Black and white beaded tree with your own hands. Do-it-yourself golden beaded tree

Detailed tutorials on making trees from beads

Necessary materials

So, what do we need to make trees from beads: beads of various colors and quality, sequins, beads, wire of different thicknesses, rigid rods, floral tape, gypsum for fixing the product, decorative stones, sand and more. Actually, you shouldn't be so scared. Beading is not a one-day activity, so over time you will be able to acquire everything you need.
In this article, MirSovetov will tell you what techniques you can start with so that the difficulties caused by manufacturing do not discourage your appetite for creativity. Here, two examples will be considered to give impetus to your imagination, and the manufacturing process will be shown step by step.
So, for starters, we only need beads, leaf-shaped sequins, wire. At the final stage, it will only be necessary to choose a form for planting the resulting beaded tree.

thread for beads

Making the first tree - cherry blossoms

This tree is the best educational material for those who want to learn how to weave trees and flowers from beads. It is done quite simply, and the result is impressive.
First you need to cut a lot of pieces of wire. The length of each piece is about 25cm:

Now we string 5 beads on the wire and twist them into a loop at a distance of about 5-7 cm from the end of the wire. Stepping back 1-1.2 cm, we make another same loop. And in this way we make several loops (always an odd number), leaving the free end of the wire 5-7 cm long:

We bend the wire on the central loop

Twist the ends of the wire together

One branch of the future sakura is ready. Now you need to make about 100 such branches - it is with this amount that the beaded tree will look quite magnificent.
When the branches are ready, proceed to the assembly. Twisting the branches together, it is necessary to form bundles of 10-12 branches.

Twisting the branches together, it is necessary to form bundles of 10-12 branches

Next, we collect the resulting beams near the solid base. A solid base is ideally a rigid rod - a special metal stick for obtaining beaded stems or used to make artificial flowers. In the absence of such a stick, MirSovetov advises using improvised means - you can take a wooden skewer for barbecue, you can use a pencil, in general, everything that comes to hand. By winding the resulting twigs-bundles, the very shape of the tree is formed.
To make the tree trunk look natural, two main methods are used - winding the trunk with floral tape (this is such a sticky, slightly corrugated paper in the form of a tape) and winding the trunk with threads. Silk thread will look especially impressive on the trunk.
After that, it comes to planting a bead tree. You need to choose the appropriate form, method of decoration. With the help of gypsum, the tree is fixed in shape, and then decorated with any materials you like. Gypsum can also be replaced with other materials, for example, plasticine or a specific plastic that hardens over time.
So, the result of the last "gardening" work will be as follows:

In this case, some green beads were used to make the sakura tree, which are found in greater concentration at the bases of the branches. A glass square plate was used for planting, and artificial decorative stones were used for decoration. The barrel is wrapped with brown silk thread.

Making a red branch from sequins

Here we will consider another wonderful and very easy way to make pretty trees with your own hands.
For this method, you will need sequins in the form of leaflets.
Just like in the first method, first you need to cut wires 20-25 cm long. We will create branches from these pieces.
So, we string a sequin on a wire and twist a leg about 1 cm high under it:

We string a sequin on a wire and twist a leg about 1 cm high under it

We twist the free ends of the wire together and again make the next two leaves:

We twist the free ends of the wire together and again make the next two leaves

We twist the free ends of the wire together to the end. One branch of the future tree is ready. In this work, you also need to make about 100 such branches (the number varies based on the desired splendor of the tree). To make one tree branch, you will need about 10-12 branches of the main branches:

It will take about 10-12 branches of the main branches to make one tree branch

Twisting the branches-blanks together, we get a branch of a tree:

Twisting the branches-blanks together, we get a branch of a tree

beaded orange tree

beaded orange tree

Here, orange beads play the role of oranges. A wicker basket was used for planting, and artificial decorative stones and beads - fallen oranges - were used for decoration.
A sprig-blank for an orange tree made of beads is made according to the following scheme:

Birch from beads

Birch from beads

The difficulty in making a birch is in the trunk. Ideally, you can find white floral tape. But if there are difficulties with the tape, then you can get by with a medical adhesive plaster. Next, with a black felt-tip pen, strips are applied to the trunk.

