Keep the iron moving in circles — 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.

Colors & Technique: Castle Tower

The Castle Tower design is built around 7 bead colors, with deep dark (Gray, Black) carrying most of the 503 beads. On a 32×32 grid that density keeps large areas in single-color runs, so you can fill the background zones while watching a show and save the detail rows — the outline and facial features — for when you want full concentration. Medium heat and slow circles when ironing keep the deep dark areas from over-fusing; a 20-40 minute build at hard difficulty.

Where It Shines

Think of the Castle Tower chart as a 20-40-minute project with a display payoff: the 32×32 grid, 503 beads and 7-color palette produce a piece with enough presence for a desk or shelf on its own. The deep dark zones photograph well under warm light — worth remembering if you share makes on social media. Pair with simpler mario charts when teaching kids or running a craft night; mixed difficulty keeps a group engaged.

Ironing Tips

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