Description

It's very easy and inexpensive to make your own suncatcher with melted plastic beads. My granddaughter and I made this one in only about two hours. The worst part was the smell of plastic while the beads were melting/cooking in the oven. If you're going to make this suncatcher, be sure to open all your windows and turn your fans on while the beads are in the oven. I used a package of 550 plastic beads from Michael's. The best beads for a suncatcher are the translucent ones because they reflect the sun better than opaque beads.
