Microbead Embroidery Postcard-Envelope Kit "Unicorns"

“Unicorns” shows two unicorns in tall grass, a larger one and a very small one. They are drawn in a soft, childlike way, with big eyes and pink cheeks.

What the picture shows

Both animals are white: their bodies stay as pale print, while the beads build the manes, hooves and trimmings. The larger unicorn has a blue-lilac mane laid in long wavy rows with pink roses tucked into it, and a golden horn worked in bronze beads. The small one presses against its side, with the same mane and a gold collar. Tall green grass grows all around — single blades in two shades of green that cross in front of the animals. Lilac-blue flowers with fine petals open above and to the sides, and pink buds sit below. The pink and lilac ground stays as printing and is never covered with beads.
