A new type of piece

A while ago, I came across a Starry Night turned into beads. I loved it. So I came in contact with the girl who made it and another girl and between them, I got the pattern to make it. Over the past several days, I have been working on it every chance I get.
So I decided, I would show you guys the piece in steps.


So thank you to Darlaa and MagnetGames for the help. I love this piece.

One thing I realized about this piece is that I am not taking the time to iron anymore. Every time I do a project, I try to speed through the ironing process that I am not doing it well and beads are falling out and having to be put back in. My goal is to try and slow down when ironing and take my time.
I learn something new every day.

  2. I guess I didn't realize Perler beads had become such a *thing*--I remember a roommates daughter making some things years ago and thought they were just kid's toy. I see now I needed to update my facts :)
