We have been very excited this week to begin creating our crafts for the Summer Fayre. We have begun creating magnets for fridges, radiators or dish washers using Hama Beads. We have tried to make our magnets using our knowledge of pattern. Hama Beads are quite tricky as they are so small and fiddly so we are practising our patience and perseverance to complete them!
