Fusing Instructions—Only Adults Iron

1. Place your pegboard on a flat, heat-safe surface.
2. S et a household iron to the medium setting. Place ironing paper over the
pegboard. In a circular motion, begin to iron the project. Do not press down
with the iron. As the beads begin to fuse, you will see circles of the beads start
to show through the paper. When ironed properly, the beads will still have an
open center. Let the design cool.
3. R
 emove the paper and bead design from the peg board. Flip the design over
to expose the non-fused side. Repeat step two. Let cool completely. Your
pegboard and ironing paper are reusable.
NOTE: Beads need heat for about 10 seconds per side to fuse evenly. Lift the paper occasionally to see how the beads are fusing.
Depending on the size of the project, additional heating time may be required.
