The I'm Green Jumbo Iron On Beads – Pack of 5000 is an eco-friendly craft resource designed for creative fun while promoting environmental awareness. Made from bioplastic sugar cane, these beads are a sustainable alternative to traditional plastic, offering all the versatility of iron-on bead activities with a reduced environmental impact.
With a larger bead size (10mm x 9mm x 5mm inner diameter), these Jumbo beads are easier to handle, making them ideal for young children aged 3+. The pack includes a vibrant assortment of 10 colours: white, yellow, orange, red, purple, pink, blue, green, brown, and black—perfect for open-ended crafting, colour sorting, and pattern-making.
Children can arrange the beads on compatible jumbo bead boards (sold separately), then cover with ironing paper and—with adult supervision—fuse the design using a household iron (no steam). Once cooled, the result is a flexible, solid decoration or accessory. These beads are excellent for creating jewellery, key tags, ornaments, placemats, coasters, and even 3D models like boxes and bowls. For younger learners or non-iron users, they can also be used for threading and stitching activities.
