The cross stitch embroidery is worked on an easy-to-use 14 count perforated paper, further embellished with glass beads.
Perforated paper dates back to the Victorian era, and has been used by needleworkers to create embroidered pieces to be used as cards and ornaments. This paper is extremely firm and resists tearing but can be cut with scissors or a craft knife. Wrinkles can be removed using a warm iron.
Use this charming piece as a Christmas Tree ornament, gift decoration, brooch - its uses are only limited by your imagination!
This package contains 14 Count perforated paper, glass beads, stranded embroidery floss, needles and chart with instructions. Finished size: 7.6cm x 12.7cm. Recommended for ages 9 and up.
