Shine in the dark: Visibly beautiful – day and night

Some embroideries shine – others reflect. With this special thread, you not only add creative highlights to clothing, bags, or accessories, but also ensure increased visibility. Whether reflective decorative stitches, luminous embroidery motifs, or a subtle safety effect on children's jackets – you decide where it shines in the dark. Thousands of microfine glass beads turn your project into a true light catcher. It's easy to do with your usual embroidery, sewing, or overlock machine.

Product information

overview

The reflective embroidery thread consists of a robust polyamide core encased in a special polymer coating with microscopic glass beads. These provide an intense reflective effect in the dark – ideal for embroidery projects, decorative stitching, or functional appliqués that should glow in the dark. The thread has a thickness of 200 microns (approximately equivalent to size 30) and can be easily processed with standard sewing, embroidery, or overlock machines. Perfect for accents on clothing, bags, children's clothing, dog accessories, or sportswear.
