Step 1
Bead Colors Needed:
Magenta Đ 109
Yellow Đ 66
Kiwi Lime Đ 532
Light Blue - 193
See the Supply List for beads and tools you can purchase.

You will also need:
20-gauge wire - 30 inches
Pencil

Step 2
Download the PDF for the Vase of Flowers Project Pattern. You will use the large hexagon and a small circle pegboards to create your projects. If you are using a clear pegboard, slide the actual-size pattern underneath it. Place your beads following the pattern.

Step 3
Ask an adult to fuse your designs. Place your pegboard on a flat, heat-safe surface. Set a household iron to the medium setting. Place ironing paper over the pegboard. In a circular motion, begin to iron the project. When ironed properly, the beads will still have open centers. DO NOT OVER-IRON as this will cause the beads to close and can make assembly of your project more challenging. Let the design cool.

Step 4
Remove the paper and bead design from the pegboard. Flip the design over to expose the non-fused side. Repeat the fusing. Let cool completely. Once the design is cool, peel off the ironing paper. Your pegboards and ironing paper are reusable.

Note: Beads need heat for about 10-20 seconds per side to fuse evenly. Lift the paper occasionally to see how the beads are fusing. Additional heating time may be required.

Step 5
ASSEMBLY: Position the completed vase pieces at right angles to each other. Align the slots and slide together.

Step 6
Cut the wire into three equal lengths. Take each length separately and wrap it around the pencil as shown to create a coil.

Step 7
Insert one end of a coil into a bead close to the bottom of a flower. Insert the other end of the coil into a bead at the top of the vase. Bend the ends of the wire to secure the coil.
