Ironing beads NABBI® basic colour mix contains 1100 beads. Ironing beads can be used to create simple bracelets or necklaces, as well as various decorations, ornaments, charms or pictures — whether using wire, nylon line, or heat on special connecting pegboards, where the beads are fused into a single piece using baking paper and an iron. Crafting with ironing beads delights adults and especially children, for whom arranging designs and working with beads develops fine motor skills. Suitable for children aged 5 and up, but given the size of the beads and the possible use of an iron, we strongly recommend adult supervision during crafting.
