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.
Colors & Technique: Toadstool
The Toadstool design is built around 7 bead colors, with warm red (Red, Clear) carrying most of the 393 beads. On a 32Γ32 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 β the outline and facial features β for when you want full concentration. Medium heat and slow circles when ironing keep the warm red areas from over-fusing; a 20-40 minute build at medium difficulty.
Where It Shines
Where does the Toadstool pattern fit in a real collection? Its 32Γ32 footprint and 393-bead count place it in the display tier: too detailed for a first project, but a satisfying second or third build. The warm red lead color and 7-color span mean one mid-size jar of each shade covers it with leftovers. Group it with other nature designs on a pegboard wall or shadow box for a rotating exhibit.

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.
