Perler beads~

[HopefulOTaKu]

okay so I have become a perler bead addict over the last week and my brother told me that I should sell them so I set up a page on livejournal, but I am am a little worried about it because the designs aren't MINE and I dont know if I should make money off of them. I don't know how to pixelate pictures, so I just look up perler bead designs on google images and copy the ones other people have done... but it wasn't their character either, so i'm not really strealing from them. Plus I am only charging for the labor and the supplies. For large pics, you go through a ton of beads xD

tell me what you think plz

anyone else really into them right now? and what was your hardest project or the one you love the most?

My friend Tony goes through phases with perler beads and he has a lot of fun with it. There are countless websites that sell perler bead art, like Etsy, so I don't think it's a big deal if you sell a perler bead version of Donkey Kong or something.

If you have a camera I'm sure everyone would love to see some of your work!

[color="#9932CC"][font="Microsoft Sans Serif"]Looking at your pics makes me wanna try this myself. I've not done anything arts-and-crafts-y in forever.

I'm especially digging the Nintendo characters and the Pokeball you got there. Very nice~[/font][/color]
