Castle Fuse Bead Pattern
We used an extra large peg board to make this super castle. Use grey or silver beads for the building, dark brown for the door and flag posts, black for the windows and choose any colour for the flags.

Just for fun, we've created a collection of fuse bead patterns with a St David's Day theme! We've got a castle, a Welsh flag, daffodils and more, so grab your hama beads (or other fuse beads) and get creating!
We used an extra large peg board to make this super castle. Use grey or silver beads for the building, dark brown for the door and flag posts, black for the windows and choose any colour for the flags.
We have a special flower peg board which we used for this design, but you could use a set of four square peg boards linked together if necessary. This is a daffodil, but you could make all sorts of pretty flowers by varying the colours. A line of them along a windowsill would look lovely!
You will need a large six pointed star base for this daffodil. It is simply made with yellow and orange fuse beads, but it can be tricky to count so it is best for older kids. When you have ironed the daffodil and it has cooled, you could attach a pin to the back to make a pretty daffodil badge.
This sheep fuse bead design makes a super fridge magnet, badge (pin) or card topper (try a collage effect with green fabric or felt as the grass behind the sheep). It's quite simple to make and uses white, grey and black beads. You could stand the sheep on some green grass if you prefer.
We used four interlocking peg boards to make this magnificent Welsh flag design, which is suitable for older kids. You'll need green and white beads for the background, and both red and brown beads for the Welsh dragon.
