Description Takahashi Ai - Ex-leader of Morning Musume.

I managed to get through several TV series while making this, and I'm quite happy with how it has turned out.
I shall be attempting to iron it when I'm feeling brave.

How did you get all the colours right? Did you use software?

You can find the program I used if you google "perler dolkow".
I believe there's plenty of similar apps for apple devices, but I don't own any.

i hope you iron it soon ^.^
one way i do it is i take several of the big wax papers and cover the whole thing and iron it that way so u dont have to keep moving it around. much easier and alot less stress if u ask me.

I actually ironed it ages ago! The ironing turned out fine, but I didn't like how the colours turned out. Looks the same as unironed really.
I normally use a huge piece of ironing paper that I bought for such pieces, and I used that this time along with the masking tape method.

Are these like... Tiny beads? Smaller than the average bead?

Yea, they're Hama Mini beads. 'Regular' beads are 5mm in diameter; the ones I use are half that size.

I think these look better un-ironed in most cases.
(seriously, it will pretty much look the same, unless it gets ruined )
