  • Beadwork / Bead Work (in Embroidery and Needlework - Beadwork in embroidery is a type of embroidery that involves adding beads to fabric to create decorative designs. The beads can be sewn onto the fabric using a needle and thread, or they can be attached using a variety of other techniques, such as beading wire or bead crochet. Beadwork is often used in conjunction with other embroidery techniques, such as cross-stitch and appliqué.

    Beadwork has been used for decorative purposes for thousands of years, and it has been fashionable in many different cultures and time periods. In Western fashion, beadwork was popular in the 19th century, during the Art Nouveau movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and continued to be fashionable through the 1920s and 1930s. In the 1960s and 1970s, beadwork experienced a resurgence in popularity.
