Wonderland Crafts Wooden Cross Stitch Kit FLW-063 – Halloween House on Plywood

Wonderland Crafts FLW-063 Halloween House ends up as a closed three-dimensional cottage roughly the size of a matchbox tower — something to set out among the pumpkins in October and pack away with the rest of the decorations. The colour scheme is deep purple and burnt orange: a black bat crossing a pale moon on one wall, a navy door with a lit yellow window on another, creeping vines up the walls and a beaded roof edged in cobalt. It is counted cross stitch and beading on laser-cut plywood, so instead of fabric you work into rigid pre-drilled panels, and instead of framing you assemble them into the finished house.

Working on Plywood

Nothing here depends on your tension or your counting: the holes are drilled at a fixed step, the panels cannot distort, and they still line up when it is time to put the house together. The grid is 14 count — standard Aida density — and it takes the beads as readily as the floss. Eleven shades build the purple and orange fields, the moon and the bat; the 683 beads run along the roof and every edge, and where clear ones catch the light they read as frost rather than colour. This is a single-sided design, so only the outer face is stitched and the reverse of each panel is hidden inside once assembled.

Unlike fabric work, the finished piece must stay dry. Do not wash, soak or steam it — plywood warps and the surface tint can stain. Dust with a soft dry brush and keep it away from damp spots such as bathrooms and window sills.

Enough beadwork to keep you busy for a few evenings, with a standing object at the end instead of an unfinished square. It suits people whose Halloween leans more folk-art than horror, and it sits well next to a bowl of sweets by the door. FLW-061 Christmas House, FLW-062 Spring House and FLW-064 Summer House are built the same way if you want the set.
