Switching to Artkal Beads? (My First Impressions!)

  • Thank you to Artkal Beads for collaborating with my channel and sending these supplies to allow me to make more videos! They will be very useful in my upcoming projects! Just want to clarify that I am NOT being paid by Artkal to make any videos, but the supplies sent to me will be used in making a few videos that will require Artkal beads to complete. There have always been some perler bead projects that I've been holding off on making because I don't have the correct colours to make them. A lot of Minecraft figures use colours that I don't have and won't look good without using those colours so it feels really nice to finally have the opportunity to design some new figures.This is just a summary of my first impressions on Artkal beads. I will be doing an in depth comparison of Perler vs Artkal which will look into prices and other factors eventually...

    Hey everyone! I'll be making more bead projects using Artkal's unique colours so please stay tuned for those! This video actually has an underlying theme to it. Can you guess what the sprites in this video have in common?

    Just to clarify, since some of you are wondering how I got these beads, Artkal collaborated with my channel by sending me these supplies and in return, I am making a few videos that I've always been wanting to make using Artkal's amazing selection of bead colours. If you want to know more about Artkal, you can check out their website or social media for more information. I am not a spokesperson for the brand; I contacted Artkal to see if they wanted any video creators to review their beads and that is how I received them. :)

  • @komb4806

    You have convinced me! I love my mini Perler beads, but so many colors are exclusive to the kits! I've placed an order for the greyscale set and all the awesome pegboards, minus the small square, I have a tom of those from trying to stock up on special colors...

  • @Aw_tig
    @Aw_tig Před 5 lety +3

    Wow I love that they have so many colours. I currently use Perler beads but often wish there were more colours so may have to get some of the Artkal beads. Have you tried using both brands together in the same creation, I just wonder if there is any difference or you would be able to tell if I use my existing Perler beads with Artkal ones

    do you iron on the shiny side? or is the shiny side down and you iron on the matte side?

    • @QDCrafts
      @QDCrafts  Před 7 lety +2

      yuppicoha5 for these sheets there are stickers that tell you which side to iron on. I can't even tell the difference between the two sides of the plastic sheets, neither side looks matte and I don't think it will cause a huge issue if you iron on either side! ☺

    Have you tried to fuse perlers with the artkal beads? They look like the same thickness and would work good together , but I have never heard or used artkal beads. Would love to hear your feed back before i venture down this road.

    • @QDCrafts
      @QDCrafts  Před 6 lety +1

      I've still been experimenting with both brands and they do fuse pretty well together. My Emoji tissue box holder in another video was made up of both artkal and perler beads so check that video out if you want to see if there is a difference! I will try to make an Artkal vs. Perler video when I'm not busy with school so that you can get a closer look at the beads fused together!
