You know those little beads that you make into shapes and then iron that we did growing up?  They still make them!  And kids still love them!  Today my two oldest have been making all sorts of designs and fun shapes.  Until recently, I never knew that they actually had a name!  They are called Perler Beads.

If you don’t know what they are, they are simple little beads that you arrange on a pegboard and then iron to make the design keep it’s shape.

My son made me a cupcake from the Perler Beads today. I love it!  Even better, it’s super sweet and carb free 🙂  I typically stick a magnet to the back and use them to hold papers and stuff to the fridge.

If you’re looking for Perler Beads for your kids, you can find some on Amazon at pretty decent prices!


Perler Beads 6,000 Count Bucket-Multi Mix for just $8.90, down from $11.79

Perler Beads 11,000 Count-Multi-Mix for just $12.97, down from $17.29

And tons more!  CLICK HERE to see all the ones available on Amazon.

Another idea is to take the 40% off Hobby Lobby coupon found HERE and pick some up in the store.  I prefer just ordering online because I know if I go in Hobby Lobby, I may never come out 🙂
