Video game ornaments

A few years ago, I made some plastic canvas ornaments for my husband. We have a tiny tree that he decorates every Christmas with the ornaments I made. He keeps asking me to making more, so maybe I’ll finally do that this year.

Most of them are Nintendo ornaments, because there are plenty of charts out there that are small and yet detailed. If I can even find PlayStation characters, they’re often quite a bit larger. Spyro is worked on a smaller count of plastic canvas, and he’s still pretty big.

Oh wow! My boyfriend would love these! All of the ones you got were just searched on the internet, right?

I may have to try to make these for next Christmas since we currently have two trees and hope to make one a kind of themed tree.

I found them on Pinterest. Try searching for perler bead patterns. Also, @TheMistressT recently brought a website called Brik to my attention, and I saw they have a lot of small charts you could use, too. :slight_smile:

Thank you, everyone! I read these comments to my hubby, and they made him happy. And of course prompted him to request more ornaments. :laughing:

Those are great! The old-school pixellation lends itself nicely to the needlepoint. :+1:
