Doctors and psychologists say that until the age of five, "the brain of the" little man "is at his fingertips." That is, the more a child at this age does something with his hands, the more his brain develops (connections between his cells).
Handicraft is useful not only for children, but also for adults: this activity calms the nervous system.
Now many shops selling fabrics consider it their duty to sell a large embroidery kit, which consists of many elements necessary for a complete picture.
The embroidery kit includes:
- schemes / pictures for embroidery;
- beads of different shapes, sizes. The number of beads depends on the cost of the set;
- multi-colored threads of different thicknesses;
- canvas (fabric);
- set of needles;
- embroidery hoop.
The cost of the kit ranges from 60 rubles to infinity and depends on the quantity and quality of materials in the kit.
Producers put in the set both simple pictures "for beginners" and reproductions of famous paintings by great artists. Such work can be a worthy gift for any celebration, and if it is still done by the hands of a loved one, then the beauty and visual perfection is enhanced by the energy of a loved one.
The size of the canvases can also be the widest: from small "pieces of fabric" to "large-scale canvases". It follows from this that one work can be completed in a few hours, while another person will have to “beat” it for several days / weeks / months.
The choice of the size and complexity of the job depends on the person. All kits for embroidery contain pictures that will need to be transformed on fabric.
The variety of items, their quality and quantity in the embroidery kits is amazing. Elderly people, who have not lost the Soviet habit of embroidering, cannot get enough of the “colorfulness” that they put in the embroidery kits that you can buy now. In Soviet times, the female sex had to draw a picture on the fabric themselves, and those who did not know how, had to ask someone to draw or translate. Now I chose a drawing that I love and work "for health."
And the size of the "ears" of the needles began to be made more suitable for threading than before. Now an elderly person can easily thread a needle even without the help of glasses.
The size of the hoop is varied, you can, if you wish, without finishing one picture, which is tired for some reason, start another.
Buy large embroidery kits and hang / donate your artwork.
