New crafts from beads trees. bead tree

Today we decided to present to your attention another DIY craft - a tree made of beads. To make a tree from beads, which we will call “lilac magic”, we will need the following materials:

a) White, purple, pink, yellow and green beads;
b) Green wire 0.3 mm thick;
c) Brown tape;
d) Acrylic paints of several colors (brown, bronze, black, green);
e) Construction gypsum;
e) A piece of polystyrene foam;
g) Masking tape.

First we need to make a tree consisting of flowering branches and green twigs. To create beautiful flowering branches, pour pink and purple beads in equal proportions into a separate container and mix them thoroughly.

Now we begin to set the beads on the wire, while the wire from the main skein does not need to be torn off yet, and the total length of the beads to be strung on this wire should be about one meter. This length of wire thread with beads should be enough to create 70-100 branches for our future tree.

After this, let's step back about 10 cm from the edge of our wire and count out 10 beads.

We connect the resulting segment into a ring and twist the wire at the base to secure it.

We retreat half a centimeter from the resulting ring and make another similar ring-loop.

In the same way we make a few more such loops (7-15 pieces).

After this, we need to determine the middle ring-loop (in our case it is the seventh). Slightly separate the middle loop as in the photo and connect the ends of the wire.

Next, you need to give the branch a natural look; to do this, twist it and distribute all the rings-loops equidistant from each other and bend all the rings in the direction of the central loop. We have our first branch.

We leave some length of wire for the stem of the twig, and cut off the rest of the wire. Similarly, in the same sequence, we make 35 more of the same branches.

Using the same loop weaving technique, we must make green branches with leaves, using only green beads.

The next step is to assemble the tree. This procedure is carried out by first making one middle one from the three previous branches.

Then, these medium branches are combined into large branches.

Now large blanks of branches need to be lengthened and strengthened using denser wire one millimeter thick and wrapped with tape on top.

Let's collect all the branches into a small tree and strengthen the trunk with wire.

Let's take a foam blank and give it an oval shape. Now we take three pieces of polystyrene foam, the sizes of which are reduced by a pyramid. From these pieces of polystyrene we form a slide and secure the resulting structure with masking tape.

We attach the tree to the foam base. You can simply stick it into the foam and secure it around with wire.

Now we need to make the base of the tree more natural and durable; for this, pour about 100 ml of water into a separate small container and, constantly stirring the water, add plaster in small portions so that a thick but spreading solution is obtained. Since gypsum hardens very quickly, we make small portions and quickly apply the solution to the product. First we will make a trunk, then a rock, and at the end of this stage - stones around the perimeter of the stand.

It is convenient to apply plaster to wood using a thick brush with stiff bristles. Gypsum, flowing down the tree trunk, will form a characteristic relief. Depending on the desired thickness and shape of the trunk, you can apply from one to five layers of alabaster. After the plaster has completely dried, you should cover the trunk of the future tree with brown paint, the clearing near the tree with green paint, and the stones with white paint.

Then dip a dry brush or small sponge into the black acrylic and use a blotting motion to cover the rock and stones.

Using a dry sponge, randomly apply bronze paint at the base of the tree.

To give our clearing a beautiful look, we need to plant a lot of flowers, for this we apply a small amount of quick-drying and highly desirable transparent glue. Pour colorful beads onto it and wait for the glue to dry. After this, use a soft brush to remove excess beads. You can also plant flowers in the clearing, which we do in the same way as the twigs. In our case, there will be flowers in the form of spikelets made of white and yellow beads.

We make cute flowers from purple beads. To do this, we will form five purple loops on the wire and at the end one yellow one. Those. the total number of loops obtained is six.

To get a flower from this wire blank, you need to wrap the purple loop rings around the yellow ring and twist it to secure it. We make green bushes in the same way. We will stick these flowers and bushes into the lawn near the tree.

In order for our flowers to easily fit into the foam, you can make narrow holes in it using an awl or a needle.

Beaded tree - a beautiful souvenir and home decoration, handmade amulet and a good gift for friends. You can buy a money bead tree from those who do needlework, but it will not be cheap, because the master takes a long time to make such a product and spends a lot of beads on it.

What you will need:

  • A large number of beads (depending on the size of the product). Choose beads of one or more colors.
  • Thin copper wire (its quantity also depends on the size of the craft).
  • The basis for the tree is a branch (found or broken on the street).
  • Gypsum foundation for wood (you can buy regular gypsum or cement mixture).

How to make a tree:

  • First you need to “tidy up” the stick that will serve as the tree trunk. The branch is cleaned and opened with varnish; if there is no varnish, you can cover it with acrylic paint of any color.
  • The branch should be planted in the gypsum mixture and left until completely dry.
  • Then start working with beads, string up to 10 beads on a thin wire and twist a ring at the base.
  • There should be up to 10 bead rings on one strand of wire.
  • The wire should be twisted into a twig; it should be strong.
  • The base of the wire should be wound and fixed on the branch.
  • You should make a lot of these branches with beads to make the tree very lush.
  • When the crown is finished, you should start decorating the foundation. Using superglue or silicone-based glue, fix pebbles, broken glass or mirror (broken CD, as an option), or any other decorations.

Women have been decorating themselves and their homes since time immemorial. Of course, in those days, women were limited in resources, but over time, the art of decorating the house with their own hands developed more and more.