Sakura from beads

Mix pink 45 grams and green beads 15 grams (there are two shades of pink in the photos).

We cut the wire 70 cm for a small tree. We retreat from the end of 15 cm, make a loop. We string beads on the long end.

We make leaves of 4-5 beads every 0.5-0.7 cm.

We reach the loop, pour the rest of the beads into a bowl.

Fold the branch in half and twist

Fold the branch in half and twist

We straighten the leaves.

For a small tree, 5 small branches are taken in a bunch, for a more magnificent one - 8.

We make 9 such bundles.

In the example, 6 small branches were collected, only 9 large ones turned out, i.e. 54 small branches.

Then we twist 2 large ones - 3 pieces and one of the three large top branches.

Pot (casket)

You can wrap it with white floral ribbon, wire turn to turn, or floss threads.

We plant in a pot in plasticine or silicone

We decorate the ground

We paint the trunk with brown paints, in the example, ordinary, children's ones are taken. Be sure to straighten all the branches and the tree is ready! Weeping Willow tree

Weeping willow is a delicate tree with a thin, slender trunk and long, delicate branches that descend to the ground. Here is a tree I tried to make from beads.

It took about 100 gr. green beads and about 30 gr. light green color, thin wire for branches, steel wire for the trunk, florentine, floor sponge, pot, pebbles for decoration.

From light green beads we make the upper small branches, then I mixed the remaining light green with green beads and the lower, long branches were made only from green beads.

Step 1.1. We cut a thin wire into segments from which we will form branches. We string 7 beads, shifted to the middle of the wire (Photo 1).

Step 1.2. Then twist several times (Photo 2).

Step 1.3. Now we make such a leaflet on one side, then on the other and twist the wire again (Photo 3).

Step 1.4. Then twist a few times
(Photo 4).

Step 1.5. Thus, we make the required number of leaves on the branch (Photo 5).


Step 1.6. So, we do everything: 14 branches of light green color, 17 leaves of 7 beads,
24 green branches with 17 leaves of 7 beads, 24 green branches with 25 leaves of 7 beads, 17 green branches with 33 leaves of 7 beads. It turned out such a bunch of branches (Photo 6).

Now we collect branches from 4-5 long branches, 5-6 medium, 3-4 small branches, screwing them onto thick wire rods. We wrap the branch with florentine, pulling it tightly. (Photo 7) I got 5 such branches.

Now we cut off several pieces of thick wire and form the trunk and roots (Photo 8).

The willow has a very even and smooth trunk, so we wrap all the irregularities of the wire with rags cut into thin strips (Photo 9).

We wrap the trunk with floral tape (Photo 10).

Now we strengthen the tree into a floor sponge (Photo 11).

We put the tree in a pot, cover it with pebbles, fix everything with glue.

We straighten the branches, bending them in the right directions. Our tree is ready (Photo 12).

Sakura

From five beads we make a loop, twist, then we make another loop around, immediately giving it the shape of a leaf. I made 170 such branches-blanks of 3 leaves on each.
Then we twist them 2 branches together. And from them we are already making blanks for the main branches - we collect 3-4-5 such branches in bunches. Wrap with floral tape or thread.
From such bundles we make the main branches, wrapping them with floral tape or masking tape on a thick wire.

Fig. 5 - on it we have the main trunk, and the formed crown, we thicken the branch with a winding to the thickness we need, we make a bend. And we wind the rest of the branches. I have 4 sides.

