Brooch in the form of a bow of beads own hands

With the help of a simple scheme, our master classHelp create a beautiful bow. He can become a brooch, or any other accessory. Everything will depend on its size, and therefore on the size of the beads that you will use to create it.
In order to make such a cute one with your own handsthing, prepare beads of two or more colors, but absolutely the same size. Also for weaving a bow you will need a fishing line or a special thread for beads, a needle of the appropriate size and scissors.
Cut a thread or fishing line of a convenient size,we thread it into the needle and string 23 beads onto the thread. We go through the first row using the mosaic weaving technique and then continue, decreasing the beads in each row. Thus, we create a triangular figure. When we have two beads left, we fasten the thread the way you like best. Now we attach the thread to the wide part of the triangle and weave in the opposite direction in exactly the same way. At the end of the weaving, we fasten the thread again. Now we have a rhombus from the triangular figure. This master class involves creating two absolutely identical rhombuses.







After we finished weaving the large onesrhombuses, we move on to smaller details. To create a small rhombus, we string not twenty-three beads on the thread, but eleven. We weave, not deviating from the previous pattern for large rhombuses. In the end, there should also be two small details.


Position the large diamond so that it hashorizontal direction. Count six rows from the right corner. In the seventh row, identify the fifth bead from the top. Insert the needle into it and pass it through the bead located next to it - in the eighth row. Attach a small rhombus. To do this, pull the fishing line through both beads located at the top of the corner of the rhombus. Fasten and cut the thread or fishing line with which you tied the rhombus. The second half of the bow is created in the same way. Now you need to connect two opposite corners of the large rhombus. This should be done with both blanks.





You can see the process of weaving a bow with your own hands in the diagram.

Connect both finished halves together.In this case, pass the fishing line or thread that you are using through all the beads. Four on one side, in the place where you connected the two corners of the rhombus and the same on the other half of the bow. Fasten the thread and cut it.


And now we need to add to our bowimitation of a knot. To do this, using the same mosaic weaving, we will create a jumper. To do this, we will collect four beads and weave a rectangle of such a size that we can wrap it around the middle of the bow.
To complete our master class, you just need tosew this jumper in its place, in the middle of the bow. And that's it. Our bow is ready. Now all that's left is to attach a clasp to it, used for brooches. The clasp can be sewn or glued to the brooch using Moment glue.



The same bow can be attached to hairpins.Or add fittings to it and turn it into an earring. Then it is better to make the same paired bow. Or you can even use it as a decoration for a postcard or a notebook. But then it should be made of very small beads. Also, based on this pattern, you can develop a completely individual version. Add stripes, a cage or even polka dots to your bow. Experiment with colors and shades and you will certainly get a very original accessory.

Master-class composition bead brooch

Composite brooch - this is a brooch made of beads,Which consists of separate elements. All these elements are assembled together and represent a harmonious composition. It's not difficult to make a composition brooch with your own hands. Consider this process using the example of creating a clover leaf with a ladybug and a drop of dew. We will use the following simple schemes.

This master class uses the simplest weaving techniques, which are easy to perform even for beginner needlewomen.
To weave a four-leaf clover youYou will need two types of light green material. These are transparent beads and matte ones. And also green wire and one pearl-colored bead. Each clover leaf consists of two halves. Weave and assemble the leaf according to the pattern. After the clover is assembled, sew a pearl bead to it. It will imitate a drop of dew.

Now we will create God's work with our own handsladybug. For this we will need red and black beads. They should be absolutely the same size. Use a wire of a color that will go well with any shade of beads. Use the parallel weaving technique, focusing on the diagram. When finished, attach your bug to the clover leaf.
That's it. Our master class is finished, as is our brooch. All that's left is to attach it to the clasp and decorate something with this cute little thing.
Such a cute leaf can be combined not only with a bug, but also with small flowers. You can also make a similar pendant to match your brooch.

Brooch made of beads using cabochon

You can not make brooches from beads with your own hands.Only by weaving, but also by sewing beads on a fabric or felt base. In this way, you can create beautiful products of completely different shapes and colors. You can use only beads, and you can embroider cabochons and add beads of all shapes. You can also braid the beads with braided braids of wire.
To weave a cabochon with beads, you first need toglue it to the fabric. After the workpiece dries. Then we begin weaving, or rather embroidering the first row. Sew on two beads using the "forward needle" method. Again, sew these two beads and add two more. Now pass the needle through three beads and add two more. Continue this way until the end of the row.












Inside the first row, create the second one usingsmaller beads. It is the second row that will be the element that holds the cabochon. When it is done, you need to pass the thread around the circle a couple of times. Now we weave the third row outside the first ring.





You can also continue to decorate the brooch using stone chips.







We glue the clasp to a piece of leather.Glue the same piece of leather on top of this clasp, in which we have made holes for it in advance. And we attach this part to our workpiece using beads. In principle, you can stop at this stage, but you can still decorate the edge in some way. Add beaded loops or protrusions. This can already be an independent brooch.








Such a master class may be just a stagecreating something bigger. You can combine similar blanks into one and combine them with various beads and decorative elements. Attach parts made using weaving. This way you can create with your own hands not only a brooch, but also bracelets, necklaces and even beautiful belts from beads.
