Perler bead pistol shrimp

My pistol shrimp

I got an A+ for this art homework

 This is a pistol shrimp made out of perler beads, I made the design myself. I hope you can use my design to inspire you. My mom assigned me and my sisters to create a sea creature out of peeler beads. She had an entire unit study planned out for me and my sisters. We studied sea related spelling words, learned about explorers of the sea and submarines. We watched documentaries. We even ate creatures of the sea (sprite, with Swedish fish, and blue food coloring). Then each of us wrote a paper about the creature we chose.

Easy design

I drew this graph for all who wish to use my design, for creative projects, or for your own homeschool inspiration.

What you will need

These are the perler beads I used if you want to try and match the colors I used.

In this photo you can see the plates I used.
