Schemes of snowflakes from beads are quite simple. The essence of the craft is that a circle made of wire and beads strung on it is additionally attached to several circles or elements. Shall we try? We offer an uncomplicated master class on making snowflakes from beads for beginners.
The scheme of weaving snowflakes from beads
- On the meter section of a thin wire, you should string 6 beads # 11. We connect the ends of the wire, wrapping them about each other. Then through two beads we pass one end of the wire, on it we string a large bead, which will be the core of the snowflake.
- We add one bead to the same end of the wire, and we pass the needle with the wire through the neighboring bead. Thus, alternating beads through one, we finish the circle. Then add one bead, and again we repeat one more circle. You can insert beads of a different color or size to make the snowflake look more original.
- Having reached the end of the last lap (there can be as many as you wish), pass through the last bead of the previous circle a wire. At its end, put on 3 beads of the same color and the other three. Then pass the needle through the fourth bead (from the end). You will get peaks of snowflakes. In the same way, make five more peaks. When the snowflake is ready, fix the ends of the wire. We recommend that you go through the last circle twice with a wire, so that the craft has acquired additional rigidity.
