You’re going to love these 20+ Christmas tree perler beads, perfect for holiday crafting with kids! Get a variety of cute hama bead patterns for the holidays.
Recently I shared with you some Christmas and then some Santa perler beads, and guess what? I’m back with more. More perler beads for the holidays, that is.
Because the truth is, I absolutely love them. My nieces and I are obsessed, and it’s one of our favorite kids Christmas crafts.
And now I’ve got more bead patterns for you: this time it’s Christmas tree perler beads! Kids are going to love making these for the holidays.
No matter what kind of tree you’re looking for or age of child you have, you’re going to find something on this list. I start off with the smaller patterns and you can scroll down further to get the more advanced ones.
There are Christmas trees with lights, stands, vintage colors, and more. If you want to make a holiday tree out of beads, I know you’ll find something in the patterns below.
If you’ve never tried perler beads before, they are recommended for ages six and up. I haven’t met a kid that doesn’t love them (also known as hama beads, fuse beads, or melty beads). But don’t be shy about jumping in – adults love them too!
Christmas Tree Hama Beads
Make sure to check out these notes:
- A few of these patterns are larger than a 29 x 29 pegboard, so you’ll either need a extra large pegboard (49 x 69 tall) or to put multiple square peg boards together to form a larger “canvas.”
- Some of these patterns also use either small star pegboards or hexagon pegboards, which you’ll definitely want in your arsenal just generally speaking.
- You’ll see a couple of the pattern backgrounds below aren’t white – that’s simply to give contrast so you can see where all the white beads should go. You don’t need to add the background (but you can if you want to).
