Join Nichole as she builds a dimensional beaded snow globe using felt, and a gorgeous mix of shimmering beads. This gentle project blends soft felt layers with sparkling seed beads, Preciosa Crystals, and a tiny glass snowman that gives the whole scene its winter wonder.

Nichole shows how to:

• Trace and cut your felt globe shape

• Add a vellum window for that snow globe look

• Stitch bead accents, including snowflakes, crystals, and tiny details that glow

• Freehand pine trees with embroidery floss

• Secure heavier glass beads with simple stitching tricks

• Bring all the layers together into a finished snow globe, ready to display or gift

If you enjoy beadwork on felt, you will love this slow stitch adventure.
