Schmuck-Bastelset „Flauschiger Traum“

Fluffy dream is a bumblebee with a black-and-white fur body and turquoise wings — the largest piece in this batch.

What the picture shows

The head and thorax are a black pompom, the abdomen a white one, and together they give the fluffy mass bumblebees are loved for. The lower pair of wings is covered with round turquoise sequins set overlapping like scales, so the surface shimmers. The upper pair is clear silvery mesh with a glittering edge and thin veins that echo a real wing. The legs and antennae are strands of black beads with grey pearls and gold rings threaded in. Eleven colours stay within black, white, turquoise and silver. The beads do not cover the whole area: part of the shape is fabric and fur, and the base shows between the beads.
