I have the french doors in my living room. The living room is separated by a large fireplace. It goes out into a sunroom.
HI Kathy,
Here's one from another Hometalk member with pony beads.

Here's another one that is a video using craft beads. This one doesn't show how to create a design, but that would be your choice. Wishing you the best.

Be sure the beads don't give off any fumes while melting; just to be on safe side work with open windows/doors.
You could try using Perler beads, which are fusible and intended to be melted: https://www.wikihow.com/Use-Perler-Beads
This is a really cool video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kL4T16kJEBI
