Everything you need to build a sparkling beaded Christmas tree, in one box. A foam tree cone, pearl-headed pins, trays of beads sorted by colour, themed charms, a topper and a step-by-step picture booklet. Thread a bead onto a pin, push it into the cone, follow the pattern, and a plain white cone turns into a jewelled tabletop tree. No glue, no sewing, no wire.

9 designs to choose from

• Vintage Santa — a Santa-shaped tree with a pearl beard, red hat, holly and bells
• Snowy Wonderland — a snowman in ice-blue and white pearls with a knitted-look cap
• Poinsettia Jewel — deep red and green crystals with poinsettia blooms and gold accents
• Candy Wonderland — pastel pink, mint and white beads with lollipops, candy canes and sweets
• Cardinal Winter — white and silver pearls with red cardinals, pinecones and snowflakes
