So, a lilac of beads from a bead: the master class with step-by-step instructions to you in it will help.

You can weave a whole bush of lilac, or a bouquet, or a small twig at your discretion.

There are several options for how to make a lilac of beads with your own hands.

Let's consider one of the ways in more detail.

Materials required for weaving lilac

• Beads( pink or lilac and green);
• Bugle( in tone to pink or lilac beads);
• Wire( ideally, in the tone of the flower);
• Floristic Lena( green);
• Threads( mulina);
• Scissors and cutters;
• Vase;
• Alabaster.

Step-by-step instructions for weaving the lilac

1) For a wire about 50 cm long, we put on 5 beads of pink color and make a loop( about 10 cm from the edge):

On the same wire, make three more loops of 5 beads:

Wire the beads together, andthe first flower is ready:

2) In exactly the same way, on the same wire, about 8 more flowers are braided.

The woven full billet of 9 flowers is fastened with a thick wire. It is wrapped up with a green floristic ribbon

So, the first inflorescence is ready.

Such inflorescences should be weaved in an amount of 30 pieces

3) The next stage is the assembly of the lilac branch. It is necessary to staple in succession all the inflorescences of

4) Then we begin to weave the leaves of the lilac. Here we will use the circular French technique. First of all, string beads on the wire( so as not to be mistaken with the number of beads and long wire, it is better to collect more beads immediately on the skein).We take another small piece of wire( auxiliary) and twist it with the main 15 times. The upper section should be about 5 cm.

On this piece of the auxiliary wire, we put on five beads, and then we braid it with the main one.

After making the first turn, immediately make the next arc.

6) As you know, the leaves of the lilac have a pointed tip, so that we get sharpened leaves. The wire needs to be twisted in a special way, as in the diagram below:

7) We need to weave 7 arcs for each of the leaves. Some leaves can be made from 5,6,8 arches. After all, each leaf on a real flower is different from the other.

8) The remaining piece of wire is cut and folded inwards. If you put the tip of the wire through the beads, it will not be visible from both sides.

9) To make the leaf stiffer on the foot, it is necessary to reel up the wire, and disguise it with threads of floss or green floral tape.

10) For the future branch of lilac, approximately 20 leaves need to be made.

11) Next, you need to form twigs from leaves and bind the leaves together in a checkerboard pattern. Disguise everything with a floral green ribbon

12) The final stage - the assembly of twigs. To twigs tightly adhere, first connect them with a thread, and then with a floral tape.

13) Take a small ceramic vase and fill it with alabaster. In which we stick our lilacs, and wait until the complete drying.

This is the composition that should be the result.
