  • Today I'm making art with perler beads and showing you how to use perler beads. This was my first time using perler beads and I have to admit I really enjoyed it, I think using the perler beads to build up an images was incredibly satisfying albeit slightly fiddly! I'm not sure whether the art I made with perler beads was anything fantastic, however after looking on the official website for perler beads, I realised that you can actually make quite a lot of interesting things with them, including 3D sculptures. So feel free to let me know in the comments if you want me to whip out the perler beads again and try and make some slightly more ambitious stuff with them! And if you have any suggestions on any videos you'd like to see, then feel free to leave them down in the comments below!

    Ant, you were so calm when you dropped those beads. If that had been me, I would have totally OBSESSED about the beads not being in there own section. I wouldn't have been able to focus until they were all back as they should be. I have OCD tendencies which are so annoying! Watching you carefully put the beads all straight again was soothing to my soul lol. You said you have books you've never read? Oh my gawd, that's sacrilege hun! Books are fantastic! I practically inhale the books I read! Watching CZcams and reading books are my two favourite hobbies after crafting of course. What are your hobbies, other than crafting and making CZcams videos Ant? God bless you and all those you love. Has a great evening!

    Yes it was on a bigger peg board and you had blue hair 💙 in the very first video I ever watched of you. When I make them I turn it over and iron the other side. I don't like the holes so I melt it longer. Wonderful video! Thank you very much for shout out. My husband said I should of needle felted for you instead. I'm a bit better with that craft.. Anyway still a big fan and hope you give that crown a go. They also make great magnets

      We do, don't think we're as reliant on it as we used to be and I don't think it makes up the majority of where our power comes from unlike Australia, think we have plans to stop all coal in a couple of years time too so that's good!

  • @denisestover2416
    @denisestover2416 Před rokem +1

    It's so funny how you use pronouns. For example you explain that it would give 'us' a scare or what would 'we' do... and I always think....who? 🤔 you and the mouse in your pocket? Lol! I believe it's a British thing because I've heard other Brit's use the same pronouns. I hope you don't think I'm demeaning you - I'm not. I really like languages and the usage of them.
    Your little tree turned out very cute! Since the beads come in all those colors I wonder if you could use the beads that are somewhat translucent and create a faux stained glass design? I bet that would be pretty in the window! Maybe a stained glass Terry's Orange Chocolate ball? Do you know what I mean?
    Anyway, we still use coal burning for electricity in the US, as well. Remember that with all of the plastic environmental issues and such, it all comes down to money, sadly.
    I hope you have a great remainder of your night!

      And i'm not mad at you, or upset, or any other emotion towards, at, about, or because of you.
      I also apologise for being short. I hope your morning improves from here.
      I elaborate below on what eco activists are working on. The real ones, anyway. (The biggest group is XR - Extinction Rebellion)
      Basically, what's going on behind the scenes is much bigger than you were talking about. Yeah, we push the personal things, but we also push, lobby (when we can), advocate, and set up protests, funds, ad campaigns, create templates for calling and writing politicians, create and spread petitions all to enact widespread regulations, laws, bills, etc. to limit or ban the worst of carbon emissions, chemicals, oils, mining, and on, we volunteer in cleanup and restoration projects, along with helping create eco-friendly areas. Plus so much more.
      I know it might seem like we're only about the everyday person. But waaay more is going on. And us being all around the world makes it even more difficult to see all that we're doing.
      As an aside, it's the oil, gas, coal, car, and mining companies that have pushed personal responsibility, to distract from them, the worst offenders.
      Okay i'm done now. That's enough late-night typing from me. Thank you for your time 🧡🧡
