The fly is a short-mousled dipteran insect. Live flies that have flown into the room or sat down on food will become uninvited guests, as they often carry pathogenic bacteria on their paws. In contrast to them, a beaded fly can become an original decoration for an interior or costume, as well as a funny little toy. There are several ways to make a bead fly, here is one of the easiest.
It is necessary
- Wire;
- Two large transparent green beads;
- Light green or dark brown beads for a calf;
- Transparent golden or mother-of-pearl beads for wings;
- Gray or black beads for the legs.
Instructions
Step 1
Make the body of a fly. To do this, cast three light green beads through one end of the wire to the middle of the segment (no more than 50 cm). With the other end of the wire, go through the two outer beads to form a triangle. Cast on one end of the wire the next row of three beads, pass through them with the other end. In the same way, dial the following rows. The number of beads in them: 4 4 4 3 2. Next, dial a row of two large beads that will be eyes, a row of two light green beads and a row of one gray bead. Hide and cut the ends of the wire.
The rows should be tightly pulled together and pressed against each other.
Step 2
In the same technique, weave the wings, gaining rows with as many beads: 2-3-4-4-4-4-3-2. Connect the ends of the wire between the wings and the body, weaving the wings into the sides. Hide and cut the ends of the wire.
Step 3
Braid the legs. To do this, dial eight beads with one end of the wire in the middle. Pass the other end from the second to the eighth bead so that the ends are together. Slip one end through the first bead in the back row of four (on the body). Step out onto your side through the outermost bead of the second row of four beads from the back. Cast on eight more beads, go from the second to the eighth and go through the outermost bead on the body, then through the outermost bead of the next row. Cast on eight more beads, secure in the same way, hide and cut the end. Repeat on the other side.
Step 4
Spread the legs so that the front sight can stand without touching the ground with the belly. The bead fly is ready.
