I feel sorry for my poor son... I've raised a boy that loves to cook, draw, and make crafts. I know he'll probably get teased because he loves to use glues sticks and has his own personalized apron. But, some woman will LOVE him because of these talents, I'm sure! Well, I know this craft passes the test, because he had a blast helping me make them. So please read on, as it's stamped with the Taylor Family Stamp of Approval!
When I first told my Mother I made a sun catcher with pony beads, she gave me the "OMGosh, what does it look like? look; then she saw it in person. Now I don't think she'd mind getting one for Christmas! If you can catch a good sale on beads, I really recommend this to beautify your windows, in a very classy way....and all with a pizza-pan.
Have a Restful Day Friends,
Hi, Cara! I found your link at Manic Monday. Aren't you the clever one! How did you happen to discover that pony beads melt?
ReplyDeleteI'll be trying this one some rainy day soon with my grandkids. Thanks for sharing!

Hello Linda! Yes, please do this with your gkids! Both of you will just love the results as they are just beautiful! Try doing it with a cookie cutter to make smaller ones; they could be used for tree ornaments, also! Thanks for your comments Linda! Cara;)
ReplyDeleteCara! This is stinking gorgeous! I cannot wait to make a few of these to hang in my windows at my new school. The windows there are large so I think what I would like to do is like three per window in different sizes. These would make fabulous Christmas gifts!!! I am bookmarking this post!!!
ReplyDeleteTobi, yes, this would be so pretty at your new school! Especially if you have a theme of colors you could make the beads the same colors to match. That would be awesome. If you make some, please take pictures so I can put them in this post! Cara;)
DeleteThis is so simple ad cute! I can't wait to make a bunch, maybe smaller, shaped ones. How hard is it to take it off the pan? And clean the pan?
ReplyDeleteArielle, that's the amazing thing...It comes RIGHT off the pan. I mean, it literally slides off with no residue or anything. I used a brand new pan, just because I didn't know what would happen with an older one. But it did come right off! Try it, because the result is sooo worth it! Cara;)
DeleteI sooo love this idea. You are so creative. I have 3 big windows in my room. I am going to have to make a few of these to help decorate. Thanks for sharing.

DeleteWhat a great idea! I haven't seen this before. Thank you for sharing. : )
ReplyDeleteYou're so welcome! Isn't it just beautiful? I haven't been able to play around with different colors as much as I'd like to, but the possibilities with this craft are endless!
DeleteCara;)
How cool!
