Corn Cob Brooch Bead Embroidery Kit by Abris Art AD-235

Bead a golden harvest with Corn, a bead embroidery brooch kit by Abris Art — an ear of corn with pearly cream and white kernels, wrapped in green beaded husks with a wisp of silk at the top. Worked in 14 colours of Preciosa Ornela Czech glass beads, with pearls, sequins and gold bullion wire.

A little stitcher's folklore: corn has been a symbol of plenty and fertility for thousands of years, and in many harvest traditions the last ear of the field was kept in the house for luck until next year. Stitchers say a corn brooch keeps the harvest's good fortune with you all year.

Why this kit: if you love unusual, nature-inspired jewellery, this corn cob is a charming conversation piece — and everything to finish it, clasp included, is in the box. A fun gift for gardeners, cooks and farm lovers.

Kit includes: art canvas with the full-colour design printed on it, about 313 Preciosa Czech glass beads in 14 colours, Preciosa No. 13 microbeads, 14 larger Preciosa No. 6 beads, a microbead embroidery needle, beading thread, decorative glass stones and accents (pearls and sequins), 8 cm of gold bullion wire, a decorative brooch clasp, and step-by-step illustrated instructions for the embroidery and finishing.

Each bead is sewn onto its colour-marked spot on the printed canvas. Then add the glass stones, cut the piece out along the outline and assemble it with the decorative clasp from the kit, following the illustrated instructions.

Finished size: 5.6×3.2 cm (2.2×1.26 in). A charming handmade accessory and a fun harvest gift.
