diy To Do When Bored crafts

Turn colorful plastic pony beads into fun jewelry, suncatchers, and other creations! With the easy technique in Melted Pony Bead Art, you simply arrange the beads on metal pans and melt them in a toaster oven outdoors. For special shapes, place metal cookie cutters on the pans and fill with beads. The results are unique color-infused shapes that are durable and weather-resistant. Your choice of bead style — clear, translucent, opaque, glitter, or iridescent — will give you a variety of looks. Projects include 2 Suncatchers, a Wind Chime, a Wand, a Keychain, 2 Magnets, a Hanging Heart, a Freeform Necklace, a Flower Bracelet and Barrette, 2 Bar Bracelets, Drop Earrings, 2 Bowls, 2 Votive Holders, and a Cake Stand.
