- Back today with a new beaded moth brooch, this time with it's wings closed for a rest on a shoulder perhaps. Great for pairing with a suit or dress, or on a crimson peak inspired art nouveau costume perhaps? ✨

Thank you for watching!
Since folks seemed to enjoy this moth buddy, I recently made a cicada friend using a similar color palette you can see here ruclips.net/video/4lGshWYwdaM/видео.html 💚🧵
Amazing ❤ I love it
Watching this makes me realize that I absolutely do not have the patience for beading. I barely have the patience for embroidery. But your INTRO LOOK. The hair, the wrap, the makeup, the shirt... It is *exquisite*.
Thank you!!
Right?! I had to sternly tell myself NOT to cut side swept bangs because I will not magically look this elegant LOL
You inspired me to make a bat brooch with outstretched wings. I used black sequins & matte seed beads. Thanks for sharing your lovely work with us!
Most excellent! 🦇 I need to make a bat sonetine!
So adorable! Would love to see your entire collection of "beadles," moths, and spiders 😊
I hope you're having an amazing time in London! Can't wait to hear how it went and possibly see a show and tell😂
Yes, to see the entire collection 🌝
Thank you!! I can certainly do a tour of my beetles and friends sometime 😅🦋
Every time is see you do beading I have to convince myself that I don’t need another craft. But they are so gorgeous.
Thank you! ❤️ (are you sure you don't need yet another craft?....✨)
@@TheClosetHistorian I’m not sure but husband is! Hehehehehe. Maybe if I get a bigger house I can add another craft 😆 we’ll see.
This is so beautiful, it's been a couple decades since ive tried embroidery, but when my nana was teaching me she would always say that the back MUST look as neat and tidy as the front. She would be very impressed by your stunning talent, care and attention to detail.
Thank you!! As long as I can cover any sins of the back in the end with a clean backing I’m good 😂
Your outfit is ON POINT! those colors look really lovely on you!
Thank you!
This moth is enchantingly beautiful. the color arrangement WOW. I really love your channel Bianca. It is so inspiring that I already made my first spider.
Thank you so much! I haven’t made a spider in a while, time for some new ones 🕷️
The opening look in this video was ✨✨ i also seem to have a growing appreciation for how pretty bugs can be haha
Thank you Crystal!
Just wanted to saythat your look/styling is absolutely gorgeous in this video. That head wrap and eye look are perfection! That is all. :)
I agree 100%!
Thank you Linda!
Yes, I agree too! Perfection 💚
LOVE their little antennae and their fluffy little heads.
Have you ever watched someone make ronghua? They're Chinese 'velvet' flowers made by twisting silk and wire to make your own very very fancy pipe cleaners.
Thank you! I have not but I'll have to check it out!
Here to tell you how much I adore your look in this vid. 😍 I also love the moth brooch.
Thank you Marie!
Watching you make a moth brooch was just the level of chill I needed.. much needed decompression.
Thank you Michelle ❤️
The moth looks so beautiful and fluffy😍 and your look is absolutely stunning🤩
Thank you Ruth!
You are such a talented person! I love your beaded Brooches, they are so creative and very beautiful!
Thank you Isabella!
just wanted to say I love your look with the hair swept up to a turban. Really suits you. I'm looking forward to seeing your process of making this lovely brooch :)
Thank you Kaz! Silk scarves become hats easily ✨😂
there a few really cool looking moths out there. Luna moth might be my favorite looking wise. They don´t live in sweden as far as I know but their looks are just so amazing with the color and tail things they have
Spanish Luna Moths are also extra pretty too!
What a gorgeous little friend!
Thank you!
I think this little guy is my favorite so far. ❤️
Thank you Vikki!
Another absolutely beautiful creation! It's been only few years since I started liking bugs and moths after years of unneeded hate. I hope these glittery ones help someone else see the beauty in little creepers
Thank you Jenni! I’m evolving from fear to appreciation, but the funkier beetles and stick bugs I still find absolutely terrifying 😅
Loved the idea of 'painting' with beads and sequins. I do love a crafting video. Lovely result-wear your brooch in good health!
Thank you Beth!
I love your hair in this video. Loving your brooches.
Thank you Rhonda!
Yay! So happy to see another one of these. I'm currently making a green fly brooch. I plan on wearing it with a jacket which I'm embroidering with Venus Fly traps. I have until November, so I am starting early to make sure it's all stunning.
Nice!! I need to learn to give myself more time like that 😂
Love the hairstyle, turban or head wrap, and wow, that eye shadow! Love the colors. I feel I must make an insect brooch. Maybe a fuzzy and sparkly bee. I can’t recall if you’ve done anything with iridescent or see through wings. That would be amazing.
Thank you! I need to make a big blue carpenter bee sometime 🐝
So relaxing watching you put the moth together. Love the look to your hair. x
Thank you Christine!
