A Spotted Canary Project by Spotted Canary Creations

17 September 2009

Use the very versatile Perler Beads to create this fun and decorative mobile. Swap out the pattern and colors used to match any theme or decor!

Instructions

STEP 1:

Design Perler Bead birds and spots (or other design elements) as desired.

STEP 2:

Place ironing paper over beads and iron for about 10 seconds, moving iron in a circular motion. Let cool.

STEP 3:

Attach bead designs to embroidery ring using monofilament.

STEP 4:

Cut three lengths of monofilament and tie each an equal distance from the other. Gather all three and tie into a knot to create hanger.

STEP 5:

Tie ribbon to birds, spots and hanger monofilament lengths.

STEP 6:

If your beads seem a bit wobbly, iron the top of the design quickly and lightly after it’s tied onto the monofilament. Don’t forget the ironing paper.
