Tassel or beaded trim is used along the hemline of drapery panels, valances, table covers, pillows, and skirts of upholstery. It is used to embellish these treatments by adding definition and “texture” to the material it is paired with.

Beads on beaded trim vary greatly as well. Glass, metal, stone, wood, and even shells are incorporated into this trim to add an element of whimsy and bling to an otherwise plain treatment.