We give the trunk and branches the intended look, since after plastering the trunk with gypsum, you don’t need to touch the tree until it dries completely, otherwise severe cracks will appear.
Before plastering, I wrap the trunk again so that nothing sticks out, we check if the branches are staggering. We fasten the tree to the stand. I use a glue gun for this. If you plant a tree on gypsum in a plastic pot, remember that they crack from gypsum, and very often.
I spread the gypsum with PVA glue, coat the trunk and twigs with a liquid mixture with a thin layer, a thin synthetic brush (I bought it at a hardware store). When everything dries, you need to apply the bark, for this the mixture becomes thicker. twigs. We make the roughness. I make the bark itself and the grooves with a small knife from an old manicure set. Here it is necessary to catch the moment when the gypsum begins to dry out a little, then we form it. When this layer dries up, we remove everything superfluous with a small file, if the dried piece of bark has fallen off, it can be attached with a wet brush.

Then we paint with acrylic paint (you can also use gouache, but adding PVA to it), I usually use many shades ... For example, thin twigs are light, then darker, the trunk is greenish from moss ...
Since the gypsum gave us roughness, we will use this when painting, we apply the last layer with a “dry brush”, that is, the brush should be hard, rough, dry. We dipped it into the paint, holding it perpendicularly, trying to remove excess paint from the brush (I use an old cutting board for this). There should be very little paint left on the brush. We hold the brush perpendicular to the trunk and gently pass the brush along the texture of the bark, barely touching, we try not to get into the cracks in the bark. Let dry again. Then we take another shade and repeat the painting procedure. The next layer can be lighter, or vice versa... The number of layers is not limited. From above, you can walk with mother-of-pearl paint (gold, copper), this will add a little shine. But all layers only with a DRY brush!
If you don’t like something, paint it dark again and experiment again.

I make a coaster - pebbles, glue gun, glue all small pebbles on varnish (acrylic)

ALL!!!

Olive

Material: Small beads of four colors - salad, light green, green and dark blue.
50 oval glass green olive beads.
For leaves: wire 0.35mm 50-60 m, brown or green.
For twigs: 9 pieces of 35 cm wire 1 mm thick.
Brushes for thickening, floral tape, silk threads for the trunk and twigs, glue, pebbles, ceramic stand.

Leaf making:
7 leaves in French weave with a central row on one wire. Each leaf consists of 4 rows. Dial a lot of beads on a coil of wire (at least 60 centimeters). Leave 15 cm of bare wire (this is the center of the branch), separate 9 beads, and twist the 10th bead four times (this is approximately 4 mm and is the central row for a leaf of 4 rows). The 10th bead is the top of the leaf and there is no need to bend the central row at the end of weaving - fig.1.
Then count another 9 beads and twist a loop of 18 beads twice - fig.2.
Now, as with French weaving, lift the thread with beads up, wrap around the single 10th bead - fig. 3 and lower it down, make a 1 cm shank - fig. 4.
We make side leaves: count 9 beads, leave about 12 millimeters of bare wire - Fig. 5 and twist under the 10th bead four times - Fig. 6. Then we count 9 more beads and twist 18 beads twice - Fig. 7, make the third row - Fig. 8, then the fourth row and the stalk - Fig. 9. We make the third leaf on the other side - Fig. 10, twist in the center 1 cm - Fig. 11. Then we make the fourth leaf - Fig. 12, etc., in total 7 leaves - Fig. 13.
If you want to make a leaf with a large number of rows, then near the 10th bead you need to twist more times so that there is a greater distance - Fig. 1. And in the second and subsequent leaves, leave bare wire not 12 mm, but more - Fig. 5.
Make 36 such branches of 7 leaves: 19 lettuce, 6 light green, 11 green. In all shades of green beads, dark blue is added in a ratio of one to eight to make specks.

Olive production:
We string a bead, an oval bead, a bead onto a coil of wire. We leave a bare wire of 15 cm and with this end, skipping the bead, we pass only into the bead and now we twist both ends of the wire under the second bead at a distance of 1-1.5 cm. stalk 1.5 cm. Two olives turned out on one wire.
Make 16 double and 18 single olives from 50 beads.