I lovvvvve intricate hand beading and sequins like this!! My dream project is a moth-inspired gown, and I think it would be a lovely touch to include one of these brooches of the moth that inspired the dress design. I'll be coming back to this!
You've inspired me to make poinsettia appliqué . It's so relaxing to sit and do
So so lovely. Thank you for sharing and also for sharing your resources.
Thank you! 🦋
Adorable moth buddy, tell him I love him.
Thanks Sam!
I absolutely love watching you create these beauties. I collect insect pins myself, and now I have been inspired to make my own. Thank you..
Thank you Lynda! I have a whole entomological museum of these going now 😂
I like how your style matches the moths colours!
I am so happy to find your channel! I do a lot of bead and thread crafts, sewing by hand & machine, just started dabbling with paints and this is perfect for throwing that all together!! I can’t wait to get started on a new project!
Thank you Andrea!
I know boo about costuming, but this has been a real treat for me. You've shown me a marvel of a kind I've never seen before, so thank you for that. That brooch is just a lovely thing.
Thank you!
OMG I love hearing about structural colour in the wild! Iridescent scales and feathers are so cool
I’m feeling so absolutely inspired to make my own bugs. I think this would look great as a detail on one of my hat bands.
I like seeing all your different creative projects!
What an incredible and talented lady! Love your ideas! I have a room full of beads, sequins, and can’t wait to try this out!! Blessings to you!❤️😊
Thank you! Nothing better than organizing new sequin acquisitions!
Now I need one of those pink and yellow maple moths as a brooch!
They look like candy those ones! ✨
Thank you so much for making this for us. I love all of your videos, but the beaded bugs have a special place in my heart
Thank you! ❤️
I so much want to create one for myself and my granddaughter! She loves moths and so do I!
You look so beautiful in this clip. Very good styling
Thank you Andreea!
Love the moth, but I love the head piece you are wearing, beautiful
Thank you Jill! It is an ice dyed silk scarf ✨
Beautiful, nice job Lady 👍💕
Thank you Sylvie!
You did an amazing job on your broach. 😊
You look adorable! I love the head scarf!
Thank you!
May l compliment you on a lovely soothing commentary, with acknowledgement to any peculiarities in the method. It was lovely to listen to.
Thank you!
You look stunning in intro! Hair, make-up, blouse- everything is in ideal colour scheme that fits you so well !
Thank you Daria!
Wow. The hair and scarf combo and color is beautiful.
Thank you!
Beautiful and elegant. Thankyou, very well explained. Will make a special gift. Something different.
Thank you Penelope!
I have vintage sequins from my grandma, and I like your moth so much🥰
I'll try to do my best
Btw, your turban is stunning😍
Thank you Inna! Vintage sequins is even more fun!
You’re looking especially classy today. Thanks for the tutorial!
Thank you!
Love your 😊hair styling today!❤
Thank you!
yet again a great project, I love the colours. Can I just add how lovely the "short" hair look is on you.
Thank you! The secret is…my hair is now short!
I love it, thanks for share your amazing creativity
🙏❤️
Thank you!
Absolutely gorgeous. I’ve been wanting to know how to create the fluffy body so thanks very much for sharing. I usually create small insects, frogs and animals using glass beads and wire.
Pretty colours and really interesting sequins. I love the furry 80's mullet on your buddy.
Thank you!
Beautiful, I’m very tempted to give this a go.💛
Wow that is fabulous!!! I do not think I would have the patience. Amazing how these tiny objects come together to create an awesome piece of jewelry art You definitely have a creative gift Enjoyed watching this 😊
Thank you Annie! ❤️
I'm an artist, jewelry and bead lover of all kinds. I've searched and collecting the supplies for making a beaded purse w/kiss closure. I've always loved the look and technique in bead art, the long sparkly flowing dresses. I might give this a try at first. You make it look so easy and doable and seems very therapeutic and with flow of creativity! ❤ Etsy, while I've found some suppliers with vintage sequins and beads most all are from another country and beautiful indeed. Well worth the wait. Thanks for the share and inspiration. Your creations are stunning
Thank you! I do find making these quite relaxing when I'm in the middle of them ✨
I absolutely love the Brooch!
(However, "Silence of the Lambs"popped into my head)
It makes my day to watch your marvelous delightful creations 😊
Thank you!
Magnificent !!! 💖💖💖 Love the stitches, colors, textures, and arrangements on this particular little buddy. 💖💖💖 Your tastes are elegant. 💖💖💖 Safe Travels with Many Blessings. 💖💖💖
Thank you Dolores!
So spot on with the Klimt-esque description! It came out beautifully.
Thanks for sharing your process; it was fascinating and very informative! Gotta give this a shot.
Thank you!!
You are very clever crafter, the creatures look alive😊
Thank you!
