Do you want to please the kids and make some Christmas tree decorations with them? Many mothers try to do needlework with their children every day throughout December, creating something on the theme of the holiday. Here's another idea for you - this time weave a snowflake from beads!
It is necessary
Fishing line, bugles, beads, beads, scissors, needles
Instructions
Step 1
Insert the line into the needle. Cast on six beads on the line. Make a ring out of them by entering the first of the beads you collect with a needle. Tie both ends of the line into a single knot to secure the beads to the line.
Step 2
Using a needle from any bead, string several different beads on the fishing line. For example, in the sequence shown in the photo.
Step 3
To get a ray, pass the needle back through all the beads collected in the second step, excluding the extreme - white - bead. She will hold the entire structure.
Step 4
Let's make twigs of glass beads at the end of the ray. Exit the bottom hole of the bugle, pick up the bugle and bead, go back, bypassing the bead.
Step 5
We also weave the third branch.
Step 6
Return to the base of the snowflake.
Step 7
Between each pair of beads at the base, weave a beam in the same way (steps 2-6).
Step 8
Now let's decorate the snowflake with an additional pattern. Exit the bugle at the base, collect more bugles and beads, go back through all the beads, except for the extreme and bugle.
Step 9
Go with the needle into the glass beads of the adjacent ray.
Step 10
Thanks to the glass beads, the rays will be at an equal distance from each other. This will maintain the shape of the snowflake.
Continue braiding in a circle.
Step 11
The snowflake is ready! You can not cut the remaining end of the fishing line, but make a loop out of it and hang the snowflake on the Christmas tree.
