Strawberries from beads: a master class

Before you weave strawberries from beads, you need to prepare the following materials:

Some use a floral tape to wrap the stems. Now consider the detailed instructions how to make strawberries from beads.

  1. The scheme of weaving strawberries from beads is simple, the technique is called "parallel weaving". The berry consists of five parts. The photo shows the stages of the formation of the first "petal".
  2. Then we start gradually adding the second one. Thus, the first four parts of the berry are plaid.
  3. Now take a small paper ball of red color. Putting it inside, we will give the berries a volume and make its appearance more natural.
  4. We put it inside and begin to weave the last petal. In this case, you can type a number of beads, not in quantity, but as necessary to achieve a beautiful shape.
  5. The first stage of the master class for weaving strawberries from beads is completed and the berry is ready.
  6. Now consider the scheme of weaving leaflets from beads for strawberries. Here everything is simple. String the first bead and make a loop. Then we collect the same amount on each end of the wire and connect them with the help of the last bead.
  7. Thus, we form five pieces of a leaflet.
  8. Two pieces of berry strawberries from the bead are ready.
  9. Now we wove the inflorescence. To work, you need to prepare beads of three colors: white, yellow and green.
  10. For the flower we use the "French weaving" technique. The photo shows the process of making petals. We form the middle of the yellow beads.
  11. Sepals we will weave from the green beads. The method of production is the same as in the case of weaving a leaf, just string a smaller amount of beads.
  12. This is what our inflorescence looks like.
  13. The stem leaves consist of three parts. The first and last slytem equally, and the middle will do a little higher. To make this part of the bush, we use familiar French technique.
  14. Strawberry made from beads is ready! Now, if you want, you can decorate the wire with floral tape.

From beads you can weave a lot of other crafts: flowers, trees and ornaments.
