Pearls before swine

The new generation of iron-on beads is called Aquabeads. Instead of a hot iron, all you need is a few splashes of water. Top or flop? Two kids put them to the test.

In the past, I was always immensely proud of my artistic creations. My iron-on bead creations made me feel like a young Picasso. I "stuck" the picture together and my mum put the finishing touches to the artwork with a smoothing iron. Teamwork. The beads from Aquabeads work on the same principle, but the ironing part is omitted. Instead, the beads stick together by drizzling water over them. The heat-free version of the system from my childhood.

As a massive Disney fan, I see the world through rose-tinted glasses. I worship series from the 90s and consider mermaids a religion. When I’m not dancing in glitter rain, I’m either hanging out at pyjama parties or sitting at my make-up table. P.S. I love you, bacon, garlic and onions.
