How to make a heart of beads?

"Heart" subjects have always been and will be relevant. And not only on the day of marriage or St. Valentine . A heart-shaped beadwork will always be a welcome gift for both the girl and the guy. And if the heart is also functional (keychain, cell phone, etc.), then even more!

We offer you a master class that will tell you how to make a heart-bead tree that can become an ornament of any interior.

We will need:

  1. The scheme of weaving hearts from beads is simple, and begins with the manufacture of twigs of a tree. To do this, we cut five pigeon beads on a forty-centimeter cut of 0.3 mm wire, twisting a loop. Stepping back 2-3 mm, we make the same loop. In total, we need to twist 9 loops. Then weave the bending in the center, leaving one loop-top, and form a twig. We need about seven of them. After that, from twigs, twist a dense branch, twisting the ends of small twigs around the wire-barrel.
  2. With the help of a blue string we process the trunk, tightly winding it along a spiral. The shape of the branches, indicated by the thread, can be any - for your taste! In the end, the tree should be given the desired shape.
  3. You can start creating a second tree. Now for weaving five branches, which will consist of nine leaves, we take white beads. Technology remains the same. When the tree is ready, we wrap its main trunk and a few twigs with white threads of a mulina. It's time to connect both our trees, beautifully and neatly twisting their trunks. This tree should be placed in a decorative vase, in which gypsum is mixed with water. While the foundation does not dry up, the tree needs props. With this role books will be excellent. When the gypsum hardens, give the tree a heart shape. You can decorate the craft with flowers, ribbons, rhinestones and so on.
  4. If you have long mastered the technique of beading and are not interested in advice for beginners, then try to weave a three-dimensional heart from beads, as shown in the figures.

Weaving from beads is a hobby that will help your imagination to unfold. Over time, crafts will become more complex and beautiful. Your friends will always be happy to wait for a new exclusive gift.
