Embroidered Lace

In my last post I posted a pink n blue embroidered butee. The embroidered border or lace I am posting here was in fact chosen in combination with that butee for one my saris. I don't know how far it would look good on the sari for which I selected. Well I will be posting the pictures of the sari when completed. So you will have to tell me then.


Anyway, here it is:
This is 9 meters for sari and blouse. Below is a closer look at the design. This lace has been embroidered with silk and gold threads and mirrors. Here the mirror is not the glass type but plastic one. They are not really durable and one has to be careful while ironing as they may get burned.
Well what do you think?....


Keep a watch on my blog for some more of the beautiful laces and borders....

Hi Yashotha. Thanks for taking time to stop by my blog and leaving your comment.
I don't know where you are from. But these days many shops which sell the embroidery materials sell these laces. There are laces with kundan work, mirror work and many other varieties. The cost depends on the work and material used.
