Pink Bead: gradual weaving of their own hands (photo)

The beaded florist is called upon to perpetuate the beauty of flowers, which knows no bounds, thanks to the floral diversity that pleases our eyes.
Carnation is a strict and graceful flower. Today, about three hundred species of this plant are known. Try to recreate its beauty with your own hands with us.
Red Carnation Bead own hands
For weaving clove beads, we need:
- Beads red;
- green beads;
- Beading wire 0.3 mm in diameter;
- green thread (can be replaced by floristic tape).
To create a clove bud beaded we need to weave four levels petals of red beads.
To weave the initial level, we will needmake three loops, which consist of five red beads. To do this, on a piece of wire sixty-five centimeters long, you need to string five beads, twist the first loop from them, which will be the central one. Next, at an equal distance, we make the next two symmetrical loops. Now the ends of the wire under the resulting loops must be twisted together. As a result, we get the first level of the carnation bud from beads, as in the photo:
The second level already consists of six red ones.petals, which include two loops each. To create such petals, take a piece of wire one hundred centimeters long. At a distance of thirty centimeters from any of its ends, pick up five red beads and form the first loop. Next, string so many beads on the long end of the wire that they can wrap around the first created loop and closely touch it. Continue weaving and create five more such double loops.
Now we need to connect them togetherthe first and second levels of petals. To do this, take the first level blank and thread it into the center of the second level. The photo shows the entire process in detail. The ends of the wire from the two levels need to be twisted together. Next, with your own hands, arrange the petals of the second level in a circle so that the same gaps are obtained among the petals that are located next to each other.
The third level will consist of sixpetals. To weave it, prepare a piece of wire 1.25 m long. Creating this level is similar to weaving the second row, except that all the petals will contain three loops.
At a distance of thirty centimeters from any ofWe form the first pelka with the ends of the wire. Then, using the long end, we collect red beads twice and wrap the first and then the second loop with a low bead.
The completed third level blank must beinsert into the center of the bud, which currently consists of two levels. Next, you need to twist the resulting ends of the wire together and arrange the petals of the third level in a circle.
The fourth row of petals is woven separately from each other on different wire segments. The length of each such segment is seventy-five centimeters.
One petal of the fourth level consists offour loops, located one above the other. In order for any of the ends of the wire to be the same length during weaving, you need to start forming the first loop at a distance of thirty centimeters from any of the ends of the wire. Finishing the weaving, the resulting free ends located at the base of the petal must be twisted together.
In total, to create a full fourth level of a carnation bud from beads, we create eight such blanks.
In order to connect eight to each otherpetals, you need to prepare an additional wire about seventy centimeters long and attach them one by one to each other, threading the wire through the bead that is at the base of the petals.
Next, all eight petals need to be tightlypull them together, align the ends of the auxiliary wire segment and twist them together. At the same time, we do not twist the ends of the main wire, which go directly from the petals themselves.
We attach the finished fourth level to the first three.
Now we need to place the bud onworking surface ("face" down) and straighten all the ends of the wires from each of the petals of the fourth level on different sides. Next, we connect such ends in pairs and string eleven green beads on them. We do the same on the auxiliary section of wire. In total, we should have nine paired ends with eleven green beads strung on them.
We put the ends of the wires together and move the green bead close to the base of the bud. We twist the resulting ends of the wires under the bud together.
This concludes the master class on weaving a bud from beads and we begin creating leaves.
To create long, narrow leaves,characteristic of carnations, we use the parallel weaving technique. We will make four leaves in total: two upper and two lower. The upper leaves will be shorter than the lower ones.
We weave the upper leaves on a piece of wire sixty centimeters long according to the following pattern:
- 1st row - one bead green;
- from the 2 nd to 10 th rows - two green beads.
The lower leaves are created on a wire segment fifty centimeters long according to the following pattern:
- 1st row - one bead green;
- from the 2nd to the 15th rows - two green beads.
We begin to assemble the parts of our carnation.Using green threads, begin to wind the wire stem, starting from the base of the bud. As you wind, attach a pair of upper leaves. Next, resume winding exactly until the moment when you decide to attach the next pair of lower leaves. After that, continue to decorate the stem with green threads until the end.
