We count out every single bead for this pattern, add a pegboard & ironing paper, and ship it to your door.
Made to be finished, not abandoned.
Most photo-to-pattern converters hand you a giant grid, 50+ colors and a five-figure bead count. That project dies in a drawer.
- ✖ 100×100 grid, 50+ colors picked for you
- ✖ 10,000+ beads — weeks of placing
- ✖ "Just buy the full 200-color set"
- ✖ Jars of leftover beads forever
- ✔ One 29×29 board, 12 colors max
- ✔ A few hundred beads — done in an evening
- ✔ Exact bead-by-bead shopping list
- ✔ Nothing left over, nothing missing
Want to go big anyway? The Studio scales to 58×58 and 24 colors — the defaults are just tuned so your first one gets finished, framed and posted.
New to fuse beads? Three steps.
Place
Follow the numbered pattern and place beads on a pegboard, color by color.
Iron
Cover with ironing paper and iron on medium heat for ~20 seconds until beads fuse.
Peel & flip
Let it cool under a book, peel off, iron the other side. Done — display it!
