You can make a heart from beads using the most common technique for making beads using wire - parallel stringing. This method is quite simple, but it allows you to create decorations and figurines of any complexity.
It is necessary
Red beads, brass wire
Instructions
Step 1
Parallel threading is performed with two ends of one wire. You can also use nylon thread, but it is still better if it is brass wire.
Step 2
Place nine red beads on a piece of wire and place them in the middle of the wire. Pass one end of the wire through the five beads farthest from it towards the other end. Then tighten the ends of the wire so that they are the same length. The first two rows are woven. In the first - 4 beads, in the second - 5. The pattern can be designated as 4-5.
Step 3
Now you need to dial six beads on one end of the wire. The other end of the wire must be passed through them in the opposite direction. So, the first three rows are ready. The scheme can be designated as follows: 4-5-6.
Step 4
All subsequent rows must be performed as the third row. For the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh rows, you need to dial ten beads on one end of the wire, and thread the other end of the wire through them in the opposite direction.
Step 5
Further weaving will go down. On the eighth row, nine beads must be strung. On the ninth, there are eight beads. And on the final tenth row there are seven beads.
Step 6
The general pattern of weaving a heart can be written as follows: 4-5-6-10-10-10-10-9-8-7.
Step 7
To make the heart solid, you need to use beads of the same color. Traditionally it is red. But you can add a colored element to the heart. For example, make a white border. Then the beads need to be collected as follows: 1 row - 4 white; 2nd row - 1 white, 3 red, 1 white; 3rd row - 1 white, 4 red, 1 white; 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th row - 1st and 10th beads are white, and the rest are red; 8th row - 1 and 9 beads are white, the rest are red; 9th row - 1 and 8 beads are white, the rest are red; 10th row - 7 white beads.
