Suncatchers

When boredom strikes during Summer vacation the internet is a lovely tool to find something interesting to do when it's just a touch too warm outside to play.

Pony Bead Suncatchers.. I'd rate them as EASY .. my 6 & 11 year old girls loved putting the beads into the molds, time from start to finish for us was approx 1 hour.  My only suggestion is have a drill handy if you do not have a metal bead to create a hole or want to string them together as I did.  Oh and a couple fans to air the kitchen.  Plastic is stinky while it's melting.  This is an open window project for sure.
