Are you thinking of the little bits of coloured plastic that can be used to make pictures? If you search for pixel hobby you should find several sites selling the materials.

Thank you but none of this meets my expectations. I searched on my own but couldn't find anything suitable so I added a post.

Without knowing what your expectations are, it's hard to know what to suggest?

But if you could please explain why the search results don't meet your needs, then it might be possible to give better advice.

What makes Pixelparty.nl a great site for me is the preview of the artwork before you buy it (e.g. https://pixelparty.nl/shop/patroon-sets ... -letter-k/ )

Sort of local to me (it's in New Zealand) is https://www.pixelhobbynz.com/ which has previews. But you may have already come across it, because it didn't take me very long to find?

pixelparty just seems to be an alternate to pixelhobby.com -- which does have a store and does have previews. I don't see what's so special about the .nl one.

Somehow I didn't come across it earlier. It has some missing results but maybe it will be useful to me. Thank you.
