September has now arrived… 🍂🐿️

I’m not quite ready for pumpkins and full-on autumn just yet (Christmas always, Autumn no lol), but I think these little squirrels are allowed out of the ThreadABead archives.

With the weather turning a little more changeable and that first hint of autumn starting to creep in, they feel rather perfect for this week — a tiny woodland project to bead while September decides what sort of weather it wants to give us. 😂

Are you starting to feel a little bit autumnal yet, or are you hanging onto summer for as long as possible?

Meet Arctic the Penguin, our newest little pocket of Christmas cuteness! 🐧

Wrapped up in a wonderfully bright hat and scarf, this cheerful chap is created with pe**te stitch and is beginner friendly too. He’ll make a lovely handmade decoration, a thoughtful little gift, or simply a very sweet addition to your festive beading.

Choose the pattern to bead him in your own colours, or pick up the component pack for everything you need to bring Arctic to life.

A little Christmas magic has arrived ✨

Our new Nutcracker Mini Stocking Collection includes three charming designs inspired by the much-loved Christmas classic: the Nutcracker, the Rat King and the Sugar Plum.

Each miniature stocking is created with pe**te stitch and finished with beautiful beaded details and a hanging loop, ready to become a special tree decoration or handmade festive gift.

We have two new patterns hidden. Any guesses what might be joining the ThreadABead collection very soon?

Take a close look, trust your beading instincts and pop your guesses in the comments. No peeking at anyone else’s answers!

A little trip into the ThreadABead archives today… 💧🌸

We think this little watering can has had rather a lot of work to do this summer! 💧☀️

After all the hot weather from the very hot summer this year, our gardens may be looking a little more brown than green by now — but at least this design will stay looking cheerful whatever the weather.

As summer begins to draw to a close, our Elf Workshop is already waiting to be enjoyed.

With busy little elves, colourful presents, hanging decorations, a rocking horse and even a tiny teddy, there are so many lovely details to bring to life, one bead at a time.

Have you started yours yet?

There’s still plenty of summer left… ⛵️☀️

And if you can’t quite manage an afternoon out on the water, there’s always the beady version!

Our little 3D Sail Boat is one of those designs that makes us want to dig out the blues, whites and reds and disappear into a good bit of beadwork for a while.

Who fancies setting sail? ⚓

We honestly didn’t think it would be possible to make a teddy bear quite this tiny… but just look at him! 🧸

Here he is sitting proudly beside our much-loved 3D Beaded Teddy Bear (https://threadabead.com/5571/1/The-3D-Beaded-Teddy-Bear-Bead-Pattern), giving you a proper idea of just how teeny he really is. We can’t help smiling whenever we see the two of them together.

Our little brown teddy is one of the tiny finishing touches found inside Elf Workshop Chapter Three – The Final Preparations (https://threadabead.com/Search_Results.aspx?shop=1&item=3&topic=671).

He may be small enough for an elf’s workshop, but he’s certainly not short on character!

🎄 At last, the Elf Workshop is complete… 🎄

Today we’re releasing the final two chapters of our Elf Workshop, and we couldn’t be more excited to open the doors and show you the finished scene.

Every tiny toy, present and decoration has been carefully designed to bring the workshop to life — from the little rocking horse and teddy bear to the train, dolls’ house, Christmas tree and perfectly wrapped parcels. We’ve spent countless hours shaping every piece, choosing every colour, and adjusting and refining every little detail until the whole workshop felt just right.

This project has always been about capturing that wonderful feeling of Christmas morning: the excitement, the magic, and the sense that somewhere, the elves have been working away to make everything perfect. ❤️

You can create the complete workshop one chapter at a time, with the patterns, component packs and wooden workshop kit all available separately.
