🧵 Loose sequins

LacariaRicami 5mm loose sequins are decorative elements made of high-quality PVC, designed for creative sewing, stage costumes, and DIY decorations. Each 500-gram package contains approximately 10,000-12,000 sequins, an ideal quantity for large-scale projects or for those who want to always have a complete set of round, flat, and concave sequins on hand.

The 1mm center hole makes it easy to sew the sequins with a needle and thread or glue them onto textile and non-textile surfaces. The hexagonal shape reflects light from different angles, creating a multidirectional shiny effect perfect for custom clothing, fashion accessories, and home decorations.

🧬 PVC material: why it works

PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is a durable and versatile plastic material, chosen for sequins because it guarantees long-lasting results without fading. Unlike acetate or cellulose sequins, PVC is waterproof: decorated garments can be washed without the sequins losing their shine or becoming deformed.

Furthermore, PVC is non-flammable, an essential feature for stage costumes and formal wear that must comply with safety regulations. The lightness of the material allows large quantities of sequins to be applied without weighing down the fabric, keeping the garment comfortable to wear.

📦 Package size and yield

The 500-gram package contains approximately 10,000-12,000 5mm sequins, enough to completely decorate 3-4 medium-sized formal dresses or make 8-10 children's carnival costumes. With this package, you can create decorative borders on 15-20 meters of fabric or customize accessories such as bags, belts, and hats for an entire collection.

The loose format allows you to measure out the quantity needed for each project without waste. We recommend purchasing all the sequins of the same color at once, as shades and finishes may vary slightly between different production batches.

🧶 Application techniques

5mm sequins are mainly applied using hand sewing with a fine needle and cotton or polyester thread. For optimal hold, it is recommended to sew with double thread and tie each sequin on the back of the fabric. The most common stitch is the hidden stitch: pass the needle through the center hole and secure the sequin with 2-3 passes, forming a "Y" on the right side of the fabric.

For faster projects, you can use a sewing machine with a sequin foot, which allows you to apply strips of sequins with an invisible stitch. Alternatively, sequins can be glued with fabric glue or vinyl glue onto non-textile surfaces such as frames, vases, and greeting cards. For an even more decorative effect, they can be combined with central beads or other decorative elements.

✨ Why choose these sequins

Compared to sequins sold in small 10-20 gram packages, the 500g format offers an unbeatable value for money for those who work continuously or on large-scale projects. You will no longer have to interrupt your work to buy more sequins, and you can be sure that all the sequins come from the same production batch, ensuring uniformity of color and finish.

The durability of PVC means that your work will retain its shine even after repeated washings, unlike inexpensive acetate sequins that tend to become dull or detach. The three available shapes (flat, round, concave) allow you to create different visual effects on the same project, adding depth and movement to decorations.

🎨 What you can make

5mm sequins are perfect for decorating custom clothing, stage costumes, fashion accessories, and home decorative objects. Thanks to their versatility, they adapt to projects of varying complexity, from simple decorative embroidery on t-shirts to the creation of formal dresses completely covered in sequins.

👩‍🎨 Who it is suitable for

These sequins are suitable for both beginners who want to experiment with simple decorations and professionals in creative sewing and theatrical tailoring. The 1mm hole is large enough to allow easy application even for those with no experience, but small enough to ensure a neat and professional result.

The 500g format is particularly appreciated by hobbyists who work continuously, craftswomen who sell personalized creations, theatrical costume designers, and creative workshop teachers. Those who buy this package are looking for a reliable, affordable, and ready-to-use product for medium-to-large-scale projects.
