DIY Perler Bead Gift Tags

If you are looking for a fun craft to make with perler beads, then these DIY perler bead gift tags from The Red Thread are a great idea. You can make them for any occasion, but I especially love them for wrapping Christmas gift. If you attach a hook or loop to the gift tag, it will also double as a Christmas ornament. This is a fun way to get kids involved in helping you wrap presents, and then the handmade ornament would be even more special.
