Perler Bead Stitch Markers

July 15, 2015

Create your own stitch markers with this quick and crafty tutorial! Made out of perler beads (also called fusion beads and hama beads), each one has the crochet hook letter size so if you put down your crochet project for awhile, you will always know which hook to use when you do get around to picking it back up.

Materials:
– Perler beads and plates (square and hexagon plates for the ones pictured)
– Iron
– Parchment paper
– Lobster clasps
– Jump rings


Start by creating your letter formations as seen below. 
I found it easiest to place beads in plates with tweezers.
The G and J (and other letters with curves) work best with the hexagon plate. 
Fill in around letters with different color beads.

Place parchment paper (or paper that comes with perler bead pack) over beaded plate and iron until beads are melted together. But don’t over do it. You will need a small hole in the upper left hand corner to attach your clasp!

Place jump ring through hole in upper left hand corner. Then attach clasp. 
You may need needle nose pliers to help bend the wire.

All done and ready to be used! Consistently putting the clasp in the upper left will allow you to keep the letters right side up.. this will help in making sure you don’t confuse the “H” with the “I.” You could also add one more bead in the “I” to make it longer and differentiated.

A fun project to work on with the kids. My oldest and I had fun crafting together today!
Oh and here is my attempt at a perler bead yarn ball. What do you think?

    Retro sunglasses are way cool! For some reason, they about scream “Beach!” at me. It’s
    probably because of
    breitling replica some hidden adolescence memory. The alien sunglasses are conceivably
    the a lot of accepted in this category, and for a acceptable reason. Wayfarers are classics. They accept a distinctive appearance with clean, simple lines, and they never assume to go out of style.Our bounded affair supply store, The Affair Station, aswell has some air-conditioned awakening sunglasses. I’ve aswell begin some at omega replica Claire’s, a alternation abundance for accessories. You ability aswell acquisition some “groovy” bargain sunglasses at flea markets, austerity stores, and backyard sales. I’ve had a harder time award bargain mens sunglasses
    online. My best antecedent for replica Oakley’s, accept it or not, is a bounded accessibility store. I’ve also begin some at ample flea markets that advertise new goods. I assumption there’s just not as big a demand for mens sunglasses.One of louis vuitton replica the a lot of accepted sunglasses for men, as far as appearance is concerned, is aviator sunglasses. Sure, women abrasion them, too, but they attending “tough” on a guy,in my claimed opinion. Of course, I anticipate alien sunglasses attending acceptable on everybody!My admired online antecedent for bargain sunglasses has some mens sunglasses, but they accept a larger alternative for women. Amazon aswell has some abatement sunglasses for replica shoes men, including shades from Timberland, Skechers, Christian Dior, Carrera, Ray Ban, Oakley, and more. These aren’t knockoffs – they’re the absolute thing. They are, however, abatement sunglasses. I haven’t apparent them in replica handbags food this cheap.

    Just made my own set– I don’t have a hexagon template, but the curved end of my heart template worked well for the “G” and “J.”

    The adoption of the FIS into service for most corporations is associated with a large change in internal culture. Corporations not only have to believe in the effectiveness of delegation of authority; they need to hire highly skilled employees to work with a client like straight talk wireless phone number, learn to measure and evaluate such work, and pay for outstanding results. Corporations must continually invest in the educational and professional development of these employees.

    ولی اگه دوست داشتین ارز دیجیتال مثل بیت کوین و اتریوم بخری بهترین گزینه استفاده از صرافی بایننس هست البته برای کسانی که ایران زندگی می کنند انتخاب یک صرافی ارز دیجیتال خیلی سخت هست و من توصیه میکنم از صرافی ارز دیجیتال دیدکس استفاده کنید

    Children can learn skills including hand-eye coordination, color recognition, basic math and counting, fine motor development, and imaginative play using Perler beads. This is an excellent activity for lengthening attention spans due to the limitless number of children’s book layout designs that are conceivable and the focus that is required for each task.
