In this video, I’m making a colored square string portrait of Stylish Star Allu Arjun using multiple thread shades to build the face and details layer by layer. I show how I set up my base with a 20x20 inch green MDF board (17 mm thick) and create the nail grid using nails from 6 mm cable clips. The main focus here is how colored threads change the whole look—instead of a single-color silhouette, I use black, yellow, white, red, and cyan so the portrait gets depth and a more “poster-like” finish. I also share the exact thread type I prefer for this kind of clean line work: polyester thread (weight 80 / Tex 18). It gives me consistent tension and sharper edges, which is really important when you’re working inside a square frame and want the portrait to look neat from a distance. If you want the same colored square portrait templates I use, you can order them from me, and if you have questions while trying it, you can drop a comment or reach me at crafts.genie@gmail.com. Happy crafting!
