Bead-embroider Grape with this Charivna Mit beadwork kit - a cascading cluster of deep blue and bronze pearl beads shaped like grapes, topped with a green pearl leaf and curled gold wire tendrils. Why this kit: the felt pieces create a soft dimensional finish; the templates and stitch guide make the project approachable; the finished ornament or hoop art is easy to display or give as a handmade gift. Kit includes: instruction chart, color pattern, Preciosa beads in 3 colors (3 sizes), Crystal Art beads in 10 colors (6 sizes), felt in 1 color, a fastener, and a needle. Made in Ukraine. Backing cardboard, beading thread, and glue for mounting are sold separately. Bead embroidery is worked by following the color pattern and stitching each bead onto the backing in the indicated position and shade, building up texture and shine bead by bead, with the wire shaped into curling tendrils. Once the beadwork is complete, mount it onto stiff backing cardboard (purchased separately) and attach the fastener to wear or gift. Finished size: 4.5 x 6.5 cm (1.77 x 2.56 in). A satisfying beadwork project and a natural, fruit-themed handmade gift.
