I've never really paid much attention to plastic fusible bead until now. These are picture construction toy kits made by companies such as Perler or Hama Beads.  

They are typically assembled on some sort of peg  system and fused together with an iron. You can also create pendants made from them.

xMeerjam on Cut Out and Keep came up with an alternative use.  She made a slit in each bead and decorated her ear buds! What a clever idea. Imagine the color combinations you can use.  This would be an easy craft project for tweens and teens.
