Metallic embroidery floss set BREWIS Mulina 8 m, 8 skeins — metallic thread for hand embroidery and decorative stitching

BREWIS Mulina metallic embroidery floss set includes eight skeins of metallic thread, each 8 metres long, designed for hand embroidery and decorative stitching. The metallic fibres provide a subtle to pronounced shine depending on stitch density and lighting, adding texture and visual contrast to finished pieces. The set is suitable for use as an accent thread in cross-stitch, surface embroidery, and mixed-material craft projects where metallic highlights are desired.

Advantages

The threads are wound into manageable skeins that maintain smoothness and reduce tangling during use. Metallic composition gives consistent reflective properties across skeins, allowing for uniform accents in multi-skein projects. Each 8 m length offers enough thread for multiple small embellishments or for accenting larger motifs when combined with other threads. The neutral handling characteristics make the floss compatible with standard embroidery needles and most fabrics used for hand embroidery.

Suitable for

• Cross-stitch accents and backstitch outlining
• Surface embroidery highlights and couching techniques
• Decorative stitching on garments, accessories, and home décor
• Mixed-media crafts and embellishment of cards or scrapbooks

How to use

Separate the required length of metallic floss and gently smooth it to remove twists before threading the needle. For delicate fabrics, test a short sample to verify that the metallic fibres do not abrade the material. Use the metallic thread alone for bold highlights or combine it with standard embroidery floss for subtle shimmer. When working long stitches or couching, secure ends with small tacking stitches to prevent sliding. After completing stitching, knot or weave thread ends on the reverse side and trim excess to secure the work.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use a needle with an adequately sized eye to reduce friction on the metallic fibres, work at a moderate tension to avoid flattening the thread, and consider couching thicker sections to preserve shine. Store skeins away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain lustre.
