Beadwork Kits

First in a new series of designer kits for you to enjoy. Heather's Vintage Inspired designs are all based on the finest costume jewellery of the past, re interpreted in beads with a modern twist. The techniques are simple if you are already comfortable with the basics of beading. These kits are not suitable for absolute beginners. There are four designs in the Vintage Inspired series, each available in three delicous colourways.

Heather's designer kits come complete with full instructions, all the beads, findings and materials you will need to make the design, including beading needles and threads. You will need to supply scissors, beading mat and somewhere nice to sit and bead. Scroll down the list to find your chosen design in the right colourway.

  • Queen Squares Bracelet (Atlantic Wash) £49.50

    The Queen Squares bracelet was inspired by the city of Bath in the UK. Courtiers would come to take the waters, parade in their finery and dance at the Assembly Rooms. Additional inspiration came from the portraits of Elizabethan courtiers and their jewel encrusted garments. Filigree gold and precious stones were made into ‘Ouches’ which were stitched onto necklines, sleeves and hems.

  • Gothic Baubles Necklace (Atlantic Wash) £42.50

    The Gothic Bauble design you have chosen was inspired by an early photographic portrait of an Edwardian lady, clearly a ‘Bohemian’ and artists muse, she wears a wonderfully bead encrusted neck piece. In the background of the photographers studio was a simple gothic window arch with diamond leaded glass.
