Pick a zone, pick a bead
Tap a zone (or the template itself), then pick from the 32 standard bead colors or a custom one, snapped to the bead you'd actually buy — the template above, the chip and the materials list all update together.
Make it yours, bead by bead
The board opens as the blue alien hug itself, every color area where it belongs. Pick a color, then click — or drag in any of the eight directions — and the brush carries it along your stroke. Turn on Mirror and every stroke lands on both halves of the board at once, so symmetric designs repaint in half the time. The eraser wipes beads back to white, Clear all empties the whole board, and the list below always counts exactly what's on it.

How to make the Blue Alien Hug
- Print or load the template. The zone letters in the blank template match the zone list above — every bead knows which zone it belongs to.
- Pull the beads. Neon Blue ×390, Dark Blue ×290, Toothpaste ×153, Carnation Pink ×134, Dark Spruce ×59, Cobalt ×55, Cocoa ×36, Tomato ×25, Blush ×14, White ×13 — that's 1169 beads for the reference colors, plus a few spares if you're customizing.
- Place by zone. Work one zone at a time on a 43×46 area of your pegboard; the letters keep you oriented even if you invent your own palette.
- Iron both sides. Ironing paper over the beads, medium heat, no steam, 20–30 seconds per side, then weight it under a book while it cools.
