FAQs
What is the recommended age for this kit?
This kit is recommended for children 5 years and older.
Does the set include the iron?
No, a standard household iron is required but not included in the kit.
Are the beads safe to use?
Yes, the beads are PVC-free and designed for safe crafting, though they are not suitable for children under 3 years due to small parts.
Can I make more than two fairies?
The kit is designed to create two fairies with the included pegboard, but you can reuse the beads for other patterns if you have additional pegboards.
What should I do if I run out of ironing paper?
You can use standard baking parchment as a substitute for ironing beads.
Troubleshooting
Beads are not fusing together after ironing.
Ensure the iron is set to the correct medium heat and move it in slow, circular motions over the ironing paper. Do not press down too hard.
Beads are melting too much or losing shape.
Reduce the heat on your iron and ensure you are not applying pressure for too long during the fusion process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure you have a standard household iron and a flat, heat-resistant surface. The kit is compatible with other standard bead sets of similar sizes, allowing for expanded creative possibilities. Care is simple: once the beads are fused and cooled, the fairy figures are durable and can be displayed or handled for play. Keep the beads away from very young children to prevent choking hazards, and always ensure the iron is turned off and stored safely immediately after use. Store unused beads in the original box or a sealed container to prevent them from scattering.