Assembly:
From 9 pieces of wire 35 cm each, make 9 branches of 4 branches with an interval of 1-2 cm. Place olives in these intervals. Collect everything with the help of a floristic tape, which is cut in half lengthwise to make a tape 0.5 cm wide. And at a distance of 13 cm from the top, wrap the branches with brown silk threads.
(Then, after the final assembly and planting of the tree in a ceramic vase, to form a crown, bend these wrapped parts of the branches with a thick knitting needle, winding it around it).
Make two large branches from 4 and 5 branches, adding thickening brushes in the right places. Wrap with floral tape, and then with silk threads on top at a distance of 8-9 cm. Now connect these two branches into a common stem, also adding brushes in the right places. Bend it and wrap it with floral tape, and then with silk threads on top. Plant in a ceramic vase and strengthen with a glue gun or plaster and finish the decoration to taste.

Additions:
In the master class, I indicated a wire thickness of 0.35mm, since 0.3mm - the wire is weak for so many leaves on a branch, and 0.4mm - I think it will be difficult to twist the top bead. But if you still took a wire 0.3 mm thick, then the twig can be strengthened like this: when you have woven three leaves (Fig. 10, see the master class), additionally take another piece of wire 25 cm long, fold it in half and put it between the leaves, now the center of the twig is between your leaves will be twisted from four wires (and not from two - as in Fig. 11). I will put this addition in the master class and another photo of the coil of wire on which I wove olives and autumn trees.

wish tree

You will need:
1. Wire

Which does not require long training - weaving from beads. Even a novice craftswoman can make trees, if she has accuracy, perseverance and patience.

How to make a beaded tree with your own hands so that the craft is pleasing to the eye and looks like the work of a master? Watching videos and beading master classes with step-by-step photos will help you get started safely.

In contact with

Flowering, fruiting and money trees are performed according to similar schemes. Choosing the right one is not difficult. The choice of your color scheme and the original stand will make the craft individual even when it is done with the help of a step-by-step master class. It will be easier and faster to cope with the work if you learn some techniques in practice. Trees will turn out more elegant, more perfect and will look like high-class needlework.

Leaf and flower weaving techniques: master class

Consider the basic techniques, having mastered which a beginner can safely get to work and make a beautiful beaded tree with his own hands. To complete the elements of branches, leaves and flowers, you will need beads of different colors and copper wire 0.3 mm thick.

It is important to know! Bead number - the number of beads that fit in one inch. One inch contains 2.54 cm.

Loop technique and twisting

Twisting is the easiest way to weave small branches with buds, small leaves and flowers.

  1. We string beads of the required color onto a wire of arbitrary length. You will get a simple chain of loose beads.
  2. Let's step back from the edge of the wire, separate 1 or 3 beads, bend the ends of the wire in one direction from these beads and twist them into several turns.
  3. Separate the next 1 or 3 beads and repeat the twist. The distance between the buds on the branch will depend on the length of the twist.
  4. We twist 5 or 7 elements, select the central bud, bend the wire in half, placing the bud on top, twist it tightly - you should get a branch.

Loop weaving is different in that the beads more than five and they form a loop.

Using this technique, leaves and petals are made that are very similar to real ones. While weaving the ends of the wire are directed towards each other.

Trees, the elements of which are made in this technique, look very elegant. The technique makes it possible to airy, openwork leaves and flowers. The base of each leaf central axis, arcs are located on both sides.

Having mastered these simple ways of beading, you can safely proceed to create any tree with your own hands.

Master class on weaving a tree from beads




The autumn tree still retained its foliage, but the lush crown was already painted in crimson tones. Let's choose different shades of beads to create it. All you need is about 600 grams of orange, red, gold and yellow.

Forming branches:

Assembling the stem:

  • From large branches, assemble the trunk, placing branches of red shades on top and gradually turning to golden color. To increase the volume in the lower part of the trunk, use an additional wire.
  • Wind the ends of the wire into a ring, the plane of which should be perpendicular to the trunk.
  • Additionally, branches and trunk can be wrapped with brown silk threads.

