EMBROIDERY INSPIRATION

I chose this vibrant color palette for this festive nutcracker cross-stitch design, but you can customize it for any embroidery project.

If using the same colors, remember less is more when it comes to black – it adds drama to the embroidery, so be careful not to overdo it when going for a fun, cheerful theme.
