I've added beads to a few more areas and now I'm at the place where I need to sit on it a while to see if it's done. I'm debating over adding some sparkle to the bits of lace I added recently, but nothing feels right so far.
I added some golden bugle beads that are in a slanted pattern like this: / \ / \ / \
In this area I added some gold beads to the center of the roses, and a slanted lightly tinted transparent bugle beads at the top.
And in the rings of the tatting I added some more of the golden bugle beads to give the hint of sparkle in a flower shape.
Sometimes it is hard to decide when it is enough. My personal "rule" is: every addition must be an improvement. It it doesn't: don't add it.
