The weaving technique is very simple, so we strongly recommend that novice jewelers of all ages try their hand at it.

Preparation of tools and materials

To make earrings from beads in a short time, you will need the following set of materials and tools:

  • black pearl beads 3 mm – 82 pcs.;
  • wire 3 mm – 60 cm;
    connecting rings – 4 pcs.;
  • ear wires – 2 pcs.;
  • side cutters;
  • round nose pliers.

Please note that you can make jewelry from beads made from natural stones. These earrings will look expensive and stylish.

If you prefer large jewelry, then you need to take larger beads of 6 or 8 mm. But the weaving pattern remains the same. So feel free to experiment with size and color scheme. The only thing that is not recommended is to take beads of different diameters. The earrings will turn out ugly and crooked. If you are taking up bead weaving for the first time, we recommend that you get acquainted with

Stages of creating jewelry with step-by-step photos

Cut 30 cm of wire with side cutters and thread four black beads onto it.


String another bead onto the left end of the wire, and pass through it in the opposite direction with the right end. That is, criss-cross.


The result will be a circle that resembles a flower with five petals.


Now thread three black beads through the left end of the wire, and one through the right end.


Use the right end of the wire to pass through the first bead that was strung on the left end.


The result will be two “flowers” ​​in a semicircle.


Continue repeating the fourth and fifth points of the master class. As a result, you should have 7 “flowers”, as shown in the photo.


Next, thread two black beads onto the left end of the wire, and one onto the right end.


Then thread the wire through the bead of the previous circle. In the photo the required bead is marked in red.


Now, to form the last circle of bead earrings, you need to use the same right end of the wire to pass through the first black bead, which is located at the left end. It is also indicated by a red circle.


The main part of the earring is formed in a circle.


Next comes the final stage. String two black beads on both ends of the wire. And go in the opposite direction of each of them. In the photo the directions are shown by arrows. Twist the excess wire slightly and cut it off with side cutters.


Using exactly the same principle, you need to make a second blank earring from beads.


Now attach two connecting rings to the top formed “flower” using pliers.


And the final stage. Earrings must be attached to the earrings. Pliers will also help you do this.


These earrings are made from beads with your own hands, and you can safely wear them with a beautiful evening dress. They look great, even though they are ordinary jewelry.

Step four. We seal the inside with genuine leather.

Gone are the days when making your own jewelry was considered bad taste and a lack of money. Many designers are developing jewelry collections that are much more expensive than gold and diamond jewelry.

So, what is costume jewelry?

According to the definition, costume jewelry (from French bijouterie)- decorations made from inexpensive materials. A variety of metals and alloys, transparent and colored glass, plastic, ceramics, wood and leather can be used for production. But high-quality jewelry can consist of expensive crystals, gold or silver plated. Such costume jewelry may be indistinguishable in appearance from real jewelry, but cost much more.

In more complex leather jewelry, real patterns are created or figures are cut out.

Natural materials (wood, stones, shells)

Wonderful summer decorations can be made from shells coated with varnish and strung on a thread.

Ordinary pebbles can also be used to create jewelry. Most often, a stone of an interesting shape is braided with wire to create a pendant:

And wooden jewelry has long become a classic:

Felt

Felt is an excellent material for creating jewelry. The decorations turn out very bright and truly sunny.

Today we will talk about assembling earrings from beads, which you can do with your own hands without any special experience or knowledge of any equipment. For such work, you will need a standard set of accessories: beads, earrings, pins, caps, connectors, etc. In the master class we will also show one of the ways to assemble earrings from beads.

To make stylish and beautiful earrings with your own hands, you don’t have to master any particular technique. It is enough to purchase a small supply of jewelry accessories and show a little imagination. Even in the simplest design, earrings made of beads can look elegant and fashionable. Beads can be made of different types of material and have a variety of shapes.

An example of DIY bead earrings, where only earrings and beads are used. Just choose your favorite bead or earring, then connect them using a pin loop and your laconic and delicate earrings are ready.

Cups and caps for beads will help to highlight the bead.

In the master class we will assemble earrings from beads, where the bead will consist of the beads themselves.

Accessories:

Beads 4mm - 24 pcs

Pins with loop 2 pcs.

Ear hooks 1 pair

Moth pendant 2 pcs

Monofilament

Tools: Scissors, side cutters, round nose pliers.

Assembly:

To work we will need the following weaving pattern:


We string three beads onto a monofilament thread. We draw the edges of the fishing line towards each other through the fourth bead. We tighten it.


Now we string one bead on each edge of the monofilament and draw the edges of the fishing line through one additional bead. We weave a cross pattern three times. Then add one bead again to each edge of the monofilament.


We pass the edges of the fishing line through the very first bead in the pattern, rolling our weaving into a ball, which will act as a finished bead.


Next, we collect the earrings. We connect the loop of the pin with the loop of the shvenza. We string one separate bead, a blank of beads, and again one bead onto the pin. We move the beads to the shwenze. We shorten the pin column with side cutters and, using round pliers, shape the edge of the pin into a loop, connecting it with a pendant in the shape of a moth.


The bead earrings are ready!


Stone chips or chipped stones are a varied and fairly affordable material with which you can make a lot of beautiful jewelry, including unusual beads. They are easy and quick to make and look very nice.

In order to make a bead from stone chips, we will need:

Chips of stones – 8 pcs.
- beads No. 10 to match the stone
- thin wire for beading (0.3-0.4 mm thick)
- rigid pin with loop
(master classes website website)
Operating procedure:

1. From a piece of thin wire 8-10 cm long, we make and shape a pin for chipping, as shown in the photo:




As you can see, a bead acts as the head of the pin here. You can, of course, use a ready-made nail pin for this purpose, but it has an ugly head, and the beads in this case will only decorate our future bead.

You can also take a pin with a beautiful cap, but again, you need to select it so that the cap decorates and does not distract attention from the stone - in this case, pins with a small ball instead of a cap are ideal.
(master classes website website)
For one future bead you need to put only 6 chips on the pins:


2. Then we put chips on a hard pin with a loop in the following order - first a chip without a pin, then 1 bead, then 6 chips on the pins we made, and finally another bead and a chip:
