Build a little pixel art in San Francisco.
Choose your colors, place beads on a pegboard and build an image one pixel at a time. The beads are fused into a finished piece you can hang, keep or give away. A standard keychain is included.

Your design, bead by bead
Perler is a hands-on choice for a date, a day with friends or a returning hobbyist who enjoys working through a design. Materials and guidance are included; no experience is needed.
Start with a small, clear pixel-art pattern if it’s your first visit. More colors and a larger design take longer. For a family visit, tell the studio the children’s ages so we can confirm the adult role, supervision and help needed around beads and heat tools.
Pay for the time you use
- Weekdays
- $14.99 per person, per hour
- Weekends
- $19.99 per person, per hour
Members pay $10.99 on weekdays and $15.99 on weekends, per person per hour. Ask about joining at the studio for the one-time $9.99 fee and confirm your membership when paying.
Your online deposit is $9.99 per guest and comes off the studio bill. It is separate from the hourly rate and the in-studio membership fee.
A rough duration is optional. You can choose “Not sure yet,” 1, 2 or 3 hours, or “Bigger image: 4+ hours” when available. The 4+ choice is a planning request; the online estimate covers up to three hours, and the studio bills the time you actually use. Check the available start times before planning a longer project.
Make a plan that fits your visit
A small design can suit a shorter visit; a detailed piece needs more time. Choose a start time that fits your day and contact the studio if you’re unsure about a pattern or the time it needs.
For a birthday, team offsite or other private arrangement, tell us about your group before making individual bookings. Group arrangements and dates need confirmation.
