Instructions:
* Parents should assist the kids when ironing the fuse beads to prevent any injuries. Supervision is always recommended when using any hot item such as a glue gun or iron around kids.
1. Print out the pattern and use it as a guide for placing the beads on the peg board. 2. Once the heart is complete, place a piece of baking paper over the figure. Heat up the iron to a cotton setting and then iron over the paper. This will melt the beads together. 3. Let the heart dry about 3 minutes and then remove the paper. Now the heart can also be carefully removed. While warm, a couple of heavy books can be placed over it to press it flat as it will tend to curl. When cool, attach a clear string for hanging.
