Butterfly earrings from beads scheme. Bright handmade beaded butterfly earrings. DIY beaded butterfly

In this master class we will learn how to weave earrings in the form of butterflies. The idea and colors are Huichol.

They weave like flowers. Before weaving these butterflies, look - the first three rows in butterflies are the same as in flowers.

I will show on green butterflies. 1st row: dial 12 brown beads, close in a ring.
2nd row: we distribute our six loops like this: one for the head, two for the wings and one for the tail. You can start with any loop. With a needle we pass into the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th and 12th bead.
I started with the top wing. Weave two loops of 5 dark green beads. For the ponytail 2 brown - 1 black - 2 brown. Again, two of 5 dark green for the wings. For the head, the same as for the tail: 2 brown - 1 black - 2 brown.
3rd row: For the wings, 5 green beads, between the wings, tail and head for expansion, 1 black. Head and tail: 2 brown - 1 black - 2 brown.

4th row: wing 5 light green beads; extension between the wings 1 green - 1 black - 1 green;

extension between the lower wing and tail 2 green - 1 black; tail 5 brown; extension between the upper wing and the head 3 black.

Now it is necessary to draw antennae on the butterfly's head, and at the same time a loop for attaching earwires under earrings.
Cast on 6 brown and 1 black beads. Return the needle through the first four from black.

Dial 1 or 2 brown beads (for fastening the fastening between the antennae) + 4 brown and 1 black for the second antennae; go back through the last four brown beads. Our antennae are ready.

Cast on 2 more brown beads to complete the butterfly's head.

5th row: for the upper wing 5 light green + 3 light green for the extension, go to the black between the wings; dial 3 light green ones to expand the lower wing and instead of a new loop on the wing we weave 2, 3 and 4 beads at once (as we did in flowers).

Now the most interesting, we make out the lower wing. It can be a short or long tail, or maybe a bead (as in red butterflies). A variant is possible without a tail on the lower wings.
We have short tails. Therefore, we collect, instead of expanding between the lower wing and the tail of the butterfly, 1 light green - 1 green - 1 dark green and 3 black. We return the needle back through these three different green beads.

Since we no longer need to build up the tail of the butterfly itself, we collect 2 more light green ones and pass several expansion beads at once with a needle in the tail area, namely: green and black (expansion between the wing and tail), brown, black and brown on the tail, black and green (extension on the other side between the tail and the lower wing).

We carry out the second tail on the lower wing. Coming out of the green, dial 3 light green - 1 green - 1 dark green and 3 black. Return with a needle to the first three different greens (from light green to only one). On the lower wing, immediately weave 2, 3 and 4 beads.

Next, expand the lower and upper wings: dial 3 light green, go to black between the wings and again 3 light green (for the upper wing). Then make the last loop on the upper wing from 5 light green beads. Our butterfly is ready.

It remains only to walk several times in the course of weaving in the head area at the place where the fasteners are attached, to give reliability. We fasten the stitch.
You can combine several of these butterflies into a bracelet or sew them onto the base, as I did in

No sooner had spring come (in April), as already summer crept up unnoticed - unseasonably hot. As expected, everything blooms in summer, and a lot of butterflies (well, other insects, of course) are spinning around the flowers.

So, I offer a master class on butterfly earrings and again in the style of the Huichol Indians.
The idea is not mine - peeped on Ebay and Etsy (through the search for "Huichol"). There I found cute earrings in the form of butterflies with pendants. Upon closer examination, it turned out that they were woven in the same way as flower earrings, i.e. mesh in a circle, one needle. Taking into account the peculiarities of the work of this tribe, namely, awesome color transitions (they believe that chewing of the famous hallucinogenic cactus was not without), we select the shades of beads for our earrings.

Materials:

- beads different shades+ black is a must (Czech has a richer choice, but I worked with Chinese) 10/0 or another size;
- beads, no more than 5 mm, if you want to decorate the wings with tails from them (red butterflies);
- monofilament or fishing line (I work with monofilament), perhaps a nylon thread is also suitable;
- Earrings for earrings. Or… a clasp for a bracelet. It depends on what you want to do after this master class.

Beginning of work

1st row: dial 12 brown beads, close in a ring.

