Ever Wanted to Create Something Like This?
Imagine sending a piece of your heart through the mail—a delicate, vintage-inspired postcard crafted bead by bead. You’ve seen mass-produced cards in stores, but what if you could slow down, savor each stitch, and offer something truly one-of-a-kind? The Beaded Postcard Flowers #4 pattern invites you on a journey of mindful making: a small, radiant tapestry that doubles as mail art, wall décor, or a framed keepsake. If you’re longing to turn simple supplies into a lasting treasure, keep reading.
What You’ll Create
With this pattern, you’ll craft a 4.14 in × 5.82 in (10.5 cm × 14.8 cm) floral postcard, covered in tiny Miyuki Delica beads. Each column and row of the 78×84-grid peyote design builds a lush bouquet in soft vintage shades—pinks, creams, and leafy greens. When you finish, you’ll hold a miniature tapestry that catches the light and invites you to pause and admire every bead. Hang it as wall art, frame it on a shelf, or mail it as a treasured greeting that survives beyond the mailbox.
