In this master class you will learn how to make a small bouquet from beads. At your discretion, you can create a large bouquet or a whole tree. Everything is so simple that even a beginner can repeat it.
And so, to create a bouquet, prepare beads of several colors:
• green (for leaves);
• lilac translucent (for the middle of the petals);
• lilac with silver inside (for the edge of the petals);
• black large (middle).
Of course, you can choose the colors you want.
You will also need copper wire - match the wire to the color of the beads, if possible, and of such thickness that two edges can easily be threaded through one bead. To imitate the stem of flowers, you will need a green silk thread and glue to secure the cut threads.
You can prepare the wire in advance by cutting it into pieces of 25-30 cm. To create a bouquet we need the following pieces: 25 pieces. for petals (for 5 flowers), 5 pcs.for centers, 7 pcs. for leaves. Total: 37 segments.
Let's start with the petals. Take one piece, put 2 beads on the first end and thread the second end. Fix the beads in the middle of the segment.
In the same way, we collect 3 more beads and thread them through the second end.
We do the same with the remaining rows. The sequence of beading in rows is: 2, 3, 4, 4, 3, 2. After weaving to the end, twist the ends of the wire downward.
Weave the centers. Place one large black bead on a piece of wire, fix it in the center and weave the two ends of the wire as in the picture.
Weave 7 leaves in the same way. The sequence of beading in rows is: 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 2, 2, 1.
These are the blanks you should end up with.
Let's collect flowers. Take five petals and one center. Form a flower.
Holding tightly with your fingers so that the flower does not fall apart, take the thread without cutting it from the spool. Bend the end of the thread 1 cm down so that it does not stick out. Place the thread close to the petals and begin to twist so that each thread fits tightly against each other.
We wind the thread a few more centimeters and insert the leaf. We wind the thread further, forming a stem.
Having wound it to the desired length, cut the thread and seal it with glue.
We form the remaining branches, making for each a different length of stems and arrangement of leaves.
First, we take several flowers and begin to wrap them together from the extreme point where there are no threads. We gradually attach the remaining flowers, forming one trunk.
We wrap the thread to the end and trim the wire so that the end of the barrel is even.
We cut the thread and secure it with glue.
This is how the flower arrangement turns out.
