I would customize the christmas party dress I am making at the moment. I have ombred the purple the fabric around the hemline and don't want the stitching to show so I would use black beads to cover the stitches and creative a sparkly party look.
I would bead an evening bag I am planning to make.
I made a frock ( blue demon with red topstitching and zip ). It would live a Brady thing on a sholder.

I would use beading on the 4 bridesmaids dresses I am making for my daughter's wedding!
I have a very plain purple dress, which is a beautiful fit, so I would love to add little strings of tube beads and silver round beads to add movement and sparkles to the skirt of the dress when I move. Perfect for Christmas!
