I built BeadsHub to make Perler bead patterns easier from images

I’m building BeadsHub, a free tool for creating Perler bead and fuse bead patterns from images.

I started it because making bead patterns is still surprisingly tedious. Makers often have to resize images, reduce colors, manually match bead colors, count beads, and prepare printable guides across different tools. BeadsHub tries to put that whole workflow in one place.

You can upload an image, turn it into a bead pattern, adjust the size and colors, preview the result, and use it as a printable guide. I’m also building a gallery so people can discover, save, and share patterns made by other creators.

The goal is simple: make it easier for hobbyists, parents, teachers, and bead artists to go from an idea or image to an actual project they can make.

I’d love feedback from anyone who has tried making Perler bead patterns before. What part of the process is most annoying for you?
