Sequin Crazy

06 July 2011 01:51
Disk shaped beads, sequins are great for all craft projects and can be used to decorate and embellish a whole host of things including clothing, jewellery, cards and scrapbooks.

Using sequins within your project couldn’t be simpler, there are loads of ways to apply them to your design such as sewing on as a trim or as singular sequins, sticking on with glue or scattering.

The size and shape of the sequins used will depend on the project; lighter weight sequins and trims are best used on clothing for successful continued washing and to reduce the pull on the fabric, in contrast heavier sequins are best used for static craft projects and jewellery creations.

Choosing the right kind of sequin is key because the weight is a huge factor that decides whether the project will hold together without falling apart but with some many different types of sequins available how do you know which to use for what project?

For costumes and fashion use an elasticated sequin trim, sparkle and movement combined without the need to sew individual sequins on – always a winner!
