In this post I’m going to show you how to make Mario Mushrooms from Super Mario Bros. with Perler Beads.  Anyone that has ever played any of the Super Mario games knows that there are several different Mushrooms that do different things for Mario.  There is the Mini Mushroom that makes a player shrink and helps them get into tiny spots.  There is also the 1-up Mushroom that gives a player extra life.  And then, of course, there is the Super Mushroom that makes the player become bigger and stronger.  Today I am going to show you how to make all three with Perler Beads.

Step 1

Use template to place perler beads in the right location.  Then carefully take the board to an adult who can iron it for you.

 

Step 2

Ask an adult to iron the first side on medium heat.  Place wax paper over the beads.  Then for 30 seconds, iron in a circular motion.  Let cool for a few minutes and then come back to it.

 

Step 3

After cooled… Turn plate over and take item off of plate.  Now adult can place wax paper over back side of item and iron this side for 30 seconds as well.

 

There you go…. you just finished making all three kinds of Mario Mushrooms.  Also, please check out our other Super Mario Bros. with Perler Beads crafts and make the entire Mushroom Kingdom.
