It is necessary

  • - blue beads;
  • - green beads;
  • - yellow beads;
  • - 3 larger beads for stamens;
  • - wire for beading;
  • - green floss.

Instructions

Step 1

To weave a flower cup, you will need blue beads of different shades, you can make several different flowers or use beads of several shades - from light to dark - in one work. In this case, weave the middle of the flower from beads of a darker shade, and make the edges of the petals light blue.

Step 2

Cut 2 pieces of wire, 40 cm each. To make the petals voluminous, weave each in parallel weaving in 2 stages. Start on the left side of the petal. String 1 bead, in the second row 2 beads, then make 4 more parallel rows of 2 beads each. Next, string 8 rows of 3 beads each, then again 5 times 2 pieces each and finish weaving with 1 bead.

Step 3

Then move on to weaving the right side of the bell. Pull the second wire through the loop between rows 1 and 2. String 1 bead on one end, and pull the other end through the bead on the other side. Pull the wire and pull it through the loop between rows 2 and 3 on the left side of the petal. Next, weave in the same way on the left side.

Step 4

Pull the wire and twist it under the last bead. In the middle of the petal, loops should be obtained, thanks to which the part can be bent, giving the petal the desired shape. In the same way, weave a few more petals, depending on the desired size of the future bell, while interlocking all subsequent petals together up to 10 rows, as described above.

Step 5

Weave the sepals together. Cut a wire 30 cm long. String 14 green beads on it, pass the wire through the first bead and tighten. Make 5 sepal leaves in the same way. Twist the wire under all the leaves.

Step 6

For bell leaves, use green beads. Cut a wire 30 cm long and braid in a parallel weave. String 1 bead, then 2 times with 2 beads, 10 times with 4 beads in a row, then again 2 times with 3 beads, 2 times with 2 and 1 times with 1 bead. Make a few pieces of paper like this.

Step 7

A flower with yellow stamens looks very beautiful. String 1 larger yellow bead on the wire, twist the wire under it and string 15-20 light yellow beads. Make 3 stamens.

Step 8

Insert the stamens into the flower, and then insert everything together into the sepal. Twist the wire on both sides of the flower. Attach the leaves and twist the wire again. Wrap the stem with green floss to match the leaves.
