I made theese for a friend of mine who loves dinosaurs.
You could use theese as coasters, decorations or table placement settings :)

You'll need;
Perler/hama beads
(or perhaps you refer to them as nabbi pearls, that works too ;) )
Pegboard...a pair of tweezers if you want. -
First I made the outlining.
Sometimes I start in a corner and work my way through it all, but this is easier for this craft. -
Then I made all of the clouds.
Now you're finished with the white pearls, besides from the two white ones that goes on the eyes. -
Then I make the black outlining of the dino!
-
Fill up the lines with the color of choise. I made a darker outlining on mine.
-
Then you just fill it up with the sky-blue and the dino's color :)
-
Bring out your iron and some ironing paper / baking sheet paper.
Iron goes on medium - high, but do try the medium heat first so that you wont melt it totally at first try! -
Cover your dino!
-
Iron away!
-
Now it should be melted together.
You can choose for yourself just about how melted you'd like it to be.
LET IT REST FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS! -
Then CAREFULLY pull it of the peg board and flip it so that the ironed side is facing downwards.
-
Then cover the un-ironed side with paper...
-
...and iron that side as well!
When you're finished, be QUICK and... -
...put some weight on the perler creation!
If you don't do this quickly your creation will bend and get tilted.
Now, you don't want that, right?
Let it rest for a couple of minutes. -
Here we have some of the coasters I made!
The green one is my fav. but you can't really see it unless you click the image :D -
Ready to use as coasters! :D
-
:D
-
Here you can see them more clearly!

(you can see enlarged pictures there where it's easier to count the number of pearls for the project.)
