If you are off to a ball and are seeking a shimmering white haute couture outfit. Then tambour beading is what you need with your glass slippers.
The History
Tambour beading is a technique developed in Europe in the late eighteenth century. A small hook (tambour hook) is used to attach the beads to the ground cloth, rather than a needle. Beading cardigans are very different to this technique. You can read about that when I teamed my beaded outfit with knee high boots.
The word tambour is French for ‘drum’ and is named after the drum-shaped tensioning frame that was originally used.
No two outfits you order will be the same. Your one-off festive garment is bespoke and created to your body shape and style.
