Master classes for creating trees from beads
Yin-yang tree
A beaded tree of the Yin-Yang type is an interesting homemade product that you are not ashamed to put on your desktop.
They can even be sold, but they are simply woven:
- You will need black and white beads, a string and a strong wire.
- Cut off half a meter of wire. On 1 edge we collect 9 beads and fold into a loop.
- 6 more such loops are made on this wire.
- The workpiece is bent along the central loop and twist the branch. We need 30 branches.
- We connect 3 branches in 10 larger ones.
- The same actions are repeated with beads of a different color.
- We collect 2 trees from the blanks.
- We twist it together and put it on a prepared stand or in a pot.
Here we have the first beaded tree with our own hands.
Wood with stones
Beaded products can and even should be combined with other jewelry. In this case, these are decorative stones.
Weaving patterns look like this:
- Preparing a scattering of decorative stones. You can buy it at any craft store.
- We collect 15 pebbles on the wire, fold and twist the branch.
- We make several branches as desired.
- Now we make the branches larger, and collect the small ones together and connect them.
- We collect several large branches and make a crown.
- We hang small branches on it.
- We install the tree on a stand.
This bead weaving is suitable for beginners. It takes a minimum of time, but allows you to get used to the material.
Money Tree
The beaded money tree is probably the most common craft for beginners. It is simple and beautiful, it really resembles a houseplant.
We need perseverance, fortitude and simple instructions:
- You will need green beads, but in different shades. It is desirable that the size is the same.
- We collect 12 beads on the wire and form a loop. We make 7 more of these and twist the branch. We need about 60 stitches.
- You can add coins for 20 branches. We take a small change, drill a hole near the end and thread a ring. You can also solder it.
- Now we collect the tree. We collect separate branches from 4 blanks, on 1 of which you need to hang a coin.
- In total, 15 branches are obtained, which must be connected in 5 bundles.
- We combine them into one solid tree and paint the trunk.
Autumn and snowy trees
These are also craft beads for beginners, but of a higher class. The product is suitable for the New Year, as a decoration for a Christmas tree or on a New Year's table.
By the way, a winter tree made of beads easily turns into an autumn tree. It is enough to change the white beads to orange and thin them out with yellow. You can find all beadwork patterns in the video above.
Sakura
What could be more beautiful than Japanese sakura cherry? And it can also be woven with beads! Moreover, not so many materials are needed for manufacturing.
You need beaded wire and the beads themselves. You can make it in one color, but then the tree will turn out to be unsightly, dull and boring. It would be more correct to buy several shades of pink to get small overflows that will make the craft more voluminous.
You can watch a video on how to weave from beads step by step for beginners below.
Birch tree
It is very simple to make a birch from beads. The wood looks simple and all you need is wire and green beads. Here, the tint overflows are not so important, the main thing is the contrast of the leaves and the white trunk.
But beading patterns include many small details, so patience and perseverance are required for weaving!
Cherry and apple tree with fruits
These trees are woven in the same way. The only difference is in the fruits. You will need green beads for foliage and red beads for fruits. The difference is that the apples must be larger.
How to make a tree from beads can be seen in the video. All diagrams and step-by-step instructions are also provided there.
Spruce
Perhaps the most difficult craft in this collection. It is necessary to be very patient here, since needle technology is very laborious. But, with the proper efforts, the spruce will turn out to be very naturalistic.
You will need a little: thread and beads. Choose a deep green, malachite, or coniferous. It should shine brightly. Number 11 is best suited to make the branches heap, but smooth. Shading overflows are also not important here.
You can watch the video master class on making with all the details below.
Pine
Although both trees are conifers, pine is very different from spruce in manufacturing. You will also need green beads of the same color, but the trunk and branches of the tree are not so filled. It is necessary that their accuracy was lower.
Beaded pine is made easier than spruce, and the whole process can be seen in the video below.
Willow
Beaded willow is a very laborious craft, as it consists of hundreds of small parts that must be done by hand. But with due care, you will get an incredible decoration for the interior that can be placed on your desktop.
Color alternation is used here, so in addition to green beads, we also need orange or yellow.
Oak
The most complex beaded tree. Here you need to have good spatial thinking to make the oak volumetric. You will need not only beads of different colors, but also think over the location of the branches.
For high detail it is better to use small beads. So the product can even be donated or sold.
Palm
Let's add some exoticism to the selection. In fact, this is the simplest tree that can be made from beads in principle. The main part is the trunk, and the leaves of the palm are wide and voluminous. It is with her that it is better to start a beginner.
Moreover, we only need green beads, wire and half an hour of free time!
