People created jewelry from beads, beads,shells and other materials dating back centuries. With the help of wickerwork, they not only decorated themselves and their clothes, but also created protection and expressed their attitude to the world by depicting ritual pictures. Beads in the form in which we know them came to us from Egypt. The ancient Egyptians valued these drilled pieces of glass so much that they used them like precious stones. Beads were also used by the Syrians, as well as the nomadic Scythian peoples. Today, beads are quite accessible for needlework and a wide variety of crafts are created from them. I suggest you weave a bracelet like this.To work, you need to choose the right size and color:

Large beads;
small beads, slightly larger than beads;
beads;
needle and nylon thread;
clasp for jewelry;
scissors.

You can combine colors in a variety of ways.I chose white beads and blue beads for my craft; the combination, in my opinion, is fresh and pleasant. You can also combine colors. Let's get to work. Step one – we thread two large beads through the needle. We don’t bring them to the end of the thread, we leave a fairly large tail – you will need it.Step two – put six beads on the needle.And we string a small bead and six more beads.Step three – we return to the very beginning and thread the needle through two large beads.It turns out this design – two beads and a chain of beads on the right.We repeat step two again and string six beads, a small bead and six more beads onto the thread.Repeat step three – again thread the needle through two large beads. Only now we place the chain of beads on the left side.Let's start the next cycle. We put on the third large bead.Then we again put six beads on the thread, a bead and six more beads.Now you need to go back and thread the needle through the second and third large beads. This is easier to do if you move them slightly to the side.The second chain of beads lies on top of the first on the right side.We string the beads and bead again.We return and thread the needle through the second and third beads, drawing the chain from the left side.From the side our product now looks like this.We continue to work, adding one large bead and two bead chains. This is what a product made of five beads looks like – It’s already becoming clear how it will be in the finished product.Now we have part of a bracelet made of seven beads. At this stage, you can try the product on the future owner and estimate how much more you need to collect.Now I have a bracelet of 12 beads ready – enough already!Let's move on to the final part of creating the bracelet. We put four small beads on the thread.After the beads, we fasten the first half of the clasp – ring. We attach it carefully so that it does not come off, we tie the slippery nylon thread into several knots so that it does not come undone.On the other hand, we put a needle on the remaining thread, string 4 beads and carefully fasten the second part of the clasp.This is how the bracelet turned out!My craft was intended for a little girl.Babies love to be fashionable and imitate their mothers, so they often ask for jewelry. However, purchased jewelry, despite its abundance, is not always suitable in size, color or style. And such a homemade decoration, into which the craftswoman has put her soul, will definitely be both suitable and to your liking!Imagine with flowers, create and delight your loved ones!
