Really clever. Do you buy them through your bead shop?

No, they were included in the kit. If I want to use them, I will look up embroidery shops. It doesn't seem that goldwork supplies are that readily available in Germany, though, so I will probably have to look around some more, and if all else fails, turn to the UK.

I just wish I would have discovered it pre-Brexit ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) I may have ordered myself special goldwork scissors, more bee's wax, a velvet mat, and a mellor (a special laying tool), though. I wish I had known about the mellor before I made the kit, it looks really useful.

Brexit was so stupid.

There's a documentary on TV today about "Bregret". British friends told me about people who had expected the EU to keep the payments coming after they "broke free" from the EU and who were in shock when that wasn't how it worked. It's really rather sad which consequences it had for many people (not saying here that the EU is wonderfully perfect, mind you).

People’s thinking or lack of it often amazes me. It seems logical that if you’re not a part of the EU, you’re not going to get payments from them. But yes it is sad. But Government and economic systems are so complicated that almost no one understands them thoroughly, and usually if a change is made in one area, it affects three others that no one anticipated.
