Violets of beads: scheme of weaving and photo

Beading is an art that is accessible to everyone. Any needlewoman will easily perform a wonderful bouquet of violets in just a few hours, mastering two simple techniques - a frame with a central row and continuous looping loops.

Key tools and materials

Flowers made from beads, made by own hands, always pleases the eye - they look so alive that they want to sniff and touch. Each needlewoman can make such a miracle. A violet bead for beginners does not seem like a complicated product. You need to use the minimum set of tools and materials that can be purchased at any store for needlework:

1. Beads of several types (matte, shiny, small, large). The minimum number of colors: green, yellow and any other at your discretion (red, blue, pink, purple).

2. Wire of different thickness. To string beads, its diameter should be no more than 0.2 mm, and for the legs that will give the product stability, the diameter of the wire can be several times larger.

3. Scissors or wire cutters.

4. Floral ribbon or silk thread of green color for wrapping the legs of flowers.

5. Metal or glass balls, clay or clay, which are laid on the bottom of the pot.

6. If you are thinking about how to make a violet from the beads, which will be an exact copy of a living flower, purchase a small vase and powder the finished product with moss or earth from above.

Technique "parallel weaving"

The famous keychain "crocodile" is just the product from which needlewomen usually begin to learn the art of beading, but few realize that by the same principle you can make luxurious violets from beads. The scheme of weaving is extremely simple and does not require special skills.

By this principle, you can make petals and flowers. First, you need to thread three beads and pass the wire so that one bead is left below, and the other two are on top. Continue to work in the same spirit, each time increasing the number of beads in a row. The petal should take the shape of an inverted isosceles triangle. The final row is made from beads of a different color for contrast, and on the loose ends of the wire continue to string a few more beads and stretch them to one bead that was laid at the base.

Technique "frame with a central series"

For the manufacture of large bouquets of beads, craftsmen came up with a method by which an artificial article is sometimes difficult to distinguish from real flowers. The frame with the central row (KTSR) allows you to bend the finished petal as you like - it all depends on the strength of the wire, from which any shape can be purchased both roses and smaller flowers - violets from beads. The scheme of weaving is not as simple as it seems at first glance, but, having mastered it, you will perform even the most unusual products.

1. A wire of the necessary length is cut off, a small loop is made at one end; On the free end, several beads are threaded, which will constitute the beginning of the frame of the central row.
2. Take the workpiece in hand so that the loop is from the bottom. At the top end, tie the knot, and on the free end string the beads, which will then braid the central row.
3. Pull the wire with the beads up, tighten the loop. Try not to let the petals be pointed.
4. After completing the previous step, pull the wire with the beads down. Perform several loops, as required by the product.

Green leaves

Thanks to KCR, you can make anything: plants, butterflies, dragonflies and much more. It all depends on the number of beads in the center row and the looping loops. Violet leaf is made with pointed ends - to achieve this effect, the wire must be held at an angle of 45 degrees. This is indicated in the second figure. On the front side, the wire will not be visible, and the product will look alive. For the production of large petals, the central row is made of a large number of beads, with the hanging loops there should be little. By the same principle, you can make not only petals, but also violets from beads, the scheme of which can be performed both in the NOP and in the KCR.

The technique of "continuous looping loops"

Any flower can be made in several ways, and beginners in beadwork should learn the simplest of them. The technique of continuous looping loops (NOP) is the simplest, but with the help of it you can make real masterpieces. By the way, it is also used for making violets from beads: the weaving scheme allows you to make a magnificent bouquet that will look like alive. On a strong wire you need to string a few beads, depending on the size of the product, and twist at the base to get a vicious circle. Similarly, all other loops should be performed, increasing their size from row to row.

To make a composition, you will need a basic knowledge of the techniques of KCR and NOP. For a bouquet of nine violets you will need about twenty meters of wire and at least four colors of beads: green, yellow, two shades of blue, pink or purple.

Step 1. To make the finished product look like a living flower, you need to make buds. Put 6 green beads on the wire, fasten them at the base. Such loops should be 5 pieces - this is the sepals.

Step 2. Similarly, the bud itself is made from beads of blue, violet or pink color, depending on the type of violet. The base is put over green loops and twisted.

Step 3. The yellow middle is performed according to the same principle.

Step 4. The flower of a violet consists of ten petals, made in the technique of NOP. The first row is made of seven beads, the second - from fifteen, the third - from twenty. As soon as the flower is ready, insert a yellow center in the center - so your first violet from beads will be completely ready. A step-by-step photo demonstrates an excellent combination of light and dark colors, so if you want, you can do the same.

Step 5. Green petals are performed in the KCR technique: a frame of five beads is wound around several loops.

Step 6. Make the remaining violet flowers and buds. On a small pot they should be no more than nine pieces.

Step 7. For stability, twist all the legs of the flowers: the bouquet will consist of one large stable foot.

Step 8. But the bottom of the pot can put metal or glass balls, floristic clay or plasticine. Carefully stick a bouquet and give the violets a shape.

Useful advice for needlewomen

Get a few shades of beads of the same color to make the flower look like alive.

Use beads of different types: matte, shiny, translucent - so the product looks more impressive.

Try to choose a wire that matches the color of the beads: make the legs of the flowers only from the green wire, the petals - from the blue, red or copper - depending on what color the violets of beads will be.

The scheme of weaving is something that inexperienced needlewomen need to follow, otherwise the product can turn out to be crooked.

Buy only quality beads, mostly of Czech origin, because the transparent beads, painted inside or out, will soon fade, and the product will lose its original appearance.

Wipe dust from flowers with a small brush at least once every three months.

For operational stringing, when making large items, use a spinning wheel for beads (spinning machine). If you have incredibly beautiful violets of beads, photograph them with fresh flowers and be surprised at how similar they are.

The leg of flowers is always wrapped in floral tape or silk thread, as much as possible disguising the wire under it.

How to make a violet from the beads?

If you really liked the flower, but you did not find the step by step instruction of manufacturing, you will easily come up with a scheme. Products with large petals are made mainly on the technique of KTSR, small - on the NOP. In your mind, disassemble the flower you like, and count how many leaflets, petals, buds, legs, midpoints there are in it. Choose several shades and evenly distribute them on the surface of the product. And now imagine how the flower will shimmer in the sun's rays, embark on creativity and wait for great results!