2nd row: as in flower earrings, our second row also consists of six loops of 5 beads. Only they are distributed in two loops per wings, one for the tail of a butterfly and one for a head with antennae. You can start with any, for example, with the head. We collect 2 brown-1 black-2 brown beads, we pass to the second of the previous row. Weave the subsequent loops through one bead - in the photo the key beads are marked in red: two loops of 5 dark red beads; ponytail loop - 2 brown-1 black-2 brown; again two of 5 dark red. Close the row by passing the needle through the last key and the first two brown beads of the head.

3rd row: 2 brown - 1 black - 2 brown for the head, go into the key, fourth in a row, bead of the loop of the previous row, dial 1 black bead for expansion, go into the key bead, second in a row, of the next loop - marked in blue - dial 5 red beads for wings; 1 black, 5 red, 1 black; 2 brown - 1 black - 2 brown for ponytail; 1 black, 2 x 5 red for the second wing, 1 black, close the row.

4th row: we immediately perform the antennae. Dial 5 brown and 1 black, return with a needle to the first three browns from black, dial 2 or 4 black (future loop for fastening the fasteners), 3 brown, 1 black, make a mustache in the manner described above, dial 2 more brown, go to the key. Our head with antennae is ready.

To expand, type 3 black from head to wing; make a loop of 5 light red beads on the wing, dial 1 red-1 black-1 red between the wings. Between the wing and the tail, dial 2 red-1 black from the wing; for the tail 5 brown beads.
When closing the row, dial 3 black beads from the wing to the head, go through three beads of the head at once, as indicated in the photo, or you can go through the loop for the fastener to give it strength. Then go through three black beads and finally the wing beads.

5th row: in the last row we only add wings. Weave 5 light red beads onto the upper wing, passing the key one, to expand the wing itself, dial 3 more light red ones and go to black, dial 3 light red ones again and pass the needle into three beads of the lower wing at once.
To decorate the lower wing, and the bottom of the earring, there may be several options: for example, in the original Huichol earrings, pendants go on both lower wings and the butterfly tail. In my red ones, these are glass bicones, and in blue ones, they are just beaded horns.

Having completed the pendant on one wing, pass through the beads of the butterfly's tail, complete the second pendant; expand the lower and upper wings. If desired, go through the beads of the head, strengthening the fasteners at the attachment point.
Run the second earring, attach the earring. Our Huichol butterfly earrings are ready!

Advice: in the process of work, it turned out that the 4 black beads dialed between the antennae slightly twist the earring. Therefore, try to dial a smaller number, or do one antennae, dial 3 black ones and close them with a ring (I did this on blue earrings), then complete the second antennae.

It is also possible to connect these butterflies into a bracelet: a head-tail, tails on the wings and antennae, through beads or a chain between them.
Experiments with the head: antennae are longer, two large beads (as eyes) + antennae. Weave a large bead into a ring of beads forming a body (our 1st row).
Earrings are woven in 20 minutes each, so that during one day you can weave all the options you like. Then wear the collection for the whole season :)))

The beaded butterfly looks amazingly airy and elegant. From small multi-colored beads, the lightest wings are obtained, such that it seems as if they are now flapping - and the butterfly will fly into the air. Making such an ornament with your own hands is not at all difficult: even a beginner can do it. It just takes a certain amount of attention and care.

By repeating the actions of the instructor and listening to his instructions, you can get at least beautiful decoration which will soon decorate your outfit. You can choose the butterfly that you like the most and learn how to make it with my own hands. Consider short reviews our video tutorials.

DIY beaded butterfly.

For the butterfly you will need:

  • beads (the color of the beads depends on your taste);
  • wire (0.3 mm);
  • thread, needle and scissors.

First, cut off about 50 cm of wire. We take 2 black beads and thread the wire through them so that they are in the center of it. Then we pass one end of the wire through the bead. After that, we take 18 beads and put them on the wire, with the same end we pass through the black bead to form a wing, we carry out the same operation with the next wing.

The next step will be large wings, we take 26 beads and put them on the wire, we pass the same end through our black bead, we do the same with the other wing.

Beautiful butterfly made of beads and beads.

