How to take a good photo

Light and table

Take the photo in daylight, near a window if you can, and without flash. Put the board on a light table or cloth without a pattern.

Straight from above

Hold the phone straight above the board, with the board in the middle and some space around it. One board per photo.

Just the board

No faces, hands or names in the photo. The name you write in the box goes under the board, so pick a first name or a nickname.

Then

We look at every photo before it goes up, and the board is cut out so that it lies on the wall like the others. If you want a board taken down later, just write to info@pearlsapp.se. Need a design for the next board? There are hundreds of bead patterns.
