A beautiful hand-made article will decorate the interior of the house, villa and even the office.
Necessary materials
To create lilac branches from beads, you need to prepare the necessary materials. To start the weaving, it is necessary to take:
- copper wire, which is needed to form twigs;
- florlent;
- PVA;
- gypsum;
- aluminum wire to create a tree trunk;
- paints (acrylic, gouache or oil);
- self-hardening clay.
What else do you need? It's easy to answer: among other materials that are needed in order to realize this master class, there are a wood mold, nail polish, beads of lilac and green shades. Still need a wire of 0.3 mm.
On a note! For weaving a bouquet of lilacs it is recommended to take the wire of the same color as the beads.
Master class on making lilac from beads
Following the instructions and using a step-by-step master class, it is not difficult to create a beautiful bouquet of lilac from beads. The scheme for creating a beautiful crafts is simple. The main thing is to beautifully weave all the loops for leaves and inflorescences.
Creation of flowers
Step 1 - First you need to take a wire about 32 cm long. You need to get 5 beads on it. They need to be located in the central part of the wire. Now the right side of the wire needs to be carried through the first bead. It must be brought to the left end in the opposite direction. Then the eyelet tightens. It is important that the fragment is in the middle of the wire.
Step 2 - Then you need to type 5 beads on the right edge of the wire, after which the end is passed through the very first fragment in the opposite direction. The beads should be closely pushed to the first loop and tightened. This version of the weave, as in the photo, is simple. The main thing is to follow the scheme clearly and be attentive.
Step 3 - Now on the left edge of the wire you need to type 5 more beads. They are passed through again through the first fixed fragment. But you need to act in the opposite direction. Then, according to the scheme, the beads for the future tree of lilac should be pushed to the previous element. It must be tightened. This is the third loop.
Step 4 - At any end of the wire you need to make another loop of beads. But it is worth considering that ready-made fragments for the future tree of lilac may be misplaced. In this case, it is recommended to expand the elements for the inflorescence in 1 row.
Step 5 - Then, following the step-by-step instructions, you need to take both edges of the wire and twist their ends together. Need to do 2 turns. Now, according to the scheme, the ends that are stacked with each other, you need to dial 4 beads. Then they should be advanced to the previous loops. Then the workpiece with the 4 selected fragments must be bent so that they are perpendicular to the other elements. Then weaving the fragments for the future tree from the beads is completed. So, it turns out 1 flower of lilac from beads, which then becomes part of a large inflorescence.
Formation of inflorescences and buds
To obtain full-fledged inflorescences, you need to make 78 such flowers-blanks of lilac from beads. Now we need to start forming the inflorescences of lilac from beads. According to the step-by-step instructions, each of these elements consists of 6 flowers. It is not difficult to start the weaving here.
Step 1 - It is enough to take only 6 such blanks and twist them into a single element. So it turns out inflorescence.
Note! Such elements need to be done 13.
Step 2 - What do you need to do next? It's easy to answer here: wrap each element with threads about 3 cm. It's important to do it neatly and beautifully. On this creation of inflorescences for twigs of lilac from beads comes to the end. In the photo you can see the finished fragment.
Step 3 - Now you need to start shaping the bud from the beads. To do this, take 1 inflorescence, which will become central. Then it is necessary to begin fastening to it 4 more such fragments. This is done in a circle. In this case, it is necessary to retreat by 2-3 cm. Then, in the same way, 4 more blanks are fixed for the future branch, from which a beautiful bouquet will later turn out. They also need to be strengthened with threads.
Step 4 - The last 4 fragments for lilac from beads also need to be fastened in a circle. Next, the bud should be attached to the bud and wrapped in threads.
Note! The spoke is needed to strengthen the bud. Thanks to her, the stock for the future lilac will hold well and will not bend.
Weaving of leaves
When the inflorescences for the tree are ready, we need to begin weaving the leaves of the beads. For this, it is optimal to use the parallel weaving technique. Help in the work will have a photo.
Step 1 - You need to take a wire of 40 cm. You need to dial 3 beads. They are fixed in the center. The right end in reverse motion is passed through 2 beads and tightened. This will make 1 and 2 a row of lilac leaf.
Step 2 - On the right edge of the wire you need to dial 3 beads, after which the left end should be drawn back through 3 beads. Then the wire is tightened. So, it is possible to make a 3 row leaflet. What to do next? The answer is simple. By the same principle weave 4 rows. Next, you need to make lilac leaves of beads, which then will be attached to the branches of the tree, thus:
- 4 rows - 4 beads;
- 5 row - 5 beads;
- 6 rows - 6 pieces;
- 7th row - 7 fragments;
- 8 row - 6 elements;
- 9 row - 5 beads;
- 10 row - 3 beads;
- 11 row - 1 piece.
As a result, you create a half leaf, to which you need to pripesti still the same fragment.
Step 3 - What should I do to achieve this? The answer is simple: take the wire (40 cm) and pass through the upper bead. On 1 bead it is necessary to type on each end of a preparation. The left end is passed through his own beads and tightened to make a loop. Wire closer to the middle of the leaf is passed between 1 and 2 near. Then the fragment should be tightened well. Two beads are placed on the wire, and the opposite end is passed through them in the opposite direction. Then the end of the wire, located closer to the center of the leaf, is passed between 2 and 3 rows.
On a note! When weaving 3 rows of material is weaved between 3 and 4 lines.
Following this scheme, you need to make 6 leaves. Then each leaf is wrapped on a 2.5 cm thread. Finished leaves, which can be seen in the photo, are twisted together. The result should be a beautiful twig. It remains only to take the ready bud and fasten it with a twig, wrapping the entire structure with threads.
As you can see, weaving is not so complicated. It is quite possible to make yourself a small twig for a tree. Everything will turn out neatly and beautifully. The main thing is to use a step-by-step master class. As a result, you will get a wonderful piece made of beads, which in all its appearance embodies the spring and the beginning of a new life. Do not be afraid to start a job: it is not as difficult as it might seem. Photo and video will help to correct the process of creating branches for a miniature tree.
