Make such a simple flower with your own handsis quite feasible even for beginners. And if you are just starting to do beading and are weaving flowers for the first time, then the weaving process itself may not be entirely clear. Use our video tutorials on weaving in different techniques, and everything will fall into place. The video clearly shows the sequence of actions and the weaving masters talk about all their actions.






Master class of weaving daffodils from beads

For the master class "Narcissus from beads" we will need:

  • Beads of yellow, light yellow, green, white and orange;
  • Corrugated beads;
  • Wire thickness 0,4 mm;
  • Line or monofilament;
  • needle for beads;
  • scissors;
  • pliers;
  • PVA glue;
  • Green thread for embroidery;
  • Cocktail tube.

For work it is possible to take both transparent beads, and matte. The photo shows that both kinds are used here.
To demonstrate the weaving, we will take brightly colored beads and thick wire to describe the weaving of daffodil petals.
To form a petal, take the wire andwe make a loop of the size we need. We tie the monofilament on the loop and start weaving. We collect such a number of beads that the chain lies inside the contour of the wire loop.
In order to secure the first row tightly in the outline, wrap the thread around the edge of the petal and pass the needle through the bead chain again. As shown in the photo.

Continue weaving. Starting to weave the second row, hold the needle over the wire.

Then pass the needle and thread through the first bead.first row, pick up a bead and pass through the first and second bead, pick up a bead again, pass through the second into the third and so on to the end of the row. At the end, the needle should be on top of the work again. Turn the weaving, wrap the thread around the edge of the wire petal and pass the needle through the second row of beads for additional strength.

When weaving is narrowing, then in the current row, instead of 2 beads, only 1 is woven in, or instead of 3, 2 are woven in.

This is what beading looks like whenthe narrowing of the petal begins. In this photo you can see that the narrowing is done by decreasing the beads at the edges. Instead of 3 beads, 2 are woven in. In the same way, you can make a decrease in the middle of the row.

The same technique is used to weave on a wire frame, both the mosaic technique and the African Ndebele technique. You can determine the technique you want to use to make your beaded daffodils.




Let's get started with our master class.
To weave a yellow or white petal, takea piece of wire about 23-25 ​​cm long, bend it in half. We string 12 beads on the thread. We tie the end of the thread and weave from the middle of the petal up, decreasing by 1 bead in each row. Weaving will be finished when there are 2 beads left in the row.
We fix the thread and turn the work, continue the same weaving. We start with 12 beads. In each subsequent row we make decreases:

  • 1 р .: 12 beads;
  • 2 r .: 10;
  • 3 r: 9;
  • 4 r .: 8;
  • 5 r: 7;
  • 6 r .: 5;
  • 7 r .: 4;
  • 8 r .: 2.

When the weaving ends, the ends of the wire are twisted. Before this, the braided cloth is straightened. According to this scheme, another five petals.

All the petals are twisted together and secured with wire.

To make the core of the flower, first weaveribbon in mosaic technique from yellow beads. The ends of the ribbon are closed and an edging is made. At the bottom, the edging is woven from the same yellow beads, narrowed downwards, at the top, on the contrary, widened upwards and orange at the end. As a result, we get the same core as a real daffodil in the form of a tube. There is no single pattern for this part of the flower, so each craftswoman weaves it in her own way.

We make a base for the core from a ribbed bead and seed beads.

We attach the base to the core tube, passing the ends of the base wire through the last row of the tube.

We attach them with the same pieces of wirecore to the flower, passing the ends of the wire through the twisted petals of the daffodil. After this, all the free ends are tightly fastened together with one of the free ends of the wire.

To make the stem of the flower, tubesfor cocktails are connected to each other so that the flower is stable. Two tubes are cut lengthwise and inserted into the third. All the twisted wire ends of the flower are folded several times and a long wire is attached to them to pass it through the tube.

We pull a single wire through the stem-tube, pull the flower so that it is pressed tightly to the stem, then we pass it again through the puncture in the middle of the tube.

To decorate the stem, you need to coat it with glue and wrap it with colored thread.

The green long leaves are woven last. If you make them on a single contour, it will not support the weight of the leaf. Weave the leaves on the basis of a double contour.

Green leaves are sewn togetherwire outline, put on the stem and sewn to the stem itself. For reliability, pierce the stem through in several places and sew the leaves for sure.

Narcissus from beads, weaving pattern of whichdescribed in this master class, ready. You can weave as many flowers as you like and make a bouquet, and it can include not only beaded daffodils, but also other flowers you love. They will delight you not only on sunny spring days, but also on cold and bad weather days, because beaded flowers will never wither.

There are different patterns for beaded daffodils.weaving, this is only one of the few. This method is good because the petals are strictly outlined by a wire contour and look like real ones. Although it is more troublesome than some others.
Which scheme you choose for creating daffodils is up to you, we wish you success and many creative and imaginative works!
