Chamomile with beads

Camomiles are one of the most popular colors in beading. The first reason is the beauty and modesty of this wonderful summer flower, the second is the simplicity of its weaving. Indeed, weave a flower from beads is not at all difficult, it is even a child, and the process of weaving will certainly be interesting and fascinating.

Weaving chamomile from beads

Before we begin to weave, we will check whether we have everything necessary for this:

• small beads of green, white and yellow color, one important condition - the beads should be the same size, for weaving a small chamomile it will be enough to have one sachet of each color;
• wire for beadwork, it must be thin and flexible;
• thread floss or sewing thread green.

When everything is ready, we'll do chamomile weaving.

How to weave a daisy from beads?

1. We'll start the work with weaving chamomile petals. Cut a piece of wire 25 cm long and put on it 15 white beads. Now bend the wire in half in such a way that on one of the equal halves were beads, the second remained free. Now take the second tail of the wire and let it pass through the beads, starting from the second and last.
2. Now on both ends of the wire we put on 17 white beads, bend them down, and each edge of the wire is passed through the first lower bead. We are guided by the drawing of how to do it correctly.
3. We tighten the wire tightly so that three beads are located in the same plane, but it's important not to overdo it, otherwise we'll get a bud instead of a leaf. Then again we work with both ends of the wire at the same time - we sew on them now 19 beads, after which the ends are passed through the last beads of the tapes made earlier.
4. Again tighten the wire firmly, placing all the rows in one plane, twisting the edges and get the first ready petal of chamomile from beads.
5. Now we will make several more of the same petals, their number depends on how much lush daisy you want to make. The optimum number of petals for a flower is from six to eight.
6. Now we will be engaged in the core of chamomile from beads. To do this, we should familiarize ourselves with the technique of French beading. So, let's take the yellow beads and the wire cut length of 30 centimeters.
7. On the wire cut we will form a working loop. Now we put three yellow beads on the wire and, leaving a long working end, we twist the second working loop.
8. On the free long working end we will put on five beads, we will arrange a new beaded series close to the previous one and we will not tightly twist the wire.
9. Again we string five beads on the working end and have just as tight, only on the other hand, we fix the position of the new beaded row.
10. Next we continue to weave in the same way, in the next two pairs of rows we string 8 beads onto the wire and then execute two pairs of 10 beads, thereby forming a circular three-dimensional figure.
11. Now, under the finished core, we twist the remaining ends of the wire.
12. We will make a cup for chamomile from a green bead. Cut a piece of wire 20 cm long and put as many beads on it as it fits from the beginning to its end. Hold the beads, twist in a circle the same loop length of about 1.5 centimeters. As a result, we get 5-6 loops, not more. The ends of the wire are closed in a circle and tightly twisted.
13. When all the elements of the flower's head are ready, we can start assembling it. First of all, we consistently twist all the produced petals, the workpiece is closed in a circle.
14. In the hole formed in the center of the petals, we pass the ends of the wire of the daisy core and screw it to the stem, formed from the tails of the petals. Bottom on the stem we put on a green calyx and also tightly fix. We make sure that the parts are tightly fastened to each other and tight enough without creating unnecessary holes. Here we have such a crown.
15. From the bottom our head will look like this.
16. Now we'll weave the leaves of chamomile from the green beads. To do this, take the wire length of 45 centimeters and put on it 8 beads. One of the ends of the wire will unfold and let's go back through all the beads, except the first. We look at the picture, what should happen.
17. At one end of the wire we type four beads and unfold it in the same way as in the previous paragraph.
18. The same is done with the second end of the wire.
19. Now we work with both ends at the same time. Add them together and type 4 beads.
20. Next, we make branches in leaves, repeating the last four points with each end. We choose the size to your liking, but you should take into account that too fluffy foliage will not be stable because of its weight. We try to balance the size of the top of the flower with the size of leaves.
21. Now finish assembling the chamomile from the beads. First, tightly fasten the leaves to the chamomile stalk, carefully thought out the location of their location, then add a few times the thread of the mulina and tightly wrap it with the stem of the flower.
22. Chamomile weaving from beads is ready. It remains to come up with her support, put in a wicker of beads vase, or put in a pot of soil. Also this cute flower can become an exclusive brooch or an unusual charm.
