Beading: Trees by own hands - a step-by-step master weaving class of willow and other trees.

. The trees and flowers, created with the technique of beadwork, look like real ones.

They perfectly harmonize with any interior, be it an office or an apartment. I can not believe that such a small bead is created such beauty! Anyone can learn this art. You can start with small bouquets and small trees. In this article, a master class on making a bead tree with explanations and a photo to them is considered in detail.

Tools for working

Before starting work it is necessary to prepare tools and materials that may be needed when creating bead trees, namely:

• Beads of different colors and sizes;
• Wire diameter, which corresponds to the size of beads;
• Wire cutters;
• Pliers;
• Floral tape or yarn for the formation and decoration of a tree pillar;
• Pot or other container in which the tree will be installed;
• Alabaster, gypsum, sand, earth and other material for fastening the tree in the pot;
• Pebbles, pebbles, gouache for decorating the surface of the base.

Beginners tips

Before mastering a master class beadworking trees for beginners, you need to pay attention to some features of working with wire and beads.

Replacement of

wire Each needlewoman when weaving bead products collides with the moment when the working wire ends and the weaving still needs to be continued. How can one imperceptibly replace an old wire with a new one? A new piece of wire must be passed through the last tied string of beads. Then the next row runs along with both wires. Now the old wires can be trimmed neatly.

Securing the wire

When the work is finished, it is necessary to hide the end of the wire correctly. To do this, the edges of the wire are passed through several adjacent beads, and cut off close to its hole. In order for this process to happen easily, for the last row it is desirable to select beads with a wide hole so that the wire can pass through it several times. Usually in the process of beading, the trees of the scheme indicate how to finish the work, especially the schemes for beginners.

General questions

To prevent the end of the wire from being pricked, cut it as short as possible. If the wire does not pass well into the bead, do not stretch it with force. So you can damage the bead - it can crack. It is necessary to make sure that the wide opening of the bead is sufficient for this type of wire.

How to create a bead tree

In this section, you will see a detailed tree of beads on the example of a willow. For this you will need:

• Fine beads of green color;
• Wire for main weaving( 0,2mm);
• Thick wire for branches and tree trunk( about 2mm);
• Yarn or floristic tape of dark brown color for the winding of branches and a column of wood;
• Pot;
• Filler( gypsum, earth, sand, etc.)

First you need to weave the leaves of the tree. To do this, cut off 70 cm of wire and dial 14 beads. Next, the loop is made and turns into 5-6 turns. Thus, a leaf is obtained. Now these leaves need to weave 14 pieces.

So this is the branch with the leaves. The more such twigs are woven, the more splendid the willow will eventually emerge. In this case, 48 pieces are woven.

The next step is to assemble the tree. The trunks are formed from 4 branches.

The result is 12 such trunks. Now they are strengthened, having attached it to a thick wire, and with the help of a thread of brown color each trunk is decorated.

More large trunks are now being formed, screwing three branches together.

Collecting all the branches in one trunk, you get a tree.

It must also be wrapped with a thread or ribbon for decoration.

the pile tree is placed in a pot with the help of plasticine. Top beads are sprinkled to close the clay.
