48-Color Pearlescent Mini Beads (2.6mm) – Dreamy Shimmer Pixel Art Kit

Not every bead catches the light. These ones do.

Pearlescent beads aren't just a color choice — they're a different kind of finish. Semi-transparent with a soft shimmer on the front and a deeper, more reflective glow on the back, they bring a quality to finished work that solid-color beads simply can't replicate.

Sunlight hits them differently. Photography loves them.

What they're made for: Mermaid scales. Ocean waves. Crushed diamond effects. Anything that's supposed to look like it came from underwater, caught in light, or dusted with magic.

One thing to know before you start: Pearlescent beads iron slightly differently from solid colors — the surface retains a subtle circular texture after fusing, which is part of the finish, not a flaw. For best results, use them throughout the entire design rather than mixing with solid-color beads. The contrast between the two finishes can look jarring — but an all-pearlescent piece? Stunning.

48 colors across two trays. 24,000 beads in total . Compatible with all 2.6mm mini fuse bead pegboards.
