My Little Pony Perler Bead Patterns

Step 1
Choose your pattern and beads.
Make sure you have all the colors and amounts you need before you start.

Step 2
Arrange the beads on your peg board following the pattern.
Tweezers are not required. We just use our fingers to place them.

Step 3
Place the ironing paper on top of the finished design and iron over it.
You don't want it to melt too much, just enough to stick them all together.

Step 4
Remove the now fused together beads, turn it over, place the ironing paper back, and iron the other side.
If you're adding a string to hang your bead creation it's best to add it before this last step so the hole doesn't completely close up.

So those are my made from scratch MLP FiM Perler bead patterns. I literally filled in little circles with color one at a time. LOL. I didn't want to make patterns that were too complicated, this being my first attempt. I know software would make the process very easy, but where's the fun in that. :P

The 3 PDFs I've linked to above are for 8 1/2" x 11" paper. Two patterns on each sheet. When you print them full size you should be able to place them right under a clear or transparent pegboard and place the beads right on top. It might be a good idea to print out two copies, one for under the board and one to look at unobstructed. You could also use an opaque board and just count out how many beads of a certain color go in a row.

You'll need to use a large peg board for these patterns. Rainbow Dash just barely fit's on a small square board, but the others won't. I just made her today, using a large square board, pics are below. I didn't have the creme or light blue beads, so I used yellow and a translucent blue in their place. After ironing I realized I got one of the blue beads wrong. The center under the yellow bead should have been dark. Sigh.
