Ladies and Gentlemen, due to the introduction of a new assortment to our store, we would like to present in more detail the form of handicraft that is bead embroidery.

It allows you to create unique and impressive works of weaving art. This type of creativity does not require special skills. All you need is a bit of patience and precision. Beads as a decorative element have been known since ancient times. Nowadays, they have become very popular again and are used to decorate utility and artistic fabrics. Beading is a favorite activity of people who value creativity, elegance and a hobby rooted in art.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to bead embroidery using Abris Art beading kits.

1. From the wide range of stylish and modern Abris Art patterns, choose the one you like the most. The pattern selection stage is a pleasant planning process that also determines the emotions that will accompany you during many hours of embroidery. In each set you will find everything you will need for work: high-quality artistic canvas with a precise pattern print, Preciosa Ornela beads (Czech Republic), bead needles (Japan) and instructions with recommendations and descriptions of all types used in stitch patterns (thanks to which, as the manufacturer assures, even a beginner can easily cope with embroidery). It is worth adding that on the margin of the canvas there is also a printed legend corresponding to the color of the beads and their marking in the pattern diagram. Sometimes, for better readability, the color of the symbol on the fabric  may differ from the actual color beads in the main embroidery kit. Both solutions serve to better organize work and minimize mistakes. 

2. You can stretch the canvas with the pattern onto an embroidery hoop or embroidery frame (not included). However, this is not required. You can also embroider by holding the fabric directly in your hand.

3. Thread the correct colors of beads onto the needle and thread. You can do this one bead at a time or several at a time depending on the project. Insert the needle from the bottom of the fabric and place the beads in the right place so that the bead stitch gently settles on the surface of the canvas. Do not pull the thread too tight to avoid wrinkling the fabric. Repeat the beading and embroidery process, moving from one area of the pattern to another, until the entire design is finished.

4 When the work is ready, you can place it in a frame and display it in a visible place.
