Hello! Today, I’m going to show you how I made this apple using fuse beads. It’s a fun and creative craft that anyone can try!

Step 1

Materials and safety first Red, green, and optionally brown or black fuse beads (for the stem) Bead pegboard (square or round, depending on what you have) Parchment paper or baking paper Iron (adult supervision recommended to avoid burns)

Step 2

Placing the beads: Start with the base of the apple using red beads. Make a red circle or oval shape to represent the body of the apple. Place a brown or black bead next to the leaf for the stem

Step 3

Ironing the beads: Place parchment paper over the beads. With the iron on medium heat, move it in circular motions for about 10–20 seconds, just enough for the beads to melt slightly and stick together. Let it cool for a few minutes before carefully removing your creation from the pegboard.

Step 4

Optional: Ironing the other side To make the apple stronger, you can flip it over, place parchment paper on top, and lightly iron the other side

And that’s how you make a cute apple with fuse beads! It’s fun, easy, and creative
