Kit de magnet à broder de perles petit format « Thé parfumé »

“Fragrant Tea” is a white cup on a lace napkin beside a spray of lilac.

What the picture shows

The cup and saucer stand a little left of centre, with a second saucer and a spoon behind. White beads lay out the rim of the cup, its side, the edge of the saucer and the wavy line of the napkin beneath. Crimson-pink beads gather into the spray of lilac lying on the left and into the border that runs around the whole canvas. The ground is pale blue lace with painted violet flowers along the edge. A light piece, with the feeling of a table laid for tea. 160 beads in two colours. Only the key lines are beaded; the rest of the picture stays as print on the canvas — that is by design, and no extra beads are needed for the background. The canvas is firm and clearly marked, so the beads sit evenly even on a square this small.

A magnet like this is often taken as a small present or as a first try at bead embroidery: there are not many beads, and the result shows within an evening. The frame in the photo is not included and is chosen separately.
