Giraffe

With its long neck and sweet spots, this giraffe is a fun change from the usual round designs in our fuse bead packs. I designed it for a classic square pegboard, so you just follow the grid hole by hole, one bead per peg, and you will never lose track between the neck and the four legs. Workshop tip: start at the head and work your way down, it is much easier to keep the proportions right and stop the neck from leaning sideways. Once ironed, this tall giraffe looks lovely hung on a wall, but it works just as well as a cheerful piece of decor for a kids room. A great project for practicing the little details before tackling even bigger patterns.
