Lilies of beads: a master class with photos

To produce Bouquet of forest flowers, you will need to prepare some supplies and tools, including:

  • green beads (№ 10) - 60 g;
  • white beads (№10) - 40 g;
  • thin wire (0.3 mm);
  • thicker wire (1 mm);
  • green thread floss;
  • small bowl;
  • scissors;
  • PVA glue.

Also, you may need a small piece of foam or plaster.We recommend that you get for braiding flowers and decorations Czech glass beads.It is inexpensive and yet has quite a high quality.Unlike Chinese beads Czech production basically have the same shape and size, so they are much easier to work with.And besides, they are a long time retain their intense color and a nice shine without dimming over time.After the purchase of materials and site preparation can begin to carry out the delicate and beautiful crafts beads "Lilies of the Valley."How to do it - we will explain below.

first stage of the work: creating buds

Let us first manufacturer of buds and flowers lily of the valley.To do this, we rely on the technique of parallel flat weave.The principle is simple.Prepare white beads and cut off the wire of sufficient length (15-20 cm).Weave the first petal bud will perform as follows.First dial the three beads on a wire that will form the first and second row.Pull them in the middle of the wire and pass one end (toward the other) two beads.So we will form the first two series of the petal.Then the string on one end of the wire three beads, and on the other - two.It remains to fix petal bud.For this prodenem one end of the wire (with the smaller number of glass beads) in the third bead, towards the second end.All - the first workpiece is made.

Still, we need to make the same four petals bud.To do this, again we take a small section of wire and strung him three beads.We form the first two rows.Further, one end of a wire inserted into the two side beads of the first petal.And on the second strung three beads.Threaded end of the wire attached to the first lobe, in the third segment of the second bead.It turns out two lobes joined together.By analogy, we do three of these "details", fastened together.The ends of labor wire last petal beads threaded through the first and fourth petals, thereby forming a bud.We fix the ends of all wires.That's it, the first bud of lily of the valley is made.One will be located on a stalk 3-4 bud.If you plan to make a bouquet, gossips about another 18-20 such elements.

second phase of work: weave flowers

Bead lilies (inflorescence) we will create almost the same as the buds, again using the technique of parallel pleteniya.Raznitsa their weaving is just that, creating a thirdnumber of flower petals should not string together two or three beads and three or four.In this fourth beads will capture the end of the working wires.Hopefully you will not have difficulties with the implementation of inflorescences.In total, we need about 6-7 of these elements to create a sprig of lily of the valley.If you want to create a magnificent bouquet, we advise you to perform a sufficient number of inflorescences (30-35 pcs.).

third phase of work: we fix the buds and flowers on stems

When all the parts are ready, take a thicker wire and attach it to the top first, a few buds and then flower and lily of the valley.Try to fix the elements on one side of the branches and direct "head" of flowers down.It is desirable to maintain a uniform distance between the elements.Remember that the lower on the stem of a flower is, the longer it should have a peduncle.Then we make out a stalk of green floss thread.If necessary, they can fix a small amount of PVA glue.After making the first to carry the analogy a few twigs.

fourth stage of work: carry out the leaves of beads

lilies decorate the large, dark green leaves broadly shape with a pointed tip.In order to make them as realistic as possible, we offer you a French axis technology.For greater clarity, we present you a scheme beading leaves.To work, prepare the wire length of about 60 cm. At one end, do a small loop.Twist underneath the wire several times.Axle nanizhite a sufficient number of green beads (to get the "path" length of 6 cm).Bend the wire at a distance of about 20 cm and screw it into 1 cm. Then follow three arcs, do not forget to make allowances beads.Now do one arc, equal to half the length of the part.So you make a sheet wider in the central part.Then weave two long arcs and fix them, leaving the stalk.All - we have prepared a list of the beads.Lilies of the valley will look beautiful in a bouquet framed several such sheets.Therefore we advise you to do some more of the same broad and long elements.

final stage of work: design bouquet

Get ready to attach the stems and leaves him.Arrange space bonding wires green floss thread so that no unsightly gaps remained.These are available from us gentle and spring lilies of beads (photo in the article).Give a bouquet of realistic shape.Congratulations - complete weaving beads, lilies of the valley are ready!It remains only to come up with a beautiful design for our floral arrangements.For example, you can put a small bouquet in a vase.If the container is too wide neck, use a piece of foam.Secure the stems of lily of the valley in it and place it on the bottom of the vase.If you do not have foam, plaster and take dilute it with water.Pour the mixture into a bowl and put a bouquet.So your composition will be good to stand and keep the shape.Decorate gypsum can be decorative stones, beads or fabric.Now you know how to make beautiful bead lilies.Master-class, I hope you liked and useful.Success!
