From beginner basics to advanced techniques — everything you need to create beautiful Perler bead art with confidence.
The best photos for a Perler bead pattern have a clear subject, strong contrast, fewer color blocks, and a tight crop. Soft gradients and busy backgrounds turn muddy on a bead grid.
Make a MARD bead pattern from a photo: choose the MARD palette, set width and color limit, then export MARD color codes and bead counts. Keep one brand per pattern.
Large square pegboards commonly use a 29×29 peg grid. Set pattern width in PixoMosaic so a Perler-style chart matches one board or a multi-board layout.
Use your chart’s per-color counts, not a board’s maximum pegs. Read the bead color count, add a small spare on dominant colors, then buy or sort.
Turn a sprite or icon into a Perler-style fuse-bead chart. Keep flat colors, set pattern width, and export one brand’s codes plus bead counts.
Learn why Perler, Hama, and MARD color codes should stay on separate charts, and how bead color counts and a printable chart keep one brand buildable.
Use PixoMosaic to turn a photo into a fuse-bead chart: choose a workable image, upload it, tune the grid, read the color counts, and follow an export-ready guide on a pegboard.
Choose a practical color range and grid size so a PixoMosaic fuse-bead chart stays readable and buildable with the beads you have.
Learn what the PixoMosaic preview grid and color counts are for, and how to use an export-ready chart while you place fuse beads.