So beautiful Bianca, as always! You always inspire me to take my creative projects to a much higher level. You have a knack of breaking the whole complicated process down into more manageable parts whether it be sewing, pattern drafting or moth making.
Thank you! 🧵 I truly hope more and more folks give making things a go is all ❤️
I’m obsessed with these videos! This is how I found your channel today and I’ve already watched four. I truly thought you would have done a Luna moth considered you mentioned you wanted to do on that is Chartreuse!
I hope if you do a Luna moth it is the most spectacular one you’ve ever done! Beautiful work as always.
How lovely, my favourite too. In our local woods, behind my house, we have a moth specialist who comes and sets up a couple of times a year. We usually catch between 60 and 80 different species each time.. They are amazing. Each one goes in a clear plastic container, is examined, documented, then released. Great fun x
That’s amazing!
That is so cool! The natural history museum comes to you in a way 🦋
Another stunning creation!❤ I remember when you started making the beetles a while back! I have been following you and enjoying all your amazing work since you inspired me in 2020!
Thank you K! I miss making the brooches when I’ve been away from my beads too long 🦋
You make it seem soooo easy! Stunning moth.
Thank you!
Very fun and chic. Indian & Pakistan have the most amazing trimmings. My hubs is from Pakistan and I love the work on the clothes from there. You can find amazing fabrics, embroidered trims, & beads.
Thank you Wendy! I can't even imagine how good the supplies are 🤩
Wow, gorgeous moth 🦋
Thank you!
Utterly amazing again!!!!!!! Your creativity is inspiring and mesmerising xxx
Thank you Alexandra!
Beautiful 🤩 I Love It 😍 Creativity is not about patience it’s about passion and love 😉. It take times yes but it’s a nice nice journey to the final gift for our eyes. Thank you to share with us 💙✨💕😊
Thank you!
Loving the head wrap! It loooks gorgeous on you
Thank you!
He’s beautifil 😍😍😍 I love those colors and the filigree sequins are a sweet touch 👌
Thank you Tena!
Ooh that's a lovely moth! I'm really inspired to make my own now. But but.. I have a bunch of projects waiting for me, lol.
Also, you're looking gorgeous as usual! I love the hair with the wrap, so cute!
Thank you Joelle!
That is just lovely, rich, sparkly and so so clever. Thank you……you have got another follower.
Thank you Rikki!
love all the bugs you make!, stunning!
Thank you! 🪲
How have I not come across your channel before? How? I think your sense of style is fabulous and I have loved every single one of your videos I have so far sampled and will watch fully at a later date. Keep up the spectacular work, the links you provide for things you've used and the projects you have made tutorials for. Thanks!
Thank you Anna! ❤
As always fabulous
Thank you Kellie!
Oh my goodness, he is gorgeous. I desperately want to make one. Thank you for sharing your technique.
Thank you Vicki!
I agree. This brooch on something crimson. It's beautiful!!
Thank you Dannie!
Such a gorgeous design. I love the gradient of colours achieved.
I'm gonna have to try these techniques out!❤
Thank you!
You have the most beautiful eyes. Your make up and ensemble is lovely. The moths are amazing.
Thank you Denise!
First time watching and definitely subscribing I am in love with this! Thank you for the inspiration! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you so much! These are exquisite!
Thank you Mary!
Awesomeness, great tutorial on how to make a beautiful moth. Thanks for sharing 👍😍👏
Thank you Chris!
I enjoyed watching you craft, and you look beautiful with the turpin.
Thank you Gloria!
The hair! The color! ❤
This is stunning! It's so very tempting to throw away the list of things that need to get done and pull out all my beads! Adulting sucks!
Thank you Robin! I have the best job in the world becuase my to-do list for tomorrow literally is "bead two beetles" so 😂❤
GIRL You`re an artist!
Thank you!
thank you so much for this tutorial!! I was kinda stuck with an embroidery applique thingy I was making and the cutting the surrounding fabric into tabs tip was a mindblowing moment for me! I could've never thought on doing that. It's exactly what I needed for my project!
Another superlative project, beautifully documented. (And wow, do I love Cartwright Sequins!)
Thank you Lisa! I just placed another order after I realized I don't have any orange sequins! Must fix that situation pronto...
@@TheClosetHistorian 🔸🧡🍊🧡🔸

Thank you! Silk scarves as hats are super useful 😂❤️
Absolutely stunning! I love moths 😍
Thank you! They’re such cuties ☺️🦋
This is so very beautiful Bianca, wow. Love the Klimt comment you made.
Thank you Katrina!
Kinda off topic,but I’d love to see a makeup tutorial of the makeup you’re wearing in this video-gorgeous! And I did love the video as well 😊
Thank you Tiffany!
Beautiful! I've come back twice now to rewatchand build up my courage to try this, maybe this summer when it gets too hot to be outside and garden :)
Thank you Michele! You can do it!!
