Using Perler Light Green in a design

Against Perler Cocoa the contrast is 6.5:1 (a clear edge) and against Perler White 1.8:1, so Light Green pops on dark backgrounds and is a gentle tint on light ones.

No other Perler color is within ΔE 3. The nearest, Perler Caribbean Sea, is ΔE 5.8 away (close), so a swap would show; buy enough Light Green for the whole design.

Across brands, Hama has the closest stand-in (Hama 11, ΔE 4.7) and Nabbi the furthest (Nabbi N22, ΔE 19.9). Nabbi's palette is small (30 colors), which limits its matches.

Pegboards and sizes for Perler Light Green

Perler Light Green belongs to Perler fuse beads (5 mm midi). It fits a 5 mm pegboard (29 × 29 pegs), and because Hama Midi, Artkal S or Nabbi beads are 5 mm too, it can share a board with them.
