Lay the beads on a pegboard following the chart, then fuse with an iron under parchment paper. Bead colors are the nearest Perler match to each sprite color — swap in a shade you prefer.

How to make your Dragonair Perler / fuse-bead

  1. Set the chart next to (or under) a clear pegboard and place one bead per square, color by color.
  2. Match each symbol to its bead color using the legend; standard 5mm “midi” beads fit most pegboards.
  3. When the design is full, cover it with ironing paper and press a medium iron in slow circles for ~10–15 seconds.
  4. Let it cool flat under a book so it doesn’t curl, then peel it off the board and iron the back for a sturdier piece.

Perler / fuse-bead FAQ

Perler, Hama, or Artkal — does it matter?

All three are 5mm “midi” fuse beads and are interchangeable on the same pegboards and charts. Use whichever brand you can get; the color names differ but any close match works.

How big will it be?

At standard 5mm beads the finished piece is the grid size shown on this page — roughly the width of the sprite in beads × 5mm. Bigger sprites may need to join multiple pegboards.

How do I iron it evenly?

Keep the iron moving in small circles over the ironing paper and check often — you want the beads fused but still showing their holes, not melted flat.