To begin with, we will make a rhombus from beads, beads can be of any color, size and shape. We draw our action plan, just as shown in the video. We will have four wings, two large and two small. We make something similar to a rhombus, this will be our wing, large. We do the same with the little one. We connect our wings into one.

We do the same procedure with other wings. After that, we connect the wings, twisting their wires together. Half of the work is done, it remains only to make the torso and antennae. We put beads of any shape on the wire, top and bottom. We put beads on the upper wires and twist them.

Video lesson:

Brooch in the shape of a butterfly.

For the butterfly we need:

  • wire 0.4 mm;
  • Czech beads 2 colors;
  • large beads;
  • 2 black beads

and we make the body of a butterfly from large beads, on average it needs 15 beads per body 5 cm in size. After we have made the body, we make antennae, for beauty we wrap them in a spiral. To make a wing, we need a wire 40-50 cm, which will need to be threaded through the center of the body. Then we put nine Czech beads on one end of the wire and make a ring, repeat the operation 3-4 more times and do exactly the same manipulations with the other wing.

First we need wire and beads. We put the beads on the wire and with the other end we pass the other end of the wire through the same beads, we do these manipulations several more times. Then we thread one end of the wire already with beads into the last bead of the body, this will be the butterfly wing.

Do the same on the other side of the wire. We put on another bead and thread the other end of the wire. Now we put beads of any color on both wires, this one will be the eyes of a butterfly. And in the end we will make a mustache. It is necessary to put beads on the ends of the wire and just twist, and cut off the excess.

Beaded butterfly for beginners.

To make a butterfly, we need about one and a half meters of wire, beads (the color of the beads depends on your taste). First you need to make a scheme according to which you will work. This is very important, because in the process of work you will not go astray. The butterfly can be used as a brooch. Butterfly made of beads can become both a decoration of your room and nice gift for your family, friends and colleagues.

So, first you need to make the torso, the next step is a pair of wings. To make the butterfly more beautiful and natural, we will make antennae and twist them into a spiral. Here the butterfly is ready, let it please the eye of you and your loved ones.

Decorative butterflies from beads.

If a clasp is sewn to such a butterfly, it looks elegant on clothes and can serve as an elegant brooch. Butterflies of small size can be used for a necklace if it is designed in a floral theme. Each wing is woven separately, their color is arbitrary, having nothing to do with real patterns.

The pattern of weaving butterfly wings is drawn up on a regular checkered notebook sheet. An axis is drawn diagonally, on it the wings of a butterfly are drawn the way you want to see it. In this case, you need to decide how to make a butterfly, what color of beads you are going to work with.

The bow tie.

Making decorations for men's wardrobe- fashionable and elegant bow tie. For its manufacture used black and silver beads. A thread 0.14 mm thick is inserted into the needle and fixed. Butterfly consists of several parts, their size is determined by the number of beads collected.

The technique of mosaic weaving was used. It is told in detail and shown in the video how to weave a butterfly element, how to move from one row of beads to another. The interweaving of silver beads creates an effect close to costume fabric. Then the second fabric is knitted, which is the second layer of the butterfly.

Video lesson:

Dragonfly from beads.

To make it you will need:

  • wire;
  • scissors;
  • yellow, orange and black beads;
  • blue beads for the eyes and yellow beads for the antennae.

We start weaving from the tail. We take a wire 50 cm long and string one black bead on it. We put the ends of the wire together, and immediately string eight black beads onto the two ends. We lower everything down and string one black bead on one of the wires. It fixes previously worn beads. A strip of black beads depicts the body of a butterfly. Next, wings are knitted one at a time based on the ends of the wire spread apart.

Embroidered butterfly.

To make a butterfly, you will need 3-4 mm beads and larger beads, Chinese beads, smaller beads No. 10, glass beads and cutting, as well as gold-colored sequins. As large elements, you can use drop-shaped cabochons and large beads or natural stones.

The butterfly turns out to be heavy, you can make an interesting pendant out of it. According to the template, wings are marked on the fabric, cut out with an allowance. Large elements are placed first, arranged symmetrically, then they are sheathed around the perimeter with beads or glass beads. Beadwork is a simple but beautiful work.

Video lesson:

Beaded butterfly, simple and fast.

