Girl Scouts

"I am a Girl Scout Leader and 1 year we made swaps (which are little pins made from anything) with Perler Beads. The girls loved it and made little flags, smiley faces, rainbows, etc... They were a big hit at Camporee where they swap with other girls from other troops. All the other girls at camp loved them and were always asking to swap with our girls!" ~Deb from CT

Perler Beads are inexpensive and colorful, and you can customize your designs in any way you like. Choose the colors of your troop or make fundesigns. Each SWAP truly is an individual expression of the giver.
