Keep the iron moving in circles β never park it in one spot. Cover with parchment paper, iron one side, flip carefully, iron the other.
Fuzzy look? Iron slightly less on the pegboard side, then texture with a towel while still warm.

Ironing Tips
- π‘Medium heat only β too hot and the beads over-melt and lose shape; too cool and they won't fuse.
- π‘Keep the iron moving in slow circles β staying in one spot melts that area flat.
- π‘Iron both sides and press under a heavy book while cooling to keep it flat.
