Fuzzy look? Iron slightly less on the pegboard side, then texture with a towel while still warm.
Princess Peach: Gaming's Original Damsel Turned Hero
Princess Peach Toadstool debuted in Super Mario Bros. (1985) as the princess Mario must rescue. However, Peach has evolved far beyond her damsel-in-distress origins β she starred as the playable hero in Super Princess Peach (2005) and most recently in Princess Peach: Showtime! (2024). Her iconic design β golden crown, blonde hair, pink dress β was created by Yoichi Kotabe and has remained remarkably consistent for four decades. She is one of the most recognizable female characters in video game history.
Design Notes: Crown, Curls, and Pink Dress
The 14Γ16 grid captures Peach's three defining features: the golden crown with jewel detail at top, her signature blonde side-curls framing the face, and the pink dress bodice. The 7-color palette requires careful transitions between the yellow hair, pink dress, and skin tone. The crown's jewel (a single blue or red bead) is a 1-pixel focal point. This pattern is popular for its elegance and is a must-have in Mario character collections.

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.
