Beadlet
Every picture,
bead by bead.
Beadlet turns photos into fuse bead patterns, lets you draw your own, and guides you while you place the beads. Real bead colors, real counts, printable charts.
Free download. Make a whole project for free; Beadlet Pro is a one-time purchase.
Made for bead makers
From the first idea to the ironed piece.
Photo to pattern
Pick a photo, choose the size and the brand. Beadlet matches every bead to a real color (CIEDE2000), with background removal and smooth shading.
Draw bead by bead
Pencil, fill, lines, shapes, mirror drawing, undo. Apple Pencil on iPad, two fingers to zoom.
Looks like real beads
Every bead is drawn like the real thing, with its hole and shine. One tap shows how it looks after ironing.
Build mode
One color lights up at a time; tap beads as you place them. Board by board, with progress and a timer.
Bead list
Beads per color, bags to buy, pegboards needed and the finished size. Copy it as a shopping list.
Print at actual size
A PDF with one page per pegboard, at real bead size, so a clear pegboard sits right on top.
Your beads, your colors
Color charts for 12 palettes in 2.6, 5 and 10 mm, including MARD retail boxes (24 to 216 colors).