Making the base:

  • Dilute the gypsum, pour into a pot or other container intended for the base. Gypsum should fill about half the volume. Place a wire ring in the container, giving the tree the desired bend. Let the plaster dry.
  • Prepare a fresh portion of gypsum, pour a little on top of the frozen one and lay decorative pebbles, pebbles or moss. You can fill the top of the container with the rest of the beads, pressing it a little into the plaster. After the gypsum has hardened, it is easy to shake off excess beads with a brush.
  • Give the tree the desired shape and volume by straightening each branch.

A bright tree will give joy to those in love and charge positive energy to all household members. There are several types of such trees:

  1. The symbol of love is a heart entwined with flowers. It can only be called a tree conditionally. Large flowers are placed on one side, and the other is wrapped around with a beaded cord or a sprig of small loops-buds.
  2. A double-trunked tree or two trees that grow side by side, but their trunks first diverge and then lean towards each other. To decorate the trunks, alabaster or is used, giving the bark a natural look. The leaves of the trees are made by parallel weaving, achieving a natural shape. Often trees are decorated with flowers of different colors.
  3. Two trees of different colors are performed in the same technique. Thin and flexible trunks are woven into a two-color tourniquet. Crowns are made lush and thick. Choose beads of delicate shades. Sometimes weave beads in the form of hearts.
  4. A trunk is formed in the form of two hearts, located one above the other. Small leaves on thin branches hang in an openwork veil.

Weaving trees from beads with your own hands is an exciting process. With each tree created, skill increases, imagination develops and the need to create beauty increases.

If you love flowers and not only living ones, then you can weave flowers from beads with your own hands. For beginner needlewomen, now we will tell you how to make a product in the form of a cute forget-me-not.

Starting simple

First you need to string 6 beads on the wire. 1st yellow, and then blue. After that, we stretch the wire through 2, 3 and 4 beads, and then into the first yellow one. The ends of the wire must be connected under the yellow bead.

How many of these forget-me-nots to make is up to you, but we are sure that you will want a basket of forget-me-nots.

Next we make leaves. They run parallel to each other. First, string three beads in the middle of the wire, then thread the end into the second and third beads. After that, the number of beads is increased to the middle of the leaf, then reduced. Twist the wire. Make as many leaves as you need. When everything is ready - connect your bouquet.

Now let's work on the daisies:

In a parallel technique, make 10-13 petals for the flower itself. We use yellow beads for the middle of the flower, but green will be used to make leaves. When all the details are done, we collect the flower: we connect the petals, you need to insert a yellow bead in the middle of the flower. We attach leaves to the stem, and that's it. It turned out to be a cute daisy!

Variety of choice

Let's see what tree and flower schemes are:

Agree that it is very beautiful, and if you do it yourself, then there will be no limit to joy.

In order to make flowers and other crafts, needlewomen use beads up to 5 mm in diameter, flattened from the side of the hole, and glass beads (up to 8 mm) are well used in the manufacture of crafts.

All absolutely flowers, even if they are easy to manufacture, must be collected according to the schemes. Many factors influence the result of your work: the number of beads, in what sequence they are collected, tones and semitones of the surface, as well as gloss, dullness or transparency of the beads, and of course the sizes and shapes.

But every willing craftswoman can learn how to weave flowers. True, the amount of time spent on weaving a particular craft depends on the degree of complexity of the weaving pattern. You can decorate all kinds of hairpins, bracelets, handbag, clothes, etc. with such wonderful flowers.

Many flowers are woven French weaving technique (arc), some craftswomen make great original crafts in parallel weave. You can even combine several weaving techniques in one craft.

Let's admire the photo, what beautiful flowers you can get:

Love tree

A lot has already been said about trees, on the Internet, if you wish, you can find everything that is possible, and sometimes impossible to come up with. Let's see how you can make products that would please the eyes for a long time or would be a great gift for our relatives and friends. Today we will try to learn how to make a tree of love, we will weave it, of course, from beads.

