Color list

Codes are from the Slow Beads palette. With real beads, pick the closest color from your brand (Perler, Hama, Artkal…); a few spare beads of each color help.

How to make it

1. Lay the pegboard out and place beads row by row, following the chart. Starting from one corner keeps counting easy.
2. Cover the beads with ironing paper (or baking paper).
3. Iron on medium heat with no steam, moving in small circles for 10–20 seconds until the beads fuse.
4. Let it cool, lift it off the pegboard, then iron the other side lightly if you like.
5. Put a heavy book on it while it cools so it stays flat.

Kids should iron with an adult. Small beads are a choking hazard for children under 3.
