The fancy color of beads, embroided onto cloth material following patterns, look so attractive. They are in the form of cartoons & flowers which are created and paint added on. These creative pieces of work are worth giving out as gifts or presents on various special occasions.
Natnicha Boonyanit, the artist trainer, told us: The color paint integrates well with colorful beads. This piece of art is different and outstanding, adding value to the material.
The cloth paint art is famous now. Natnicha teaches her trainees by combining cloth painting with bead embroidery hand made pieces of art unique fashion design which has proved to add value to an ordinary material. For some of these trainees they can make a living out of it, if they are good.
Natnicha continued: The art paint work is popular and now we combine painting with embroidery and they are well accepted. Many get the idea and make money out of it. I think it works well.
Titima Jampada a trainee participant, said: Its not too difficult if we are determined. Its practical. You will see these type of handmade products made available at Surin beach.