Later, with the advent of glass, a new type of needlework appeared - beadwork. Using threads and multi-colored beads, craftswomen made all kinds of jewelry (earrings, pendants, bracelets, hair ornaments), and did not forget about their home, because comfort in the home is the main task of women.

Today, one of the most popular trends in beadwork is beaded trees. They come in completely different sizes, from mini sakura on keychains to two-meter beauties. Beginning craftswomen ask themselves: do they weave only sakura trees, or can they weave other trees as well?

Indeed, sakura are by far the most popular, but this is due to the great love for the east among our craftswomen. In fact, any tree or shrub can be woven from beads; birches, mountain ash and flowering garden trees look especially beautiful.

How to make a birch tree from beads? Master Class

The Russian birch tree does not leave indifferent both the Slavs themselves and admirers of Russian nature around the world. We have prepared a step-by-step master class on weaving birch trees. To work, you will need green beads of three to four shades.

The more contrasting the colors, the richer and brighter the foliage will be. You will also need wire measuring 0.3, 1 and 3 mm, thread for winding, PVA glue, alabaster, acrylic paints and two brushes (wide and thin).



We take the thinnest wire, cut off a piece of about 40 cm. String 7 beads, step back 5-7 cm from the edge and twist the loop. The colors of the beads are strung in a chaotic order. In total, wind 9 loops on one thread, the distance between the loops is about 1 cm. Fold it in half, one loop remains in the center, twist the rest together into one branch.



You need to weave 15 such branches, and using the same technology, but with 11 loops, 57 pieces. The smaller ones will go to the top, the rest will be evenly distributed throughout the tree.



Let's move on to the next step. From branches with 9 loops we form 5 large branches, 3 thin ones in each. We also repeat with the remaining branches. To the branches that are longer we wrap 1 mm wire with threads. Set aside and return to the top. From the short ones we connect two trunks, in one of 3 branches, in the second with 2. We wind 3 mm wire to each and wrap it with thread.



The next step is to form the crown of the tree. One top will consist of 3 branches and 12 long branches are tied to it. The second of 2 branches, and 7 long branches are tied to it.



We connect the trunk so that the thicker top is 1 - 2 cm higher. Wrap it with construction tape. We leave small ends of the wire at the bottom and bend them in different directions like roots for stability.



Choosing a shape for the base. Cover with a bag, pour in diluted alabaster and lower the birch tree. We fix it so that while drying it does not bend to one side. We wait about 10-12 hours until it dries completely.



We hide the beads in foil so as not to stain them with paint. We prime the trunk and base with PVA glue. We wait a few hours and move on to painting. We cover the trunk with white paint in two layers. We wait until it dries completely and move on to decorating the bark. Using black paint we draw stripes like on a real birch tree. Again, wait for it to dry and decorate the base to your liking. Remove the foil and straighten the branches.

Operating procedure

Using a centimeter, measure and cut forty centimeters of wire. We plant and arrange fifteen beads in the center.

Our product is ready! Now you need to make a stand for it.

We prepare a solution of our gypsum: pour some water into the mixing product and add gypsum in powder form. Let's stir everything. The finished mixture should look like liquid sour cream. Everything is very simple, but if something doesn’t work out, you can find a training video on the Internet.

Pour the solution into the mold, let it harden for about one hour.

When the plaster is ready, take out the casting.

Let's prepare the solution one more time.

Place the tree vertically in the recess and slowly fill it again with plaster. Let's wait until everything hardens, after which you can decorate the base of the tree at your discretion, for example, paint it with paints and decorate it with ornaments. There are many options for creating beaded trees with your own hands. Craftsmen, of whom there are many, will help you select materials and technology for an unusual tree that can become a tree of happiness for you and your loved ones.

Ava's tree of happiness: master class

Let's try to create with our own hands the Ava tree of happiness, which will also become a lighting fixture . For work we need to take about 200-300 grams different beads in lilac tones. We pour all the beads into one box and mix them, and then string them onto a large wire.

The wire must be very thin so that with every breath of wind all the branches tremble, but at the same time it must be strong. We will take the wire from the transformer for a special table lamp.

First we will make the frame of the tree.

Let's take twelve pieces of special wire, attach everything together and plaster it.

We plaster in a certain way: dilute a mixture of gypsum and water, the gypsum should be like thick sour cream.

Let's take a candy box with the desired bottom shape. We put a plastic bag on the box so that later our tree can be simply removed from the box. Now let's put our pieces of wire in the center and fill it with plaster. Let's leave it all to harden for 24 hours.

When the plaster is ready, remove it from the mold and place it on a stack of newspapers. Let's leave it again for a day, since the plaster should dry completely and give up all the unnecessary water to the newspapers.

Now that the base has hardened and completely dried, we turn the tree upside down and place it on future tree trunks, and begin to varnish the bottom of the stand. Let's leave everything in this state for five hours. When the varnish dries, let's turn everything back and directly begin to create the shape of the crown of our product.

Once we are happy with the curves of our wire, we will begin making hanging branches from beads. To do this, measure the wire with beads to the required length and pass the free end of the wire back through all the beads except the lowest one on the branch.

Now we attach a branch of a certain length to the aluminum base, wrapping the ends of the wire around the thick main wire. All hanging branches are made in this way.

When everything is done, all that remains is to connect the LEDs to make the product glow.

We wrap all the branches with foil or cellophane and plaster them. After drying, we paint and varnish everything, then remove the foil (or polyethylene) and fluff the product, giving it its original shape.
