help attaching two perlers together????

so i found a cool perler pattern for some cat ears and i edited them to my liking and rlly wanna make them, but i had the idea of making two pieces of them (so four total), and then somehow attaching them together to make a front and back. so the back piece would be all grey like the back of a cat's ear and the front piece would have the pink inside like the front/inside of a cat's ear, so each ear is double-sided.

idk how i would go about attaching them together tho.

i was thinking i could iron both the front and the back, and then quickly squish them together while theyre still hot and leave them to cool like that, kinda so they fuse together if that makes sense, but im afraid that the beads wont melt to be goopy enough to do that.

i could also use a hot glue gun, but since i know how hot glue is im afraid theres gonna be a noticeable gap between the ears.

i really want the attachment to be seamless (or almost seamless) with minimal space in between the pieces.

any help is appreciated 514c877238924_rainbowsmile.gif

if you do glue, only do it in teh sort of middle so that its not noticable when you push them close together

i make 3d perler stuff and personally to attach things i use sticks from q tips :3 toothpicks and stuff work aswell!
so you can just make a hole in the perlers and stick em together like that!
hope this helped w02
