Jewellery Projects Guide Mini Hama Bead Earrings
Supplies:
Mini Hama Beads Tweezers Mini Hama Bead Peg Board Grease Proof Paper Fish Hook Earring Wire Jump Rings An Iron
Mini Hama beads are a lot of fun, as you can arrange them in any way that you like and then “set” the design by slightly melting them with the iron. If you like, you can use them to make fun earrings of your own design. Simply place the beads onto the mini pegboard using the tweezers. Once you have arranged them into the earring design that you like, place the grease proof paper on top and iron them. If you are making this jewellery with children, make sure that they have adult supervision and that they know not to touch the iron when it is hot! Make sure to let them cool down before you handle them. Once they are cool, attach them to a fish hook ear wire by using the jump rings. Now you have your own pair of unique homemade earrings!
