Bantik from beads master class of different techniques of weaving (video)
Content
Such a fascinating activity as beading allows you to create unique items from tiny beads in the form of flowers, various crafts and jewelry.
Bows made of beads, complemented with special fasteners, can be transformed into cute hairpins, brooches, earrings or pendants and become a great exclusive gift for your mother or friend.
We offer you several interesting and simple options for making such decoration.
Master class on weaving bow of beads
First, let's prepare the necessary materials and tools:
- Beads of suitable color (it is better to choose Czech);
- Fishing line;
- needle;
- Matches or a lighter (in order to scorch the ends of the line).
To make our bow we will be in the mosaic technique of weaving.
First, we need to string the base of our weaving with a width of 36 beads. We weave with a mosaic of about 20 rows. (photos 1 and 2)

We shorten each new row by one bead (photo No. 3). As a result, you should get a blank, as in photo No. 4. We pull the fishing line through the outer beads so that they are fixed and lie flat (photo No. 5). We do each of the four sides in the same way. In the center we will have a narrow part, 4 beads wide (photo No. 6).

photo 6 We take our central part and beginsew it together, folding it in several folds beforehand (photo 7). Next, using mosaic weaving, we make a strip of four beads, of such a length that will allow us to “surround” the center of our bow (photos №8-10).

French beaded bow
It is necessary to prepare:
- Beads of several shades;
- thread;
- Needle;
- scissors.
In the manufacture of this bow we will also be helped by the technique of mosaic weaving.
We put 23 beads on a thread and weave a mosaic (photos No. 1, No. 2, No. 3).
Next, you need to leave one tail and continue the mosaic weaving, decreasing the beads (photo No. 4).
The process of thread passage can be seen in photo #5. As a result, continuing to weave and decreasing the beads, we will get a fragment as in photo #6.

We put 11 beads on a new thread and weave a small diamond similar to the large one (Photo No. 8-9). In total, we will need two small and two large diamonds.
Let's start the process of connecting two rhombuses with a thread (it will be necessary to pass through the bead marked in photo #10-11). We see the result in photo #12.

We connect the finished halves of the bow as follows: pass the thread through the beads marked in photo #15 on the front and back sides and pull them together and secure.
All that remains is to make a kind of belt for the bow.To do this, string 4 beads on a thread and use our mosaic weaving technique (photo #16). When our belt can wrap around our bow, connect and fasten the thread (photo #17). Admire the result (photo #18).
