I love making melted pony bead projects, but kept getting frustrated with the beads moving on the cookie sheet (any tips will be appeciated).
I experimented with tin cookie cutters and was very pleased with the
outcome.

-
Pre-Heat Oven to 400 Degrees
-
Cover cookie sheet with tin foil.
-
Place cookie cutter on cookie sheet and fill with beads. Place the beads in the cutter flat. I put some beads on side to fill in gaps when I could. Melting process should take care of the gaps
Bake for 20 minutes. Repeat for about 5 minutes if the beads don't spread enough to fuse. -
Remove from oven and let cool for 3-5 minutes.
-
Remove from cookie cutter
-
Decorate with fabric paint if needed. I used black and brown beads for angel so there was no painting involved.
Let dry -
Glue large jump ring to back. (You can use anything for a hanger)

i saw in the $store that they have these animal shaped silicone pancake makers & thought of you. If they are made for holding the mix in the shape it probably would work for ur melted beads staying inside the shape

The fumes from the pony beads are toxic. Either do it outside with a toaster oven or make sure there is a lot of venilation when you do these. I love melting pony beads too.
