Fuse Beads / Perler

From pixel to pegboard.

Turn pixel art into printable fuse bead patterns for Perler, Hama, Artkal, or PhotoPearls beads. Novaboard's grid canvas maps one pixel to one bead, so what you draw on screen is exactly what you'll build on the board.

Pixel canvas = bead grid

Set your canvas to the exact size of your pegboard: 29×29 for a standard Perler board, or any custom size. Every pixel is one bead. Novaboard's crisp grid rendering makes it easy to count and place each color.

Matched to real bead colors

When you export a pattern, Novaboard maps every color in your design to the closest bead in your brand of choice (Hama, Perler, PhotoPearls, or Artkal) using perceptual color matching. The chart tells you exactly which beads to buy.
