Perler Bead Madness!

May I never say that my children aren't handy and creative... Hardly a day goes by that I don't find a perler bead board on my desk to be ironed and most of the time, the stack gets quite high before I finally take care of them. :)

Here's just a few of the multitude that they've done over the past few months.

 The big arrow is an example of the new 3D patterns they're trying out.

Gabe and Ezra have made a couple of 3D planes that have wings, tails and even missiles.

Perler Creations

So the new thing for the kids is Perler Beads. I know they're not new to the rest of the world, but over the last couple of months, ours have gone nuts for them. Ezra, in particular, will scour Google images looking for perler bead patterns of planes, space ships, Marvel characters and all sorts of random stuff. Then he and Gabe will sit for hours making them.

Just a couple of the Marvel guys Ezra has done.

My only complaint is the sheer number of the things I have to spend time ironing! But, at least they're being creative, right?
