The largest bead picture in the world - Barack Obama
It just came to my knowledge that a Swedish company, PhotoPearls, has with the help of fourth grade students from every state in the USA and the Craft and Hobby Association, created the largest bead picture in the world!

The fourth graders used PhotoPearls® (a program where you can create a bead project from any digital photo) to create a photo mosaic of President Barack Obama made entirely of hollow plastic beads. It will be given as a gift to the president on his birthday.

The portrait was created with 372 600 pearls and measures 9 x 11 ½ foot! Amazing!

Compared to that project, my bead creations feels so small ;)