For this tree we need: wire, beads and beads, acrylic paint, thread.

At the very beginning, we make a round frame of a tree. We measure 4 pieces of wire 23 cm long, and one more - 32 cm.

We roll four pieces into rings, carefully connect them together.

We bend the longest wire at 90 degrees. Then we will attach rings to it.

We insert the second ring into the first as in the figure.

We insert another ring into the resulting figure, at the junction we fasten everything with wire, should be pretty solid.

And we make the last ring, like the equator near the earth, we connect all the places of alignment with wire. Attach the stem to this ball.

And now take another wire, measure a piece of 35 cm, attach it to the leg. Along the stem, you can wind various curls to make it more interesting. As a result, we get something like this tree, the end of which we insert into a vessel with plaster.

As soon as the plaster dries, we make a trunk. We do this either from napkins soaked in glue, or we take construction tape. Once the trunk is dry, you need to paint everything with a suitable color. This is where we already need threads, they also need to be dyed in the same shade and wound wet.

Trees made of beads are a separate area of ​​creativity, sometimes it is impossible to believe that this can be created from ordinary beads and wire. Today we understand the technology of making trees from beads.

Weaving a tree from beads is a laborious process, because the master creates each branch, each leaf by hand. Gradually forming the crown of a tree from small details, a whole tree is obtained. At the same time, many different schemes have been developed today that convey the features of different types of trees.

How to weave a tree from beads?

To weave a tree, you first need to master the basics of beading, namely the sequence of stringing glass beads on a wire and forming even loops.

For work you will need:

Bead tree: instruction

Since each tree is individual and differs in texture, there cannot be a single instruction, each scheme is individual. And even starting to work, you will be convinced that your result will differ from the original picture.

Bead Tree for Beginners

For beginners, it is worth starting work with the simplest tree according to the scheme - sakura. You will need only one color of beads in a soft pink shade.

  1. Cut about 1 meter of wire for the first branch.
  2. String 6-7 beads on the wire and fix them by twisting the ends of the wire as shown in the figure, so that you get a petal.
  3. Step back about 1-1.5 cm and repeat the steps from point 2.
  4. Make 11 petals, fold the wire in half and weave the petals in pairs to make a twig.
  5. For a whole tree, weave about 90-120 such branches, large branches will be obtained by weaving 3 ordinary ones.
  6. Gradually wind all the branches onto a thick rod forming a trunk, use adhesive tape to secure the fastening.
  7. To attach the tree to the base, use gypsum or alabaster, mold the bark of the tree and roots smoothly into the ground on the existing base. Be careful not to stain the crown of the tree.

Tree from beads, scheme for mountain ash

To collect a bright autumn beauty, you will need not only beads, but also bright red beads that look like berries.

  1. Each branch of rowan consists of 9 leaves and a bunch of berries. For the leaflet, use the diagram below.
  2. Cut the wire about 70 cm long, place a green bead in the middle.
  3. For the next row, pass both ends of the wire through 2 beads and pull them up so that they are above the bead of the first row. And so on according to the scheme, collect 9 petals.
  4. For berries, cut a wire about 70 cm long, place a black bead in the middle, pass both ends of the wire through a large red bead, and then through brown beads. According to this scheme, collect 16 berries for one bunch.
  5. Form a sprig of berries and petals. For a tree, you will need about 70-100 branches.
  6. Form all the branches into a crown and twist around the stem-rod, with the help of plaster, fix the tree on the base.

Incredibly beautiful winter mountain ash can be made using transparent beads to simulate snow.

Step by step beaded autumn tree

To weave an autumn tree, you need to use beads of yellow, red, green tones. For example, a step-by-step scheme for weaving maple.

