Beads are a material from which many different products can be made. These include: embroidery, knitting, a variety of crafts and much more. And skilled needlewomen can create various jewelry from beads with their own hands. These include bracelets, necklaces, beads, earrings and even rings. In order for everything to work out correctly and beautifully, you need to know for sure:
1. What kind of decoration you want to make.
2. Weaving pattern, according to which you are going to weave it.
3. Determine the color scheme of the beads.
4. Its size.
5. Its invoice (form).
6. The size of the jewelry (if it is a necklace, then the length and width).
Do-it-yourself woven bead necklace always looks original and unusual. There are many manufacturing options, and each of them is good and beautiful in its own way. But you need to know exactly which decoration and for whom it will be created. Depending on this, the pattern, size and weaving technique are selected. Consider how a necklace is made from beads with your own hands in two colors. This will require:
- The beads are medium white and black.
- Small beads.
- The fishing line is colorless (or in tone with the beads).
- Clasp.
Working process:
1. Cut 2 fishing lines: one is longer and the other is 10-15 cm shorter (according to the required length of the necklace).
2. On one side attach the clasp to the fishing line.
3. On the other hand, alternating colors, string the beads on a long fishing line.
4. Then string small beads, alternating colors, on a short fishing line.
5. Fasten the second edge to the clasp.
In such a simple way, you can make a necklace with your own hands from beads , which will take only 30-40 minutes, even for a person who has never been weaving. You can also buy beads in the form of pearls and alternate it with material of the same texture, but transparent color. Then this necklace will be universal, and it will be possible to wear it with any outfits for any events. Beads should be of high quality. If you buy cheap Chinese material, it will quickly burn out in the sun, when it comes into contact with water, paint will be washed off, and your necklace can be discarded calmly in a few days. Especially if you wear it in the summer, when the sun is very baking. To avoid such a sad end for your necklace, it is best to buy Czech beads, as it is moisture resistant and does not burn out so quickly in the sun.
You can also make hair clips from beads with your own hands. For this we need:
- Wire (about 0.5 cm in size).
- Small beads of 2 colors.
- The easiest base for a hairpin.
Working process
1. Cut the wire (depending on what size the craft will be).
2. String the beads on the wire so that a petal is obtained. The number of such petals depends on the size of the hairpin and on your imagination.
3. Twist all the petals in such a sequence as to make a flower. We make them a few pieces.
4. We collect in one bouquet (any shape to choose from).
5. Fasten them to the hairpin.
Just like that, you can make many different jewelry for yourself or as a gift to friends or relatives. Do-it-yourself woven bead necklace or unusual hairpin decor will always be relevant.
