Rowan bead: weaving scheme and master-class with step-by-step photos

The rowan tree has long been revered in Russia. They believed that it protects family happiness and protects them from evil spirits. Among other things, the mountain ash is very elegant, beautiful, and if we weave it in beads, it will be a beautiful and bright decoration for the house. Below is a diagram of plaiting of rowan from beads with their own hands.

This is a scheme for weaving rowan bunches, and we can weave the leaves for it with needle-weaving technique( 1 figure), with the help of loop twisting( 2 figures).

. We will tell you about the simplest way of making rowan beads for beginners.

Master class for weaving a rowan tree

In autumn, the cluster of mountain ash grows in color and turns bright red. They look at them every now and then, they admire them. Therefore, we have an autumn rowan bead on the agenda: the master class is lower.

As a result, we'll get a tree in the pot:

If you want to make the ashberry even more autumn, you can add yellow beads to green.

Materials:

• Beads # 11( green, brown);
• Wire 0,4 mm - about 30 meters;
• Wire thicker - 4 pieces of 25 cm;
• Beads - 150 pieces( red);
• Alabaster or gypsum;
• Pot;
• Floral tape;
• Adhesive PVA;
• Threads.

Rowan Weaving:

And now a step-by-step instruction on how to weave a rowan from beads.

1 step. Leaves and branches

We cut 10 pieces of thin wire, about 40 cm long each. Then we make twigs with a weaving weave, and for this we string 7 beads on the middle of the wire, fold them in half and twist them. Then string 7 beads into one and the ends of the wire and twist again. Every 7 beads are a leaf. We need to twist 7 of these leaves.

Cut 20 pieces of thin wire, about 45 cm each. Spade a twig of 9 leaves.

We cut 20 pieces of wire, about 50 cm each. A spade of twigs from 11 leaves.

In total we have prepared 50 branches. If desired, we can weave more.

2 step. Berry clusters

We cut 220 pieces of fine wire, about 35 cm. And begin to knit the beads on one of the tips of the wire according to the following scheme: brown beads - 5 pieces, bead-1 piece, bead-1 pc. The second tip of the wire is passed through the bead and 5 beads. Loose, short tip should be at least 7 cm, and on the long tip again string the beads and beads, as in the previous time. We have to do this procedure 5 times. It is important that the berries are closely adhered to each other, and the free ends of the wire are twisted

3 step. Collect the tree

The thickest wire is screwed on top of the smallest twig of 5 leaves and 1 cluster, a little lower, a short distance from each other - 2 twigs of 9 leaves, after them berries and 2 branches with 11 leaves. In total, these branches need to collect 4 pieces.

In the same way, but without the use of a thick wire, you need to collect 6 branches of mountain ash. Total: 10 branches. Of these, you need to take 2 branches, in which thick wire is woven, and fasten to them 2 branches without a thick wire. As a result, we will get three-fold branched branches, rowan branches.

Then take 2 other branches in which a thick wire is woven, and attach them to 1 branch without a thick wire - we get on a branch with a branch into two parts.

The resulting branches need to be wrapped tightly with threads so that the wire can not be seen and glued with PVA

glue. Next, you need to take 2 branches with three branches and twist them together, and tighten the branches with 2 branches below. As a result, we get the trunk of mountain ash, which we need to wrap with floral tape, the tips of the wire spread out like roots. It is necessary once again to wind the trunk with threads in the color of the bark of the tree, or make a solution of PVA and alabaster glue - 1: 1, coat the trunk and paint it in the desired color, after drying.

4 step. We decorate the pot and "plant" the tree

The tree is installed in a pot and is filled with gypsum. When the gypsum dries a little, but not until the end. On it you can pour green, yellow and slightly red beads imitating the grass with fallen leaves and berries.

That's it, our ashberry is ready!

Look like autumn ashberry can also be different, for example, as in the photo:

Winter ashberry under snow

In addition to the autumn tree, winter mountain ash with beads under the snow is very popular among the skilled workers.

For her, the leaves do not weave, and the berries are weaved in large numbers, in a special way:

We also suggest that you familiarize yourself with the video, which once again describes in detail the technology of making rowan from beads.

So, we showed you one of the few ways of weaving a rowan from beads, from which you can weave other trees: sakura, lilac, wisteria. A little patience - and you can surround yourself with a beaded forest.
