Want to make a great thing better?  Put a bird on it!

These cute little perler bead birds are a fun way to dress up windows, gifts, or even Christmas trees!  Use the included bird pattern to make birds in every color of the rainbow.

Perler Bead Birds

Materials:

• Perler Bead Bird Pattern (I included birds of all colors here, so pic your fave!)
• Perler Beads
• Perler Bead Grid
• Parchment Paper
• Iron

Instructions:

1. Using the bird pattern, plot out your bird on the grid.
   
2. Cover beads with parchment paper.
3. Run hot iron over parchment paper.  Once beads have melted, place under heavy book so piece can cool flat.
   
4. Once cooled, hang in your window and enjoy!
