Lessons on how to create flowers from beads using patterns
Master class No. 1: Forget-me-nots
Remember the cute and touching flowers - forget-me-nots.For these colors, three colors of beads are used: dark blue or bright blue, yellow and soft green. The flower is absolutely simple to make. 6 beads are strung onto a piece of wire (about 10 cm): 1 yellow and 5 blue, as can be seen in the diagram. The free end of the wire is threaded into the second, third, fourth blue bead, then into the yellow one. The ends of the wire are twisted under the yellow bead. The flower is ready. We perform the green leaf according to pattern “c”: transverse weaving in 7 rows. Combine several flowers onto one stem, attach leaves and the mini-bouquet is ready.
Master class No. 2: Daisies
For a bouquet of wildflowers you will definitely needyou will need chamomiles. It will take more time to create a field daisy with your own hands than to create forget-me-nots. But no flower can replicate the true Russian beauty of the charming daisy. The set of beads is almost the same, only replace the blue beads with matte white ones.
10-12 petals are woven from white beadsscheme "a". It is better to take silver wire. The core can be made according to the same pattern as the forget-me-not flower. The chamomile leaves are more complex and carved than in the first pattern. The more interesting the finished flower will look.
Master class No. 3: Bells
Wildflowers are beautiful and simple, just like yourselfnature. If you were picking flowers in the field, you would certainly come across fragile and naive bells. Their natural color ranges from soft blue to deep purple. Therefore, you can choose the beads in the color that you like best. According to pattern “a” you need to weave only 5 petals, since you will collect them in a cup, repeating the shape of a bell. Then you need to make a stamen from yellow or burgundy beads, depending on the color of the petals. The wire itself, on which the stamen is formed, will become the basis for the entire flower. Therefore, its length must be sufficient. A bell is gathered around the stamen, and a green leaf made according to the “c” pattern is attached to the stem below.
Master class № 4: Lilia Successfully completes your first bouquet, completely created by yourself, a gentle and shy snow-white lily.
To make a lily, you will need the same setbeads, as for daisies. Only the lily is a larger flower, which means more beads will be required. The patterns for making the petals and leaves for the lily are similar to the patterns for the bells. Only beaded flowers have different stamens. The lily has three of them, one long and two shorter. Diagram “b” shows the number of beads for the stamens, and to make them thicker, the wire with yellow beads is twisted in a tight spiral.
Now that all the flowers for the bouquet are ready, youYou can make additional greenery of any size from green beads to enliven wildflowers. You can assemble a bouquet in a vase or basket at will, and you can make different variations of bouquets depending on your mood and occasion.
Flower made of beads and bugles
We present to you a photo of a flower made in three rows of bugles and beads. The middle is a large bead.
A weaving pattern for such a product is not required, since the photo clearly shows how the flower is made. By varying the size, color and type of beads, even using this pattern you can create different flowers.
You can do anything using this principle. Elements of missing greenery, dragonfly wings or a flower for a hairpin and brooch.
Schemes are required for complex compositions, for example, for techniques such as mosaic weaving.
Master class No. 5: Rose in mosaic technique
It’s worth saying right away that such a flower is made of beadsIt's not exactly easy to do. The work ahead is painstaking and difficult, but the result is worth all the effort. The rose turns out voluminous and lively, especially if you use 2-3 shades of red and green beads to create a flower.
For a beautiful and natural beaded rose you will need:
- Needle for beadwork;
- Thread from nylon or fishing line;
- Beads of red and green in different shades;
- Base for stem (rod or wire thickness 2-3 mm);
- scissors;
- A round base with holes.
Let's start our master class with the description of the manufactureLeaves for the rose. The size of such sheets can be made different. You can strictly follow the scheme presented below, using two shades of green beads. Moreover, the color can range from dark green to light green. For our case, we will slightly change the color scheme. We mix two shades of bright green pearl beads and we will dial beads on the needle in any order.
For a rose you will need three leaves, whichsewn to the side branch, as seen in the photo. To help the leaves and petals keep their shape better, use a thread or fishing line 0.2 mm thick. When you start weaving a part, the first row will not be completely even. This is how it should be, continue weaving according to the pattern, and after 2-3 rows the element will begin to take the desired shape.
Next, the master class moves on to weaving greenleaf. You need to start from the middle. First, one half of the sheet is woven, then the second. If you use more than two shades of green, make sure they are close in tone.
Then we start weaving the sepals. In roses they are elongated and thin. Weaving them is not difficult. They are sewn at the very end of the work around the perimeter of the finished flower.
Now let's talk about the petals.They can be of different shapes, you can create a diagram for them yourself. They weave in the same way as leaves, starting from the center to the edges. First you need to make one half, then the other. In the two pictures you see two striking examples of mosaic beading of rose petals. You can try any of them, each is worthy of attention. They are slightly different in shape and color scheme, but each of the schemes will help you create a beautiful beaded rose. Now let's take a closer look at weaving petals.
If you want to make the rose shown onphoto, then you will need the following number of petals: one small, three slightly larger petals, five medium and seven largest petals. The first rose petal is vertically twisted into a tube, the remaining petals are collected in order around it.
To weave a rose bud you can takediagram presented below. She shows in detail the step-by-step execution of the petals. The petals shown in other diagrams are woven using the same principle. Often there is a rose and an unopened bud on the same branch. Don't forget to frame your flower with sepals, like a full-fledged rose.
You can decorate the rose stem in different ways.
Examples of weaving using mosaic techniques
Not only roses are made using the mosaic technique,and also many flowers and trees. Moreover, the same type of flower, made in different techniques and color shades, is good in its own way. Poppies, dahlias, asters, gladioli, apple blossoms and sakura look very original using the mosaic technique. Due to the dense weaving and carefully thought out color schemes, the flowers look exceptionally natural.
Not only flowers, but also green leaves of treesthose made using this technique look believable and colorful. If you are bored and have a lot of free time, make an autumn maple leaf from beads, which with its colors will delight you even on the gloomiest and stormiest day. And the fact that you made it with your own hands will warm and cheer you up in bad weather.
