  • I recorded a second video showing you how to iron Hama beads (or perler beads depending on where you live) correctly as the first craft video I made is quite old and was recorded in portrait mode so you can't see very well. The link that that video is here: • How to iron Hama beads...
    Pixel / Hama / Perler bead projects do not need to be ironed on both sides. I find that if you only iron one side (but do it well), then you get a nice front side that looks really cool - much better than melted plastic blobs on both sides of your pixel art project.
    To iron your Harma or Perler bead project, you will need:
    Hama bead project ready on the peg board.
    Hama ironing paper (or greaseproof baking paper).
    Ironing board (or suitable ironing surface)
    Iron (do not use the steam function, start on the setting in the middle then increase if required).
    You can find more Hama bead projects on my craft blog at www.emmaline.co.uk or let me know what you'd like me to cover in the comments below.

    I've always heard ironing over the pegboard will warp the pegboard itself.

    • @EmmMcAndrew
      @EmmMcAndrew  7 лет назад

      ruinawish hi, you iron over the paper, not directly on the peg board. The peg board will only warp if you use too much pressure and heat - keep moving the iron around :)

  • @EternalNyappy
    @EternalNyappy Год назад

    I feel like all stuff I've see is melted both sides. I guess baking paper to protect the board after flipping and otherwise the same process., I think it will hold together better. But I guess it is a matter of taste if you like the melted side, then it is double sided ofc.

    I have noticed that once done, in long run Hama beads keep falling apart and the design breaks. Is there anything else that can be done like a coating to keep the beads intact.

    • @EmmMcAndrew
      @EmmMcAndrew  5 лет назад +4

      Tiara Haynes-Kelly hiya, I use 2 or 3 depending on the iron. If it’s your first go at it, I’d say go low and you’ll know if the beads aren’t fusing so you can increase the temp until they start to fuse (you’ll see them start to blob out).

      Alison Keatings if you iron one side, it will show the holes on the reverse. But you can iron both sides of you want, then there’d be no holes showing at all 😊
