Christmas Ornament Bead Embroidery Kit "Christmas car"

“Christmas car” is a red car carrying a green fir tree on its roof.

What the picture shows

The car is shown from the side, with a rounded bonnet and a high roof — a retro silhouette rather than a modern one. The body is worked in red and dark red beads, the windows are pale, almost silver, and the wheels are black with bright hemispheres for hubcaps. A large clear drop marks the headlamp. A green fir tree lies on the roof, tied down with a beaded strap, and a few sequins and leaf stones on it act as baubles. Bugle beads hold the line of the bumper. The kit holds 26 bead colours. Inside the outline the printed canvas is stitched densely, then cut out.

The finished piece is 70×66 mm. The level is average: the body takes the longest, while the tree is quick to stitch. The brooch takes the clasp from the kit; the card and the twine in the photograph are styling props and are not in the kit. The stones and findings are already matched to the design, so nothing else needs to be bought.
