Luxurious Sapphire Butterfly Bead Embroidery Kit by Abris Art AB-895

Bead a jewelled butterfly with Luxurious Sapphire, a bead embroidery kit by Abris Art — a butterfly with sapphire-blue wings framed by ornate baroque scrolls in gold, pearl and ice blue, on a dark canvas. Worked with over 4,880 Preciosa Ornela Czech glass beads in 20 colours.

A little stitcher's folklore: a butterfly visiting you is said to bring good news and transformation, and sapphire was the stone of wisdom and loyalty, worn by royalty for protection. Stitchers say a sapphire butterfly brings grace and good fortune into any room.

Why this kit: if you love opulent, jewel-like art, this compact design looks like a piece of heirloom jewellery on the wall. It's a satisfying project for confident beginners. A luxurious-looking gift for someone special.

Kit includes: natural art canvas pre-printed with the design, over 4,880 Preciosa Ornela Czech glass beads in 20 colours, a Japanese beading needle, a numbered key chart, and instructions in 8 languages. Beading thread, frame and hoop are not included.

Each bead is sewn onto its colour-marked spot on the printed canvas. Bead the butterfly's wings first, then the gold ornament around it.

Finished size: 22×22 cm (8.66×8.66 in). Elegant wall art and a thoughtful gift.
