Embroidery and Weaving Activities

Discover our weaving and embroidery activities to enjoy your holidays differently: kits to get started with cross-stitch, string art, or dreamcatcher weaving, as well as canvases and embroidery supports. Calm and rewarding, these thread activities are perfect for summer afternoons in the shade and easy to take on vacation.

Cross-stitch embroidery, a safe bet

Cross-stitch continues to charm, and for good reason: the technique can be learned in just a few minutes, the result is neat, and you progress at your own pace, stitch by stitch. Our ready-to-use kits include the fabric, threads, and the pattern to reproduce. Ideal for beginners, they are suitable for children from 8-10 years old as well as teens and adults looking for a calm and disconnected activity. To go further, the wooden hoop embroidery kit allows you to create a real picture to frame.

String art for an immediate wow effect

String Art involves stretching colored threads between nails hammered into a board to reveal a pattern. An activity as simple as it is spectacular. It is perfect for those who want an immediate result without lengthy preparation. Our kits contain the board, nails, and threads; all you need to do is create a piece that can be proudly displayed on the wall.

Weave and create with threads

Weaving opens up even more possibilities. Rainbow clouds to weave, pompom supports themed around marine animals, dreamcatchers to create with beads and pompons: all these colorful little projects keep children occupied and then decorate their rooms. And for braiding enthusiasts, scoubidou threads remain a classic holiday activity, easy to take anywhere.

Which thread activity to choose by age?

Each technique has its ideal level. Scoubidou and simple weaving are suitable from a very young age, for beginner hands. String art requires a bit more method but remains very accessible. Finally, cross-stitch and embroidery are aimed at older children, teens, and adults who appreciate calm and precision. There’s something for everyone, whether at home, in a camp, or in a leisure center.
