Fuse beads are beads you melt with an iron. They're called perler beads in stores happy

Basically you follow the pattern given by looking at where each colored bead goes in either a given line or column. Then you place the paper that comes with your fuse beads (or the parchment paper you can buy at a grocery store) over the desighn and iron over it. Usually when you buy a package it comes with instructions. You can buy pereler beads or "fuse beads" at Walmart (which I do NOT suggest) or other craft stores usually in the kids department. Hope this helped happy

Fuse beads, aka perler beads, Hama beads, are a special kind of bead that you melt together using an iron. They are smaller than pony beads, and making them doesn't normally involve any string. You just place the beads onto a pegboard, place special paper over the top, and iron them.
