Orange tree from beads

If you are interested in how to make an orange tree from beads, and are looking for a detailed microscope, then you know that it is this tree that can give the owner incredible and limitless luck. It's not for nothing that the words "gold" and "orange" sound alike in Chinese. So, it's time to start creating an orange tree, using a simple technique of beading.

We will need:

  1. The scheme of weaving of orange tree beads is simple. First, an 80-centimeter cut of 0.3 mm of wire should be strung bead, and then 3 beads. After that, strung the long end of 7 beads, twist them in a loop. There are three such loops. Loose the free end of the wire around the worker, and through the centimeter again twist the 3 loops.
  2. Now it is necessary to bend the wire 3 centimeters in the opposite direction. However, the bead-orange will not be: from 7 beads plait one leaf, then 2 more, and 2 more, that is, we get a twig of five leaves.
  3. We bend to each side for 1 centimeter, and tat along the leaf on each side. Now we have one orange branch. Similarly, we twine two more branches, but with leaves with 9 loops. We fasten them to the main branch, we get a triple lush branch. We will need them two more.
  4. It's time to form a tree. For this, on 1 mm a wire in the form of a pyramid is wound 3 branches. Twist 5 of these branches. Now fasten all the branches, forming the main trunk. To make it more durable, you can wrap it with a paint tape.
  5. After the work on the creation of the orange tree is completed, it is necessary to prepare a form-support for it. Suitable for this purpose and an ordinary jar of cream. It should be covered with food film and pour a mixture of alabaster and water in equal proportions. This mixture dries up quickly enough, enough for 10 minutes. But during this time the tree needs support, books will suit. Did the alabaster solidify completely? It's time to remove the tree from the mold, gently pulling the food film.
  6. We proceed to the design of the trunk. A mixture of equal parts of water, alabaster and PVA glue is applied to the barrel, and then decorate it using acrylic paints. The basis of alabaster can be painted in green. And the orange tree made of beads, made by own hands, is ready!
