Green Thread Tassels | Pack of 12 - Saree Kuchu & Craft Latkan

A long silky thread tassel with a wrapped gold top and a hanging loop, the fuller kind that hangs well off a pallu or a pair of earrings rather than sitting flat. Twelve in the pack, all in green, so a whole border comes out matching.

Specifications

Perfect for

• Saree kuchu along the pallu and border
• Blouse, lehenga and dupatta latkan
• Tassel earrings and jhumka drops
• Keyrings, bag charms and bookmarks
• Bunting, wall hangings and festive decor

Compatibility

Works with: saree pallus and borders, blouse and lehenga hems, dupattas, earring hooks and jump rings, keyrings, bookmarks and bunting.

Pairs well with: satin ribbon, kundan and moti beads, jump rings and jewellery hooks.

Not suitable for: machine washing, and for anything that will be pressed with a hot iron directly on the thread.

How to Use

1. Lay the tassels out along the edge first and mark even spacing before you fix any of them.
2. Pass a needle through the loop at the top and stitch it to the fabric with matching thread, two or three passes per tassel.
3. For jewellery, open a jump ring, slide the loop on and close the ring flush.
4. Comb the skirt straight and trim the ends level once everything is attached.

Before You Buy

• The length is not stated on this row, so check with us before you buy if the drop has to match an existing set.
• Twelve tassels in one shade, so a long pallu run may need more than one pack.
• Thread tassels shed a few loose strands when they are new. Comb them straight with your fingers and trim the very ends level.
• Colour is dyed onto thread, so keep them away from damp and test against a pale fabric before you stitch them onto anything light.
• Stitch or knot them on rather than gluing, since glue stiffens the skirt and shows through the thread.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many tassels come in a pack?
Twelve, all in one matching shade.

How is this different from the 2 Inch moti tassels?
These have a plain wrapped top with no bead and a longer, fuller skirt. The moti range is a shorter 2 Inch tassel with a small beaded ring at the top.