  1. A maple leaf consists of 5 individual petals. Each petal is woven according to the following pattern (refer to the pictures below):
  • string 1 red bead on the wire and place in the center
  • pass the two ends of the wire through two red beads
  • pass the two ends of the wire through the red, yellow and red bead
  • pass the two ends of the wire through the red, two yellow and again red bead
  • pass the two ends of the wire through 3 yellow beads
  • pass the two ends of the wire through 2 yellow beads
  • pass the two ends of the wire through 1 green bead

  • When weaving the next petal in the fifth ore, pass the wire through the fifth row of the first petal so that they hold together. Finish the petal as shown in the diagram, twisting the ends together.

  1. Assemble a leaflet from 5 parts, you will need about 150 leaves in total
  2. Form sprigs from 3-5 leaves, twisting the ends and securing with floral tape
  3. Form a tree from the branches, the ends of the wire can be wrapped around a heavy stone, which will be the basis
  4. Using plaster or alabaster, give the texture of the tree to the trunk
  5. Once dry, paint with acrylics.

Tree of beads and copper wire: step by step photo

The combination of delicate blue beads and rich copper color gives a feeling of an air haze around the tree. In this example, the wire will remain uncovered, since such beauty cannot be hidden in any way.

We offer instructions for creating such a tree with a photo:

  1. String 17 beads on a piece of copper wire about 80 cm long.
  2. Form a loop in the middle of the wire, step back about 1 cm, string the beads again and form a loop on each side of the center.
  3. Twist to form a branch. Each branch should have seven petals.
  4. Twist about 150 branches in total.
  5. From 3 branches, collect a large branch, you will get 50 branches in total.
  6. Collect the entire trunk from large branches, forming separate large branches and smaller branches, increasing the volume towards the bottom. Wind the ends of the wire into a ring of small diameter.
  7. Dilute the gypsum in a container, fill a mold under a tree by a third and place the ends of the wire there, pour in the remaining gypsum and hold for 10-15 minutes until the mixture sets.
  8. From above, gypsum can be sprinkled with the remains of beads.
  9. Arrange the branches as you wish.

Money tree from beads

It is believed that a money tree or a fat woman will bring prosperity to the house, but if you are not a plant lover, then you can weave an artificial tree with your own hands. For work you will need:

  • beads of several shades of green
  • wire
  • coins
  • gold paint
  • scotch

  1. Cut a wire about 70 cm long, string 7-8 beads of various shades on it and form a loop, string another 7-8 beads without indentation, form a second loop, repeat 6-8 times, as a result you will get a dense bud.
  2. Twist about 60 buds for a small tree.
  3. Cut the wire about 50 cm long, form a small loop in the middle and twist the ends. Glue a coin to the loop, you will need 15 of these branches.
  4. Take 1 coin branch and 4 green ones, twist together, repeat 2 more times and collect a large branch from the resulting 3 branches by wrapping the wire with paper adhesive tape. Color the ribbon golden brown. Repeat for other branches.
  5. Attach all branches to the stem-rod, wrap with tape and cover the trunk with plaster. Using acrylic paint, give the natural color of the wood to the plaster.

Yin-Yang tree from beads

The Yin-Yang tree is a combination of two colors of beads, white and black, symbolizing the feminine and masculine, as well as their relationship and complementarity. In nature, of course, you will not find such trees, but with the help of beads it is easy to betray this idea.

You will need white and black beads, thin wire, a rod and a base.

  1. Cut the wire into pieces about 70 cm long.
  2. String 5 white beads onto the wire and form a loop in the middle, retreat 1 cm from each side, form 2 more loops and continue until you get 7 loops on the branch. Wrap the twig with white thread or ribbon. Collect 50-60 white branches.
  3. String 5 black beads onto the wire and form a loop in the middle, retreat 1 cm from each side, form 2 more loops and continue until you get 7 loops on the branch. Wrap the twig with black thread or ribbon. Collect 50-60 black branches.
  4. Collect the branches of each color into a tree and twist their trunks together.
