Making original jewelry is an exciting experience. And if the little thing you created is also called to become an amulet that brings happiness and luck, then this is doubly pleasant. These are considered Shambhala. With your own hands you can weave a bracelet, beads or earrings. This is quite simple, and the result will delight you.
Hand and foot decoration
For a simple, single bracelet, the following materials will be required:
- waxed cord ;
- beads (nine pieces);
- scissors;
- glue (“Moment” or PVA).
The thread, which will serve as the basis for future jewelry, must be fixed on a flat surface. It can serve as a board with two studs driven into it. A piece of thick cardboard is also suitable. The ends of the cord in this case will be held on it thanks to tape or clerical clothespins. Previously, the beads should be put on the thread in the desired sequence. Then weaving begins, based on a square macrame knot.
So almost all Shambhala are created with their own hands. The work uses various decorative elements and weaving with cords. There are also such original solutions as the use of rings, beads of an unusual shape - butterflies, skulls, flowers. It all depends on the taste and imagination of the craftswoman.
Two working threads braid a decorative element. One is passed under the base, and lies on top of the second, and that, in turn, is introduced into the formed loop. Then you need to carefully pull both threads in different directions. When making shambhala with your own hands, it is necessary to ensure that the nodes are everywhere tightened equally. Now you need to create a clasp. When the
bracelet is woven, work must be freed from the holders. Connect the main thread in a circle and braid it with working cords. Then tie knots and trim the excess. String the beads on the remaining ends of the thread. Wonderful little thing Shambhala, created with his own hands, is almost ready. The cord can be treated with glue or burned with a lighter so that the tips do not loosen. There are many ways to create such wonderful jewelry.
Bracelets are made double, triple, depending on how many rows with beads are braided in one product. They are worn on the arm or leg.
Decorate the neck
By similar principles, do-it- yourself shambhala beads are made. They will also require a waxed cord and various decorative elements. If you want to create an original gift for a girlfriend or relative, then, choosing beads, you can be guided by her horoscope. In this case, the stones should be selected corresponding to the sign. The material will suit the most diverse: wood, leather, Swarovski crystals.
Decorative elements can be combined in any color scheme, the main thing is that they are your favorite colors.
How good the ears are now!
Shambhala earrings will look even more elegant. With your own hands you can create a real gentle miracle. In the beads you need to pass the pin-cloves, with the help of round-nose pliers, bend their part that has come out. Then put them on the shvenzy, once again press the resulting hook with the tool - and the decoration is ready. The design uses a variety of materials. Earrings can be woven according to the same principle as bracelets with beads. Then, for their manufacture, two earrings, three decorative elements and a waxed cord will be required.
