A palm made of beads.
Today's master class is dedicated to weaving palmsfrom beads. Probably everyone at the lessons of work in the school had at least one lesson devoted to weaving from beads. I had such a lesson, but, unfortunately, we were taught only the basics. And after many years, I decided to go back to that lesson and learn how to weave different interesting crafts with my own hands, and it turned out to be not so difficult! PALM FROM BISERA (banana tree):
We will need: - beads No. 10:green, yellow, brown (I used larger brown beads, but I recommend using only one size for all colors); — Wire 0.3 mm Diameter. First, we need to make banana tree leaves using parallel weaving technique. For each leaf, take a 70 cm long wire and use only green beads. These leaves will be of three different sizes. For small leaves, follow this pattern: 1st row: 1 bead; 2nd row: 2 beads; 3rd row: 3 beads; 4th row: 4 beads; 5th row: 5 beads; 6th row: 4 beads; 7th row: 3 beads; 8th row: 2 beads; 9th row: 1 bead.
We need to make 4 of these small leaves.For the medium leaves, we adhere to the following pattern: There will be 20 rows in total. Starting in the first row with one bead, the 2nd - 2 beads, the 3rd - 2 beads - we add one bead in every second row, and so on until the tenth row. In the tenth row, we will get 6 beads. In the eleventh row, we also make 6 beads, and then we go down in the same way (after one row, 1 bead less).
We need to make 4 of these medium sheets.For large leaves, we follow the same pattern as for medium leaves, only in large ones we will have 24 rows. Thus, we will get a maximum of 7 beads in 12 and 13 rows.
We will have 5 of these large sheets.
Now we make a banana branch from yellow beads. Take two pieces of wire, each 30 cm long. Thread both pieces through one yellow bead.
Place it in the middle. Take 40 beads and put 10 beads on each end of the wire.
Take another yellow bead and thread the 4 ends of the wire through it, pull tight.
We got a bunch of bananas. You can make as many of these banana bunches as you want. I made 3 and intertwined them together.
Let's assemble the banana tree. To increase the strength of the trunk, make another piece of wire 50 cm long, bend it in the middle and connect it to the large leaf.
Let's connect all the large leaves together.
Then take the middle leaves and attach them one by one to the stem just below the previous set of leaves.
A little lower we will attach small leaves to the trunk.
After this, attach bunches of bananas to the tree.
Then we need to decorate the trunk with brownbeads. Take a long wire and attach it to the tree near the bananas. String lots of brown beads onto the wire and wrap it around the trunk from top to bottom, adding more beads if needed.
At the bottom of the barrel, carefully cut off the excess pieces of wire.The banana tree is ready! Place it in a suitable stand and straighten the leaves. Also see the diagrams on how to make beaded jewelry and beaded flowers with your own hands.
