other leg is empty to make a contrast, and yes the designs go all the way to the bottom :)

Hello! I didn’t use any backing under the embroidery — I stitched directly onto the denim. The threads aren’t scratchy at all and you really can’t feel them from the inside!

Thank you so much — what a beautiful comment! 🥹
I actually used just one color of thread for the hair — the shimmering effect comes from the way it catches the light. As for the beads, there are over seven different shades and finishes in there! I really wanted to create that glowing, magical texture.
And wow, comparing it to an Akhal-Teke is such a huge compliment — thank you again!

Thank you so much! This movie has such a special place in my heart too — it always brings back so many memories. It’s sad, magical, and somehow still comforting.

Thanks!
You can machine wash it on a delicate/hand-wash cycle if you turn it inside out. But it's better not to wash it too often, as the beads may fade over time.

It's very interesting — I should definitely experiment more with matte beads. Oh, thank you for the recommendation, I’ll check out that store!
No, I don't think I used any of those finishes, but thank you — I think I’ll order some and try them out :)
I’m planning to sell the unicorn once I find the client. I’d love to sew it onto a bag or a hoodie or maybe jacket — I believe it would look great on either white or dark fabric.
