I make perler bead things and sell them. This website has been a big help!

For more patterns, just search google for what you want. For example, for a baseball perler bead pattern, search "baseball perler bead pattern" on google.

There are lots of free Perler Beads patterns at the Fuse Bead Software website (use Google to search for "Fuse Bead Software"). You do not need to purchase the software to use the patterns, but the software will allow you to print a color key, search/replace colors, add/remove beads, print the pattern larger, etc. You can also use the Fuse Bead Image Converter program to create your own designs from an image file (clipart, photo, drawing, etc.).

Many kids also love to create Perler Bead designs with a computer before sitting down a placing their beads. There's a great Windows program for this at www.FuseBeadSoftware.com. The software is sold by many Perler Beads retailers (such as KoolStuff4Kids.com) but you can also buy it direct from the manufacturer.
