Perler Bead Laughing/Crying Emoji Fridge Magnet
Summer is still in full swing, and the kids don’t go back to school for a few more weeks. So for us we’re still trying to find things for our teens to do. Even though my kids are teens they still love doing kid things, and these perler bead emoji provide just the right amount of entertainment. It doesn’t take long to do these emojis so your child won’t get bored, and they can do most of the work themselves. Your kids are sure to enjoy making this laughing/crying emoji. For my Silhouette Cameo users, you can easily personalize these by placing vinyl names on the front or back. If you have a Silhouette or other vinyl cutting machine be sure to join my Rockin The Silhouette With Beads Group, where you will find other perler bead projects.
