Mini Bead Embroidery Magnet Kit "Big friend"

“Big friend” shows a large snowman and a small one beside him, both in red hats.

What the picture shows

The main figure holds the centre: a round body outlined in white pearl beads, a carrot nose, coal eyes and mouth, thin twigs for arms. On his head is a red hat with a white band, a red scarf at his neck and a red mitten on the outstretched arm. To the right, almost tucked under his arm, stands a smaller snowman in the same red hat with a pink scarf. White beads also form the snowflakes and fine snow over the pale blue ground. 156 beads in two colours. The canvas is not filled edge to edge — the beads follow the main lines and the rest stays printed, which is why the piece reads as a drawing rather than a solid beaded carpet. Preciosa beads are calibrated and even in size, so the rows come out straight without sorting them first.
