I love making melted pony bead projects, but kept getting frustrated with the beads moving on the cookie sheet (any tips will be appeciated).

I experimented with tin cookie cutters and was very pleased with the

outcome.

You Will Need (7 things)

  • 1 Large Jump Ring(s)
  • Pony Beads
  • Tin Cookie Cutter
  • Tin Foil
  • Cookie Sheet
  • Fabric Paint
  • Oven

Steps (7 steps, 120 minutes)

  1. 1

    Pre-Heat Oven to 400 Degrees

  2. 2

    Cover cookie sheet with tin foil.

  3. 3

    Place cookie cutter on cookie sheet and fill with beads. Place the beads in the cutter flat. I put some beads on side to fill in gaps when I could. Melting process should take care of the gaps
    Bake for 20 minutes. Repeat for about 5 minutes if the beads don't spread enough to fuse.

  4. 4

    Remove from oven and let cool for 3-5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Remove from cookie cutter

  6. 6

    Decorate with fabric paint if needed. I used black and brown beads for angel so there was no painting involved.

    Let dry

  7. 7

    Glue large jump ring to back. (You can use anything for a hanger)
