Creative Suncatchers

Yet again, I was on pinterest and I found a really cool sun catcher- it was made from melted plastic beads! I decided to make it my next project endeavour...


Materials:
Plastic Bead Package ($2.44 a package at Walmart)
Foil Packs ($1 at the dollar store)


Total cost of project: $3.44


Directions:
Place a layer of beads on the bottom of each mould (the tins). Try to ensure that there aren't any holes in  the layer. Place in oven at 425 degrees for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool (about an hour). Don't be afraid if they start making "popping" noises. This is just the plastic removing itself from the tin wall. Pop out and decorate with wire/ more beads. Hang in window with fishing line. Now you have a creative and original sun catcher! Try different sizes or cookie cutters for different shapes...
