Step 1
Use the pattern to create the Perler® charm for the necklace, or create your own design. Use the square pegboard. 
 
Step 2
Place the beads onto the square pegboard as shown in the pattern. 
Step 3
ADULT: Follow the package directions for ironing/melting the beads. Be careful not to over-melt the beads so that you still have holes in the beads to thread the cord through. Let cool.
 
Tip: Create your own pattern! Just make sure the beads touch so that they can melt together. 
Step 4
Measure a length of cord 24" - 30" long. Thread the cord through 2 of the top holes from the front to the back and adjust the length desired. Tie a knot behind each hole. Trim the excess cord from the knot.
