With its six round petals and golden center, this pink flower is such a satisfying one to bead. On the grid, each square is one bead — just work your way row by row and let the colors guide you. I like starting with the yellow center, then building the petals outward one at a time; the symmetry practically does the work for you, and watching it come together is genuinely relaxing.
Line your square pegboard up straight before ironing: a sheet of baking paper on top, a warm iron, and small circular motions until the beads fuse together. Once it has cooled, this little flower makes a lovely fridge magnet or a bright bit of decor wherever you’d like to hang it. A gentle, easy design — great for getting the hang of things before you try something bigger.
