Here’s a tiger face bursting with personality, and a great pick if you’re just starting out with fuse beads: only five colors and one bold stripe pattern across the forehead, cheeks and ears. One peg equals one bead, and I always start with the white muzzle right in the center, then work outward to the ears, keeping both sides matching. The black stripes don’t need to be perfectly identical, that’s part of what makes every tiger one of a kind! Iron gently so you don’t flatten that little brown nose. Once it’s done, this growly fellow makes a great magnet or a wall decoration for any kid’s room who loves wild animals.
