Supply List: 
Half inch wide cotton rick rack trim—I love trim by Lady Dot Creates 
Steam Iron (I have Shark Professional, which doesn’t seem to be manufactured any longer) 
Ironing board 
Size 11/0 seed beads (brand doesn’t matter—I personally prefer a finish on the bead that is metallic/pearlescent) 
Cotton sewing thread to match your rick rack trim (I like Mettler and Gutermann) 
Toothpick (optional)
