Perler Bead Soccer Designs
Kids will have a blast putting together different soccer designs out of melty beads.
There are only a few supplies that you need, with some being optional.
Check out the full list of materials below before you begin making any soccer Perler bead patterns.
Materials:
- Perler Beads
- FREE Perler bead soccer templates
- Iron and Ironing Board
- Parchment Paper
- Perler Bead Pegboard (optional)
- Perler Bead Sweeper (optional for a quick clean up)
Once you have all of the necessary materials, log into the Freebies Library and find the soccer-themed Perler bead patterns.
Instructions:
- Locate the FREE soccer Perler bead templates in the Freebies Library and print them out using a printer.
- With a Perler bead pegboard (or just on a flat surface), arrange the beads to look like one of the soccer designs. Little ones may find it easier and more fun to use the optional Perler bead pen dispenser. This will help when placing the beads in the correct pattern.
- Once the beads match the design, carefully cover it with a piece of parchment paper.
- Adults: Set the iron to the medium setting. Once it is good and warm, firmly (yet gently) press down on the bead pattern to fuse the beads together for about 10-15 seconds. It helps to slowly move the iron in a circular motion as you press down. Once the beads are melted together on the one side, feel free to flip the project over and melt the other side.
Note: Only one side of the project needs to be fused for the design to stay together.
- You did it! The soccer Perler bead project is complete!
- Turn the soccer design into a keepsake magnet or coaster. If you’re feeling extra creative, make all of the soccer patterns, grab a hanger and some string, and put together a one-of-a-kind soccer mobile!
If you and your littles are looking for some unique inspiration, try incorporating different types of beads into your patterns.
