Emerald August Butterfly Brooch Bead Embroidery Kit by Abris Art AD-035

Bead a jewel-toned butterfly with Emerald August, a bead embroidery brooch kit by Abris Art — wings of green and gold beads set with emerald, sapphire and pink crystals that flash like a summer garden. Worked in 12 colours of Preciosa Ornela Czech glass beads.

A little stitcher's folklore: a butterfly visiting you is said to bring good news, and emerald was the stone of spring, love and renewal. Country lore says the first butterfly you see in summer tells your luck for the season — a bright one means a happy one. Stitchers say this one guarantees it.

Why this kit: if you love rich colour and sparkle, this butterfly delivers — and it's quick and beginner-friendly. A lovely gift for someone with an August birthday, or anyone who loves green.

Kit includes: art canvas with the full-colour design printed on it, about 555 Preciosa Czech glass beads in 12 colours, beading needles, beading thread, and instructions with a finishing guide. A brooch pin and backing are not included, nor are the stones shown in the photos.

Each bead is sewn onto its colour-marked spot on the printed canvas. When the beadwork is done, follow the finishing guide to cut it out along the outline, then mount it as a brooch with a backing and pin of your choice.

Finished size: 7×4 cm (2.76×1.57 in). A sparkling handmade accessory and a thoughtful gift.
