Description 


Instructions 
  1. 1
    Step 1

    Lay a sheet of tin foil out on to a baking tray and arrange the beads in to a heart formation. You have to use really cheap plastic beads for this otherwise they wont melt and make sure to place them tightly together. Place the tray with the beads in the oven and bake at the highest heat.


  2. 2
    Step 2

    Remove the tray from the oven every ten minutes and squeeze the beads more tightly together, they will begin to melt and stick, while shrinking in size. Bake for half an hour, until the beads are nice and stuck, then remove from the heat and leave to cool.


  3. 3
    Step 3

    Place the cooled heart on to a piece of paper, take a ring base and cover the surface with super glue. Place the ring base down in to the middle of the heart and leave until the glue dries and the heart is secured in place.


  4. 4
    Step 4

    Voila, a cute heart ring! You can use this technique to make all kinds of shapes and designs.
