My little Song Brocade decor piece is finally done!

I’ve had this Song Brocade fabric sitting in my stash forever, and finally got around to making something with it. I added pearls along the shell pattern, plus a few extra on the matting. Placing every single pearl one by one took way longer than I thought, but I’m obsessed with how soft and dreamy the final look is!