We need beads of three colors, a wire with a diameter of 0.3 mm in the amount of 50 cm for one wing. Having folded the wire in half, we put on one half of the bead, which will be the lock. Next, two beads are put on two wires at once. The following describes in detail in what order to string the beads and how to connect them together.

Weaving techniques for beginners are very simple. When both wings are completed, the torso is knitted with antennae, at the ends of which single beads are installed. The butterfly comes together, the video details how this is done. The remaining ends of the wire are cut off, the butterfly is aligned.

Earrings made of bright beads are a wonderful decoration for a girl. In this master class, we will weave bright beaded butterfly earrings with our own hands. All details from the photo below.

materials

Before you get started, prepare:

  • elongated beads of rich blue and orange;
  • round white beads;
  • silver earrings;
  • fishing line;
  • wire cutters;
  • needle;
  • pliers.

Step 1. Cut off a piece of string. String one orange bead on it, and then eight blue ones in pairs, placing small white beads between them.

Step 2. Form a circle from the resulting row.

Step 3. On the sides of the orange bead, fix two white beads with fishing line.

Step 4. Gently passing the fishing line along the resulting circle, fasten another blue one between two blue beads in the second row, two orange ones above the round white bead and again one blue one between two identical ones. The result of weaving will be a semblance of a butterfly wing on one side of the product.

Step 5. At the bottom of the butterfly, also fix four white beads with the help of a fishing line.

Step 6. Weave the second row of the butterfly wing on the opposite side in the way you already know.

Step 7. On the sides of the orange already framed with white beads, weave in one more white bead.

Step 8. Weave the second row of the butterfly wing. You will need two white beads, two orange beads, two white beads and two more orange beads. You can see how the beads should be placed in the photo.

Step 9. In a similar way, but placing the beads in reverse order (two orange, two white and two more orange) and starting weaving from below, form the opposite butterfly wing.

Step 10. With another row, add two white beads, one orange, three white and another orange.

Step 11. At the bottom of the butterfly, add two more white beads along the edges of the row of white beads at the bottom.

Step 12. On the opposite wing of the butterfly, also add two orange beads and white beads as the edging of the product.

Butterfly earrings are a traditional decoration for the Russian North. To make them, you will need white Czech beads No. 10, two pearls 8 cm in diameter, two drops of warp and fishing line No. 16. The base "drop" can be purchased ready-made, for this case, a transparent or white glass bead-drop, the length of which is 2.5 cm, is suitable. You can make it yourself. Take a toothpick and cut it in half with scissors, wrap each of the halves with white knitting thread (preferably cotton), while forming a droplet. Fix the end of the thread with transparent glue. Homemade option is preferred due to its lighter weight, because due to the large number of beads in the weaving, the earrings are quite weighty. This is the best gift for the new year.

The first step is braiding the pearl. To do this, weave a chain in Ndebele technique and close it in a circle, inside which you place a pearl. After passing the fishing line through its holes, secure the pearl. The number of beads in the chain will depend on its diameter.

Next, you need to figure out where and how the wings will be woven. In the diagram below, the beads that will be the basis of the wings are highlighted in red. To make fastening the earring and the drop convenient, leave at least six beads unused, three on each side of the pearl braid (in the figure, these beads are highlighted in yellow and there are 5 of them - 2 on one side and 3 on the other). One of the two halves of the wing will be attached to the beads of one side of the Ndebele chain braiding the pearl, and the other half to the beads of the second side of the chain.

The second step is weaving half of one wing. In the diagram below, the beads that will be common to both halves of one wing are indicated in black. The wing of the earrings is woven with a net, in each row the number of transverse beads increases per bead. The sixth row of weaving - openwork, is common to both halves of one wing. In it, the number of beads is 3 for each span, and the spans themselves are twice as many as in the other rows. Similarly, weave another half of the wing, and then the second wing.

The third step is braiding the base drop. In the technique of monastic weaving, make columns in the shape of a cross (in the diagram below they are indicated in green). The number of links depends on the size of your base drop. Having placed the base drop inside, pull off the resulting structure (in the diagram below, the beads and the thread for which you need to pull are marked in red). Then connect the columns of the cross together (in the diagram, the connection is made with blue beads and a black thread). Weave the bottom of the drop using the technique of mosaic weaving.
