I found some of these patterns on these sites and also in one of the Perler Mega Ideas books, while others I came up with on my own.
Materials:
*Fuse bead kit (e.g. Perler beads kit)
*Iron
*Black felt
*Black embroidery floss
*Scissors
*All purpose adhesive
Directions:
*Arrange beads on a small square peg board, following the patterns shown above for guidance.
*Cover your pattern with a sheet of waxed paper and iron the first side, then remove from the peg board, flip over, put waxed paper on top and iron the second side. You can find more detailed directions here.
*For the octopus coaster, glue a scrap of black felt to a piece of black embroidery floss to create an eye patch.
*Thread the embroidery floss through the holes in the coaster and tie in the back to fasten it to the octopus's head.
*Glue the eye patch in place.
