After many years of travel I’ve come to the conclusion that aside from my passport my silk scarf is the one staple I need with me everywhere. Why? Because you never know when your going to need it.
There’s always one in my carry on, and generally a mix in my checked luggage.
After trips with lost luggage, weather changes & surprise outings I’ve come to find that a scarf offers the ultimate in versatility, it takes up little space yet transforms your basic travel wardrobe. Scarves can go a long way in livening up a neutral wardrobe by providing a pop of colour, pattern, or texture.
The go to for my adventures is always our finest Ahimsa Silk Wrap, lovingly dubbed Alex. As light as air & as soft as clouds, this is sensationally luxurious silk, an incredible luster, buttery soft yet just a slightly textured hand feel. Its elegant & dramatic aesthetics make it especially versatile, a style that can be worn for any occasion, dressing up a plain t-shirt, enriching casual attire, adding a beautiful extra layer of warmth & many times perfectly complementing a formal dress.
Our Ahimsa or Peace Silk Handwoven Silk wrap uses an enlightened, cruelty-free process to gather up silk fibres after newborn moths emerge, ensuring a better quality of life - as well as longevity - for these wondrous winged workers. The result is an indulgent, lightweight fabric with an amazing hand-feel, finished with a line of delicate hand rolled & knotted tassels.

We’re a hive of activity here at Beautiful Silks, lovingly & speedly packing all your incredible orders, cutting, sticking & collating new catalogues, and on top of it all we’re getting ready to carefully sew a magnificent wedding dress for the upcoming nuptials of one of our Beautiful staff members.
Its at this point that we reach for our most important tool, (aside from a sharp pair of scissors) a wide range of needles & pins.
Having good quality, sharp needles makes all the difference to my stitching pleasure. They are sharp, honed well, with no burrs, and tend to bend rather than break.
Choosing a needle for needlework is like choosing a brush for a painting. The shape of the hand needles, the diameter of the shaft, the length of the needles, and the size of their eye depend on the type of hand sewing. Using a needle that’s too short or too blunt is a lesson in frustration and will make your experience more of an aggravation than a fun project.
As an experienced seamstress & embroiderer I have so many needles in use at any one time– of different lengths and thicknesses, with different tips and eyes. The needles can slide through the fabric with varying ease, and be more firm or flexible. Using hand needles that are too large can leave unsightly holes in your fabric when they break the finely woven threads, to small & you’ll & up with broken needles & poor stitch quality.
There will always be projects that require the personal touch of a sewist & her needle, which is why we stock so many different hand sewing needles, head to our “Needles And Pins” range at our website for details.

For many beginners, felting is a completely new adventure, a truly unique & personal way to express your artistic flavours. For us felting is an escape, a healing process, & once upon a time a profession.
Half the fun of felting, whether you’re nuno, wet, or needle felting, is incorporating all those luxurious, beautiful, textural fibres. Fortunately Beautiful Silks has a mixture of delicious delicacies to aid you on your felting adventures, leading the way is our Tissue Silk Georgette, available in both a luminous ethereal white & a shadowy midnight black.
Almost weightless, a seductively smooth fabric, with a soft drape & light airy feel, its ideal for embellishments, & a true delight to felt with. So very soft on the skin this fabric has a delicately sheer handle with a light bounce & drapes beautifully with a matt finish.
Not only for felters, our Tissue Silk Georgette is the perfect material for dressmaking, blouses, lingerie, scarves, skirts, evening & special occasion wear.
Our range is available in varying widths, there’s also a handful of Black Silk Tissue lengths available in our remnants range

We’ve had a blast these school holidays, enjoying quality time with our little ones, they love being in the Beautiful Silks warehouse & they’re incredibly helpful.
Cutting & sorting hundreds of different fabrics for our catalogues, helping us fold & neatly put away all our new stock, & their absolute favourite, helping us test out a fabulous new batch of Silk Paper making Kits.
We’ve received glorious feed back about our Kits, creating luxurious, soft textured & unique cards, invitations, collages & letters to loved ones & friends.
We’ve found these crafting activities give kids a real sense of achievement, allowing them to take great pride in their work & building confidence in their abilities.
Making Silk paper is an exciting & safe way to discover so many artistic & scientific possibilities, whilst spending quality time with parents, grandparents & friends.
After selling out at the end of last year we are well & truly stocked up for the year ahead.

Wedding bells are in the air at Beautiful Silks, we’re rolling up our selves to create one of the most gorgeous dresses imaginable.
After long discussions, many ideas & countless sketches we reached for the incredibly elegant Silk Satin Charmeuse. Named after the French word for a female charmer, charmeuse’s elegance makes this fabric ideal for an alluring, delicate & sophisticated dress. Most importantly Silk Satin Charmeuse is incredibly comfortable, & provides the most skin loving ally on a day filled with emotion.
Its flow is eloquent; it hugs your body beautifully, skimming over your curves in all the right ways, looks effortlessly luxurious & graceful as it moves naturally with you as you walk down the aisle.
Being a lightweight fabric, you can add multiple layers to your dress without making it too heavy to carry, its unique weave produces a highly versatile fabric, shiny & lustrous on one side with a matte finish on the reverse.
Its Satins weave combined with a perfectly smooth silk thread that produces a finish which mesmerisingly captures light, its naturally fluid & floating drape means your dress on the special day will be everything you ever imagined.
Charmeuse is also the ideal choice for women’s slips, negligees, & lingerie of all types, coat linings, shirts, handkerchiefs, evening gowns & bedding.
And when your big day is over, your magical gown can be dyed & transformed into a show stopping dress for all life’s other special occasions.
