Gold is malleable and can be stretched into fine golden threads to be woven into garments. They are commonly seen in embroidery in many forms. So, this is your chance to work in your love for gold through embroideries, motifs and appliques. Play it regal in gold by matching the beautiful embroidery with ornate accessories, like a pair of earrings or a chic bracelet.
