The spring gurgles - “Christ is Risen!”
There are no brighter words in the world -
“Truly Christ is Risen!
Very soon a wonderful bright holiday will come - Easter. All women will bake Easter cakes and paint eggs. And all needlewomen, beginners and craftswomen, will create beautiful original crafts Easter themed: knitted, beaded, dough, plaster, etc. Handicrafts, especially beading, the task is very painstaking and quite lengthy. But, knowing the little secrets, you can do everything much faster, while maintaining the beautiful and impressive appearance of the product.
Today I propose to make a very beautiful souvenir from an ordinary chicken egg and beads. You will spend a maximum of 2 - 3 hours making it, even if you are not familiar with this type of needlework.
So, we will need the following materials:
- beads of two or three colors
- bead thread and needle
-polymer glue
-chicken eggs
- thin satin ribbon.
To begin, take an egg and carefully make small holes on both sides with a knife. Then blow the contents of the egg into some container - for an omelette)), rinse the inside well and put it to dry.
While the egg is drying, we need to string the beads. We take a spool of beaded thread and thread it into a needle with a thin eye. Then pour beads of two or three colors into a suitable container and mix them.
Take not the smallest beads so that they do not get stuck at the end of the needle.
We string beads onto a thread in random order. The thread with beads should be long, but don’t worry if you don’t have enough for the whole egg, then you can always string more.
Take polymer glue (for baguettes) and place a drop on the top of the eggshell. Then cut the satin ribbon and glue it there like a loop.
Next, take the same glue and coat the eggshell with it approximately to the middle. Then carefully glue the egg with a thread with beads, winding it in a circle, starting where the ribbon loop is.
The glue does not harden immediately, so unevenness can always be corrected. After you have glued half the shell, let the glue dry completely and continue again until the egg is completely covered.
We got such a cute souvenir egg. You can experiment by mixing a variety of colors.
To diversify the beaded egg, you can glue a flower onto it, woven according to the pattern of weaving flowers for hyacinth or any other.
This is how quickly and easily you can create a souvenir with your own hands. This is much easier than braiding the base with a mesh of beads or weaving using the bead weaving technique, which requires certain dexterity and considerable skills.
This beaded egg can be more than just an Easter egg. It will look very beautiful both on your Christmas tree for the New Year, and as beautiful pendants somewhere on the wall.
Your imagination, minimum costs and your home will be replenished with a unique souvenir that you will create with your own hands.
I wish you a wonderful Easter, success and creative inspiration, which I hope will appear after watching this master class.
