In this workshop you will learn how to make a small bouquet of 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 a copper wire - pick the wire according to the color of the beads, if possible, and of such a thickness that it is easy to pass two edges through one bead. To simulate the trunk of flowers, you need a green silk thread and glue to secure the trimmed threads.
You can prepare the wire in advance by cutting it into segments of 25-30 cm. To create a bouquet, we need these segments: 25 pcs. for petals (for 5 flowers), 5 pcs. for the middle, 7 pcs. for the leaves. Total: 37 segments.
We start with the petals. Take one piece, put 2 beads on the first end and thread the second end. Lock the beads in the middle of the line.
In the same way, we collect 3 more beads and thread through the second end.
We do the same with the rest of the rows. The sequence of beads in rows: 2, 3, 4, 4, 3, 2. Having finished to the end, twist the ends of the wire downward.
Weave the middle. Draw one large black bead onto 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 the set of beads in rows: 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 2, 2, 1.
These are the blanks you should get in the end.
Let's collect the flowers. Take five petals and one center. Form a flower.
Hold it firmly 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. Attach the thread close to the petals and begin to twist so that each thread fits snugly against each other.
We wind the thread a few more centimeters and insert the leaf. We wind the thread further, forming a stem.
Having screwed to the desired length, cut the thread and glue it with glue.
We form the remaining branches, making for each a different length of stems and the arrangement of leaves.
First we take some flowers and start wrapping them together from the extreme point where there are no threads. Gradually we fix the remaining flowers, forming one trunk.
Wrap the thread to the end and cut the wire so that the end of the trunk is flat.
We cut the thread and fix it with glue.
Here is such a floral arrangement.
