Making pretty things ~ melted bead bowls


We enjoy making beautiful things...
Colourful, bright, and pretty

We were very taken with melted bead bowls when we discovered them 
{although I can't remember where we first spotted them}

We bought some lovely Hama beads... sparkly ones, rainbow ones and some pastels...

After greasing an oven proof bowl Dino Boy pushed the beads down...
 until there was a single layer reaching up the sides


Then into the oven it went at 200°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes


Once it was cool I peeled it away from the glass bowl
and we turned it into a hat?!


Aren't they pretty *smile*


Can't wait to make more!


Happy crafting, Kelly
