Kawaii Chibi
Big head, tiny body, enormous eyes. The classic bead-sprite portrait.
Photo → beads → a box at your door
Every bead in its place.
Send us a photo you love. Bead it exactly as it is, or have it redrawn as a little character — then we post you a box with every bead you need, sorted by colour and charts included.
Bead a photo free, right now — no card, no account. An account is only for the AI.
From your camera roll to your desk
Something small, and real, that you made.
A photo you love becomes a sticker that looks like you — and then a little thing you can hold, stuck to a fridge or a laptop or given to someone.
The good kind of slow.
Two ways, your choice
Your photo, or a little character.
Bead the photo itself — instant, free, and you control the size, bead set and colours. Or let the AI redraw you in one of six styles. Either way you land in the same editor.

Bead my photo
The real photo, reduced properly: linear-light averaging, a palette chosen for your image, and blending you can dial. Pick from 13 bead ranges — Perler, Hama, Artkal, Mard, Yant, Nabbi — and the shopping list uses that brand’s own colour codes.
About a minute
Draw me with AI
Six styles at once — chibi, pixel sprite, cottagecore and more. Fewer beads, more charm, and it still looks like you.
