That's not what I wanted to be! I never wanna give up to keep my room stylish even I become a mom!!" That's how I decided to started my shop. The working moms like me barely has the time to spend with family in a day. But I should have a time to spend with my family. I have to have it.

Then I found that the place to share our time is our living room. Why don't we use the living room as family's space at least until kids grow up. Also, the choice of furniture tend to change after being mom, but we don't have to give up to choose what we want to choose."

Spend Your Best Moment with A Special Gateau

 Now, the month of June bridal had just past, I have found a interesting item for all those who preparing for the marriage or those who just married, and beading fans;
"A Beads Wedding Gateau (Cake)."

Beads Mania, a Japanese brand that produces beading kits and beading goods, has just released a HUGE wedding cake made of beads. In fact, It is incredibly well done in quality.

===========================

        about 21.0 cm height
Difficulty: ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆
Tools used: Round tongs, flat tongs,
                 nipper (awl if needed)
===========================
[Description]
A wedding is the best moment in one's 
long life. Why don't you keep the memory of the best moment in a beads wedding cake that glitters forever? A two-tiered wedding cake with snow white cream all 
over. Its size is like an actual whole cake, and you can feel the strong presence of its weight. You can even use it as a "welcome cake" at an actual wedding. 



☆Special Parts For A Special Cake☆ 
The size of the biggest pearl beads used in this kit is 24mm. 
The cooperated pearl beads maker told us that it's the first 
time for them to make this big pearl beads. It is custom-made pearl beads that is not produced in general market.  Other 
parts used in this gateau, such as Swarovski Crystal Pearl of powder rose in diameter of 10mm, and copper ball designed under the image of argent, are all non-standard size. To make this big beads gateau, we prepared three different thicknesses of gut; the size of No. 6, No. 4, and No. 2.  In order to keep 
the cake shaped beautiful for long, we chose the gut carefully in strength. 



☆ Perfect Gift For Pure & 
Innocent Bride; the Elegant Topping ☆ 
As the topping of the gateau,  we 
selected the elegant and gorgeous fake flowers, such as velvet-processed rose, white hydrangea, and daisy. The ribbon that connecting the happiness on the top of the special gateau, has wire 
inside to keep the beautiful shape of 
the ribbon. 



☆Only For Now; Delivered with Beads Mania's Original Toto Bag☆
Since this gateau uses 60mm size of Styrofoam ball in order to fill the gap inside of the gateau, you may be surprised of its amount. So, we send it all in one putting in a tote bag of our original. It's a small present from Beads Mania. 


☆The masterpiece of the gateau kit; "Bonne Qualite -Gateau de Mariage- "☆ 
We hope it will be a lifetime treasure of your life. 

★ Discerning Point of The Designer Ms. K ★ 
- Because this gateau use big parts, the thickness of the gut was pretty important to keep the 
completed kit in good shape. So, I chose the gut properly depending on the sections. 
- The big ribbon that adorned the top is the conspicuous part, I selected the one wire inside to 
keep it remain in the form of a beautiful ribbon.
