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: Fireworks
Color planning comes first on the Fireworks pattern: sort your Red and Yellow stock before you start, because those two shades alone account for the majority of the 62-bead count across 7 colors. The 14Γ14 layout means each pegboard row takes roughly 1-2 minutes once you hit a rhythm. Iron both sides and press under a book while cooling so the finished piece stays flat for framing or keychains.
Where It Shines
Think of the Fireworks chart as a 10-20-minute project with a display payoff: the 14Γ14 grid, 62 beads and 7-color palette produce a piece with enough presence for a desk or shelf on its own. The yellow zones photograph well under warm light β worth remembering if you share makes on social media. Pair with simpler seasonal charts when teaching kids or running a craft night; mixed difficulty keeps a group engaged.

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.
