My wife and I have been making some sprite art out of those fuze beads over this summer break. Hot glued some magnets on the back and stuck them on our fridge. We liked it so much that we ordered $50 worth of beads directly from Perler.

Thanks Dan! If anyone wants, I could scan some of these to use as templates.

Do you have individual shots of these? I ask because every now and then we could use images like that to illustrate Bitmob stories...
