Sun Catchers

I can't decide if Pinterest is making my life better or worse.  I avoided getting on it for years, but I finally did for better or worse.  I got the idea for these sun catchers here. 

I used Pony Beads and filled the bottoms of a metal pie tin and a cupcake tin with a single layer of beads. Well, when I say I I mean my kids did it.  

 Then I baked them at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.  You can do it more or else depending on how bumpy or smooth you want it.

 Then we hung them by a convenient hole that formed at the top by our window.  Success!
