Today I am going to show you how to make a Koopa Shell from Super Mario Bros. using Perler Beads. Koopa Troopa are one of Mario‘s enemies. The Koopa shell is the left over item after a Koopa Troopa has been killed or stepped on. Once the shell is left over Mario can use it to throw at his enemies. So, a Koopa Shell is an awesome find for Mario. Get your perler beads ready and let’s get started.

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.
