Shisha Embroidery Sparkles

Shisha Embroidery Sparkles

Put some Shisha Mirrors on your next project


Shisha Embroidery


Shisha Mirrors are tiny pieces of mirror used to adorn and embellishment your embroidery projects. You often see them on Indian and Asian products as the word Shisha comes from the Persian word Shisheh which means mirror work. The mirrors reflect the light and give your craft project an extra dimension and really makes them stand out.


We have a excellent video on how to incorporate Shisha mirrors into your next embroidiery project, so click on the video below to watch it.

You will see a spontaneous video we made of an 8 year old girl called Erica. She was adorable and so confident, open hearted and creative. You will see how easily children can learn to create their own papers for card making, wrapping paper and even book making. You will have hours of creative fun together!
