A wide variety of jewelry can be made from beads: beads, brooches, necklaces, earrings, bracelets. However, many interesting crafts can be woven from these beautiful beads, which will become a wonderful decoration for your home or an original gift for people close to you.
It is necessary
- - beads;
- - thin wire;
- - scissors.
Instructions
Step 1
For the core of the flower, cut a piece of wire 30 cm long. String three beads. Line up the ends of the wire and thread both ends through three more beads, parallel to the first row.
Step 2
Now start creating the petals. String the required number of beads onto one of the ends (the more there are, the longer the petal will turn out). Next, pull the wire through the first bead. Thread the wire through the next core bead and repeat this step one more time. Make three petals at one end of the wire and in the same way at the other. Pull the wire as tight as possible.
Step 3
To make the core appear more voluminous, attach a larger bead on top by pulling both ends of the wire through it.
Step 4
For the stem, cut two pieces of wire to the desired length. String a few green beads. Then separate one wire and put the beads on it, fold it in half and pull the wire through the first bead. Thus, you have got a piece of paper. Then string two or three more on two pieces of wire and make another sheet on the opposite side in the same way. Next, continue stringing the beads onto the two wires to the desired stem length.
Step 5
Pull the ends of the wire on the stem through the core bead and twist it, cut off any excess. Your flower is ready.
Step 6
If you make several simple flowers of different sizes, put them on top of each other, securing them with a wire in the middle, you get a voluminous flower, for example, a chrysanthemum or dahlia. And from several flowers, make a mini-bouquet.
Step 7
To weave a more complex and, therefore, more spectacular flower, you will need a little more beads. Cut a piece of wire about half a meter long. String on one bead and secure in the middle. For the next row - two, and pull the wire through the bead of the previous row. Next, string three beads onto the other end of the wire and pull the wire through the previous row.
Step 8
Continue to weave, adding one bead per row. After you string to the desired width of the petal, weave, decreasing one bead in each row. Finish the piece with one bead and twist the remaining ends of the wire. Make some of these petals.
Step 9
Take a larger bead, slide it over the wire and twist it. Fold all the petals around the core and secure.
