How it works

Your image is downscaled to a bead grid, then the colors are reduced (median-cut quantization) to the number you pick — just like planning a perler-bead or cross-stitch project. The color chart tells you exactly how many beads of each color you need. Everything runs locally; your image never leaves your device.

Tips

Simple, high-contrast images work best. Fewer colors and a smaller grid are cheaper and faster to build; more colors capture detail. Download the pattern PNG to print or follow on screen.
