r/PerlerBeads

Ironed it way too long, and the heat was way too high.

Couldn't resist sharing how these turned out!

Nooo I thought the box was closed, then it fell on the floor and it all got mixed up 😫😖 at least it’s kindaaa colour coordinated. I know myself and my ass is NOT sorting them through. Any ideas on bead projects with randomly located colours??

Clearly I liked the pilot and want more.

Hey guys! I'll be making my own collection of Pokemon Fuse-Beads and will try to document everything and make a timelapse of making all the Pokemon.

I got inspired be seeing the Eevee set at one point, so I made my own diagrams and plan on making one for everything.

Hope you can follow my progress, and even support at some point | Youtube | Facebook | Tiktok

I'm from Brazil, I started this hobby recently, and as many of you probably know, we in Brazil don't have access to the traditional and more famous bead brands. Therefore, we're forced to buy from marketplaces, both national and international, like Shopee and Aliexpress.

I personally buy internationally through Shopee, and I've had many problems with color inconsistency, especially with white; in large fills, the difference between some pieces is visible.

So, I want to know from you, dear Brazilian friends and those of other nationalities without access to famous brands, where do you buy your beads? What are your experiences? Please share them here.

Eu sou do Brasil, comecei nesse hobby a pouco tempo e como muitos aqui devem saber nós do Brasil não temos acesso às marcas de "beads" tradicionais e mais famosas. Sendo assim nos sujeitamos a comprar em marketplaces sejam de venda nacional seja de venda internacional, como Shopee e Aliexpress.

Eu, pessolamente compro internacional pela Shopee, e tenho tido muitos problemas de inconsistência nas cores, principalmente na cor branca, em grandes preenchimentos fica visível a diferença entre algumas peças.

Sendo assim quero saber de vocês queridos amigos brasileiros e de outras nacionalidades sem acesso às marcas famosas, onde vocês compram? Quais suas experiências? Compartilhem aqui, por favor.

Last year I remembered that perler beads existed so I played around a bit. I made the Pokéballs to be used as coasters for glasses and mugs, but I found out that they were rather slippery when I placed a glass on them.

Do any of you use your creations as coasters and made the same experience? Is there a way to make them less slippery?

(Next time I'll try to let the beads melt properly when ironing, so that no holes are left. I hate how these look with holes in them, haha)

like 10-25euro some of them take so many hours🥲

I cannot for the life of me use these tweezers, I just end up with either no beads coming off or all of them coming off at once 😭 I've been practicing for days with no improvement

It took a solid seven hours, and it was no walk in the park!
