Fuse beads (Perler Beads / Hama Beads / Melt Beads) are a hands-on DIY craft material. You arrange colored plastic beads on a pegboard following a pattern, then iron them so the beads melt and fuse together. The two common sizes are 5mm standard beads (~5mm diameter — great for beginners, large pieces, and family crafts) and 2.6mm mini beads (~2.6mm diameter — finer detail, ideal for pendants and high-fidelity characters). A 29×29 design is roughly 14.5 cm with standard beads, but only ~7.5 cm with minis.
The Mard palette is grouped by color family: A (yellow/orange), B (green), C (cyan/blue), D (violet/indigo), E (pink/rose), F (red), G (brown/skin), H (black/white/gray), M (Morandi low-saturation) — 221 colors total. Codes look like A12, B3, H7: the letter marks the family, the number is the position within it. This tool is also fully compatible with the Melody bead palette.
The pegboard is the base you place beads on. Common 5mm standard sizes: 14×14 (small charm), 20×20 (medium charm), 29×29 (classic small square board), 30×30, 40×40 (large piece). Common 2.6mm mini sizes: 32×32, 40×40, 52×52, 64×64, 78×78, all the way up to 104×104 (intricate large pieces). Beginners should start with a 29×29 standard board, then move to minis and larger layouts once comfortable. Physical size = grid count × bead diameter.
Max colors: K-means clustering compresses colors to the target count (0 = unlimited) — fewer colors means easier purchasing but more lost detail. Denoise: removes grain and stray color specks from the source image. Higher value = cleaner image but less fine detail. Edge enhance: makes outlines pop. Best for cartoon artwork. Background mode: Auto (transparent PNG → empty bead slots), Remove white bg (white treated as empty), Keep everything (background also converted to beads).
A bead pattern is essentially pixel art — every grid cell maps to one physical bead. This tool down-samples your image into a pixel grid, then matches each pixel to the closest available bead color code, turning photos and illustrations into follow-along bead plans. "1:1 Pixel Faithful" mode is perfect when you already have a pixel-art source: every source pixel becomes exactly one bead.
