Every person has different kinds of animals and, despite the fact that most do not like spiders or are afraid of them, there are people who like these creatures. For them, it will be very important to make a spider of beads for a gift, so in this article we'll look at how it can be done.

Since most people do not know the basics of beadwork, it is better to learn how to weave a spider without using complicated patterns of weaving from beads.

Master Class: Spider bead for beginners

To make 1 spider you will need:

• thin wire for beadwork;
• beads: 26 pieces - 8 sizes, 50 pieces - 11 sizes, 24 - long glass beads, 1 large bead for the abdomen.
• tools: nippers, pliers.

How to make a spider of beads:

1. Cut off the coil of wire 4 pieces of the same length about 30 cm (for the legs). With the help of flat-nose pliers, the cut places are leveled so that it is easier to pass the beads.
2. Gently fold the prepared piece of wire in half, but do not squeeze. We put on two beads of 8 sizes and move them to the middle. Since it will be the eyes of a spider, you should take a color bead that will be different from the body. We pass one end of the wire through both beads. Tighten so that the wire fits tightly to the beads. At us it has turned out, that from two beads go in the different parties two ends.
3. We begin to make the legs of the spider (there are 6 of them). For each of them it is necessary to take: 6 beads of 11 sizes, 2 beads - 8 and 3 pieces of glass beads. We type on one end of them in this order, as shown in the photo, and pull them to fixed in the middle.
4. We take the remaining end of the wire and, passing the last bead (in the photo it is yellow), we pass it back through all the strung elements to the "eyes". For convenience, it is necessary to pass gradually, and not through all at once, so as not to tear the wire. Good pull. The first foot of the spider is ready.
5. Take the second end and perform steps 3 and 4. Here and the second foot is ready.
6. For the body of a spider, first take 2 beads of 8 size (recall, the color should be different from the color of the eyes). We put them on one end of the wire, and then - the other end through them stretch in the opposite direction. Pull them up so that they are near the eyes.
7. Repeating steps 3 and 4, we make the third and fourth legs.
8. We take the following beads for the body and repeat paragraph 7 and 8 two times
9. To complete the body of the spider, take 1 bead 8 size and pass the opposite ends of the wire in opposite directions. We take the biggest bead (for a pussy) and pass both ends to it at once.
10. We take another bead 8 sizes, we pass from both sides both ends (in opposite sides). Cut off the extra wire, leaving a little to twist and hide the ends between the small bead and the big one.
11. The legs of the spider bend slightly in the joints so that it can stand.
