Of course, Christmas tree decorations can be easily purchased in any store. But the greatest pleasure is making something with your own hands. Literally every new year I try to make a couple of new toys. I must tell you that I work in different needlework techniques. On this site you can find my felting master classes. Christmas balls made of wool. And in this section, you can see how I wove a lamb Christmas tree toy from wire. Wire jewelry is very beautiful. The wire wrap technique involves weaving from wire. Weaving can sometimes be so beautiful that sometimes you admire certain things made of wire. Masters of their craft weave jewelry of incredible beauty and create unique interior items. Of course, most jewelry is made from wire. These can be jewelry made of copper or silver wire, brass or silver-plated wire. Nowadays you can find Christmas tree decorations made of wire. There really aren't that many of them. But still, nowadays you can already find Christmas tree toys made of wire in online stores, and just on the Internet. And today we will weave a snowflake out of it. Well, now let's proceed directly to the master class. What we need for work: Silver-plated wire with different sections.

And, of course, you and I will really needgood mood. If you are in a bad mood, then you don’t even have to start work. In order to do something beautiful, you must be in a good mood. You must understand that mood carries positive energy. The one that is transferred is placed in our wire decoration. That is why it is necessary to weave a toy only in a good mood. So, you and I are in a great mood. Let's get to work. Weaving using the wire wrap technique is, of course, done with wires. Today I am weaving from silver-plated wire with sections of 0.8 mm and 0.4 mm. If you do not have silver-plated wire, then buy a regular two-core wire with copper wires. Strip the wire from the plastic sheath and you will end up with a copper wire from which you will weave a snowflake. To ensure that it is not very bulky, be sure to use a wire with a cross-section of 0.8 mm. There is no need to use thicker wire. Otherwise, the snowflake will not turn out graceful. Prepare the wires. Cut off all the pieces we need for work.Using a thin wire to braid the thicker wire, connect all the wires together. Place two wires crosswise and connect them with thin wire.Also attach a few more pieces of thick wire.Braid with thin wire so that your weaving looks a little like a cobweb.Now we need to make some small details. Let's draw a sketch of the part. Then you need to bend the wire so that it matches the sketch. In this way you need to make a certain number of parts.Continuing to create a snowflake, you need everythingattach the resulting parts to the wire-rays. When weaving wire, you need to handle it very carefully. Try not to bend the wire beams again. Otherwise, the decoration made from it will not look very neat. Handmade Christmas tree decorations should be beautiful, neat, and radiate your positive energy.Next, trim all the edges of the wires.I forgot to mention that when you weave a snowflake, add beads or seed beads as you wish. I added beads and attached a small iridescent bead in the middle. Attach beads and seed beads to the edges of the ray wires. You will need to bend the edges of the wire into a droplet. This is the resulting snowflake. I really hope that you get exactly the same. Isn't it true, beauty?All that remains is to attach the pendant to the snowflake. Make a pendant from a thin wire and attach it.When the pendant is attached, you can hang it onChristmas tree is a wire decoration. Agree! The decoration made using the wire wrap technique looks very beautiful. I have already created many toys. Sometimes my family members say that I have a Christmas tree decorations factory. Create your own Christmas tree decorations. I sincerely wish you creative success and inspiration!
