Frugal Fun Ideas with Brie: Melty Bead Bowls

by Breezy Brie on 09/03/2012

Get excited. These are super easy. Super fast. And way fun!
Remember Perler Beads? Or melty beads as I liked to call them? You would arrange them on a pegboard, and then iron them to get them to melt together into some shape you created. Sound familiar?
Photobucket All you need is some oven safe bowls, oil, and melty beads (oh, and an oven would help too!)
Step 1: Grease bowls (bottom and sides) so the beads will stick
Photobucket
Step 2: Pour beads into bowl and spread around. Try to not leave too many open spaces. I found it helpful to do the bottom first and work your way up to the sides.

Step 3: Bake at about 240 degrees – peek in often!
Photobucket
Step 4: When everything looks stuck together and melty {this is a very technical term, I know}, they are probably done! Let them cool.
Photobucket
Step 5: Once cool take them out! I used a fork to poke mine out – and then rinsed with water to get rid of the oil.
Step 6: Find something cool to put in your new bowls! Enjoy!

Easy, huh? Here’s a recap in a picture for you! Let me know if you make any!!
