Step 1. Gather your supplies and pop all of your beads into the egg carton. This will help with sorting them into shape, size and colour.

Step 3. Thread the glow in the dark beads onto the pipe cleaners.

Step 4. Bend and viola! There you have your very own glow in the dark, pipe cleaner bead maze.
