From the blogger: "Do you want your cross stitched projects to sparkle? Try using seed beads in your projects. This easy snowflake was created using silver and turquoise seed and bugle beads from the jewelry department. Light bouncing off the beads will catch anyone’s eye. Some embroidery floss along with a jewelry needle are all you need to attach these beads to your cross stitching projects. Not only will your pieces have sparkles, but the seed beads will also add texture, making your overall projects look more alive."
