Turn any photo into a fuse-bead pegboard pattern you can actually make. Beadly takes a photo from your camera roll and maps it onto a pegboard grid β€” matching every pixel to a real bead color, so you get an exact chart to follow bead by bead. When you're done placing, you have a finished piece that looks just like your photo. No guessing. No subscription. Pay once and make as many patterns as you want. Here's how it works: pick a photo, choose your board size and how many colors to use, and Beadly builds the pattern. You get a color legend, a bead-by-bead grid, and the exact count of each color β€” so you know precisely how many beads to buy and where every one goes. Export a clean printable PDF to follow at your table, or keep it on your phone as you build. Great for kids, parents, and crafters β€” birthday projects, rainy-day crafts, gifts, or turning a favorite pet or family photo into pixel art you can hang up. WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT β€’ PHOTO TO PATTERN β€” any photo becomes a ready-to-build pegboard chart in seconds. β€’ REAL BEAD COLORS & COUNTS β€” every cell is matched to a bead color, with a full legend and a per-color count so you buy exactly what you need. β€’ PICK YOUR BOARD & COLORS β€” choose the board size and color count to match your kit and your skill level. β€’ PRINTABLE PDF β€” export a clean, printable chart to follow away from your screen. β€’ 100% ON-DEVICE β€” your photos never leave your phone. No account, no cloud, no uploads. β€’ PAY ONCE β€” one price, yours forever. No subscription, no ads. Pick a photo, choose your board, start beading.
