Problem and solution
A photo can become a much more personal craft than a generic template. The trick is making the photo simple enough for beads. The generator cuts away the background, fits the subject to a board size, and maps the colours into a bead-friendly pattern that can be followed step by step.
Problem
Photos often have too much detail for children to turn into a small bead project by hand.
Solution
The photo-to-pattern workflow simplifies the image and turns it into a grid with colour information and preview output.
