We begin our journey into a fairytale andthe magical world of beadwork, which never ceases to enchant with its magnificence and diversity. Every person who masters this handicraft can, if desired, make beaded flowers and trees, as well as jewelry.
Rings and brooches, necklaces and chokers, bracelets andearrings make up an incomplete list of jewelry that can be made with beading. But in addition to this, it is possible to make some unusual things, such as a crown, a headband, and even a collar from beads. Now we will talk about how to make such an accessory as a collar with your own hands, using the method of weaving from beads and beads, and decorate your dress with it.

Chic collar of beads by own hands

We start the master class with the necessary materials and tools:

Large black beads (3x4mm) - 706 pieces;

Beads are black 6x4 mm - 40 pieces;

Beads are black 8 mm - 100 pieces;

The chain is large - 10 cm;

Two rings with 5 mm each;

Clasp;

Beaded thread;

Two beaded needles;

Lighter;

Round nose pliers;

Pliers;

Nippers or scissors.

So, let's get started. Such a collar is very easy to weave, you do not even need a circuit. This collar consists of three parts, the base and two halves. For the halves we will use beads of two sizes: 8 mm and beads 3x4 mm.
We take a meter of thread and thread both ends intoneedles. We string two beads and one 8mm bead on the needle, and only an 8mm bead on the second needle. We move them all to the center of the thread. Next, we take two beads and thread them with needles from different sides, also moving them down the thread. These beads act as a stopper for all the others. We will get a figure where the top and bottom are made up of two beads, and on the sides there is one large bead. This is one composite link of the chain. The length of the chain will consist of twenty such links. For a more complete impression, watch the video.

Now we will string one of the large beads onto each needle, and complete the new link with two small beads, threaded through the needles in different directions and closing the next link of the weave.

We continue our weaving, as a result of whichwe get a chain of beads and beads. For a beautiful finish to the chain, you can bring the thread to one side and make several knots, which you can then hide in the holes of the beads. If you are weaving a collar on a fishing line, you can simply melt its ends.

Now we need to expand the chain to fivelarge beads horizontally. Vertically we already have twenty such large beads. We again take a thread one meter long, and thread two needles into its ends. We thread the needle into the first large bead on the side. We string two small and one large bead on the left thread, and then close the link with two small ones, as before. Next, we thread the right thread into the next large bead on the right, and we string one large bead on the left, and close the link as usual with two beads. That is, we make the second chain, but its right bead is common with the first chain. We finish weaving the second row, and begin weaving the next one. We work like this until we get the required width, which is five large beads.

We will do the final row in this way.We string five beads on the left thread, and thread the fifth one with needles from different sides. Then we thread the right thread into the large bead on the right. We string four small ones on the left thread, and we thread the last one with needles from different sides, as we always do. So we continue to weave the entire row, to the very end. One half of our beaded collar is ready. We need to make two such identical halves.

Continuing the master class, we make a base forcollar that will decorate any of our dresses. You will need two meters of thread for it. We thread the thread into two needles and string four beads on one of them, pushing them down the thread. Then we put on a 6x4 mm bead and thread it from the other side with the second needle. As a result, we get the first link of our base. Then we string two small beads on each needle, and a large one, 6x4 mm, in the middle. We make the following links in the same way until we use twenty large beads. So, when we have used twenty large ones, half of our base is woven.

Now you need to make the middle with your own handsof this very base. To do this, we put one small bead on each needle, and two small beads in the middle. This link will be the center of the collar base. I would like to give you a little advice. If you want to make the neckline more round, then use a fishing line for weaving. If you use a beaded thread, then the neckline of the collar will be sharp. We finish weaving the second half of the base according to the same rule as the first. The base is ready, and now you need to connect all three parts together, the base and the two halves, to decorate our dress with a beaded collar.

To do this, take a meter of thread and put it on itsmall bead. We pass the first needle through the large bead of the half, and the second needle through two small beads of the base. Next, we take one small one and pass it with needles from different sides. We pass the thread on the right again through the large bead of the half, and the thread on the left through two small bases. This is how you need to connect the entire row. We do the same with the second half. The final phase of the work is to add a chain and a lock using connecting rings.

The collar is ready, and the master class is over. It is advisable to supplement it by watching the corresponding video.

Openwork collar of beads

Collars of beads and beads, which can beMake their own hands, are different in both their form, color, and design of the scheme. The model, design and color of the collar are chosen depending on which dress you want to wear with it.

Our second master class will tell you about a very beautiful and fragile-looking openwork collar made of beads.
The material we will need:

Beads 4x3mm - 449 pieces.

Beads number 10 - 25 grams.

"Droplets" - 10x15mm, 14 pieces.

Beads on 8mm - 15 pieces.

The line is 0.25 mm in diameter.

Needles are beaded.

Scissors.

The color of the consumable material you can choose at will. It should depend on what kind of dress you want to decorate with this collar.
First, let's make the base of the collar.To do this, take two meters of fishing line, thread a needle into one end, and make a ring of seven beads on the other. To do this, thread all seven into the needle, move them almost to the very end of the fishing line, and tie the main fishing line to the end. Then, following the pattern, we string one small bead, a large one, and one seed bead. Thread only the large bead in the opposite direction, tighten the fishing line, put three more small beads on it, and thread the needle into the third bead of the finished ring.

Now we string four more beads, andwe pass the needle into the third of them from the place where our fishing line comes out. Then we string five beads, and pass into the third of them from the top. And again we string four beads, passing into the third of them from the place where the fishing line comes out. There will always be four pieces in the upper part, it is easy to remember.

We make a pendant at the bottom by putting on a small bead,and a large bead. We return to the large one, string three more smaller beads, and go through the third from the top. Then we will repeat this cycle until we have fifteen pendants. We have made only the base of the collar so far, but it can already decorate any elegant dress. You will see this if you watch the video on this topic.

Our base is ready.Now we will take one and a half or two meters of fishing line and embroider it with beads with our own hands. So, we will string one small bead on the fishing line. Then we will string it on the base, in the first gap between the pendants, in the middle one. And now, having put on two more beads, we tie the base of the fishing line to the end, cut off the excess and burn it with a lighter. We have a cross made of beads, which we pass with a needle clockwise, and bring the thread out of the right bead down. We string 16 beads and one small bead on this thread.

Now we move to the next link, insert the needlein the middle bead, add two more, and form a cross. That is, we will repeat the same operation that we did in the first link. We get an arc that goes around the large hanging bead. We repeat the same weaving to the very end of the row. We continue to weave rows, stringing a drop pendant and a bead at the beginning of each row. The arcs of sixteen beads will be located one under the other. And the rows will also end with a drop and a bead. Each new row should be started one link further, and finished one link earlier than the previous one. This will give the collar a rounded shape. When the collar is finished, the drop beads in the amount of 14 pieces will all be suspended below along the entire circumference of the collar.

We have reviewed the second master class,which was about how to weave openwork collars from beads with your own hands with video materials. Such collars are very elegant and beautiful, and can make any festive dress elegant.
