Master class on beads braided line
- strong thread of different colors;
- 6 red and 6 black beads;
- colorless beads packing number 10 weighing 25 g;
- 2 large crystal beads;
- thin needle for beads;
- zip cord;
- hook.
Braid will consist of 6 beadsconnected in a circle. Cord can produce both larger or smaller number of circular beads. But, if the beads will be too much, the necklace can not simply bend.
The work itself will consist ofmake a craft from beads 42 cm long (the number 42 is multiplied by the number of beads in the line - 6). The finished amount of 252 is measured in centimeters: in this order, you need to collect approximately 250 centimeters of beads (2.5 m) on the cord thread, as shown in the diagrams.
Now that there are 2.5 m of beads left on the thread,you need to pick up 6 black and 6 red beads from both directions of the cord, and also leave 25 cm of thread from the edge to install the clasp. Next, beading will be done in stages, moving the beads and unwinding the fishing line. For the cord, you need to prepare about 50 m of thread.
Stepping back from the strung beads, you should weavecrochet a chain stitch for the cord, as shown in the photo. Then you need to move the main black bead into the first eye to weave another similar bead loop. This loop should then be the basis of the necklace for closing the ring. This action must be done with the next 5 beads for the cord, and this master class will be happy to help with this.
When crafting with 6 black beadswill be finished, you can begin to weave the final eye to the first, founding the turn - the main part of the cord. And now the beading goes around the circumference: 6 pieces of beads of red shades need to be added without adding the already existing material. With the help of the video, you can get acquainted with this process in detail.
Beads on the outer line are almost alwayslie perpendicularly, but in this situation the cords should have inverted beads with holes facing up, which occupy a horizontal position, as shown in the diagram.
Now that the beads have already been woven into the necklaceall beads are scarlet, you can start working with crystal beads, which will be attached along the cord ring. Weaving should be done until the "reserve" of 2.5 m of beads is finished. For beginner needlewomen, this procedure may seem very easy and exciting.
In conclusion, one line is woven with only a thread,without beads: they will be with the holes facing up, like the bead cord itself. Now you need to cut the thread from the spool to make a large eye without throwing it off the hook. The end of the cord, made with your own hands, is now ready for the next work.
Now there is only a little left.It is necessary to thread 1 crystal bead on the thread at the beginning and at the end of the cord with a needle, and also sew a clasp to a large bead. Next, you need to do this: in the places of the cord lock there are additional small rings through which you need to thread the thread. It should be pulled through a large bead, and also hooked onto the thread that runs in the middle of the previous line of the bundle, as you can see in the photo. It is advisable to do this many times so that the lock sits tightly. Now the thread must be secured with knots, thread the needle into the cord for a few centimeters and cut.
This is how you can make wonderful neck decorations – beaded cords.
