Having learned how to make beaded grapes with beads, you will stop puzzling over how to complete a gift for friends. Such a cute thing can serve as a keychain or become earrings. But you can learn how to create even a whole sculpture that will decorate the room.

Earrings

Beaded grapes is an elegant accessory, suitable even for an evening out. Pair it with a little black dress and you'll shine at any event!

Materials:

• 42 red or purple round glass beads.
• Two acrylic sheets.
• 42 golden head pins.
• 12 22 gauge gold rings.
• 1 pair of earring hooks.
• Pliers.

You can change the colors and shapes of blanks.

Progress:

1. Place beads on pin heads.



2. Using pliers, bend the tip of the pin sticking out of the bead at a right angle. Rotate the tool to twist the pin, then bend it back a little (a hook is formed). Finally bend the tip to the exitbead pins. The result is a loop.
3. Make this loop on each bead.
4. Assembly of parts. Each earring has 5 rings, on which you need to fit 21 beads. There are 4 beads on the first ring, 8 on the second, 4 on the third and fourth, and 1 on the last.
5. Insert leaves into rings.
6. Attach all parts to the base.

You can also create a pendant using this method, then you will get a whole set.

Earrings. The second way

Earrings "Grapes" from beads are created in a different way, which requires weaving skills. Need to take:

• Large purple beads.
• Small green and white beads.
• Wire.
• Hooks for earrings.
• Pliers.

What to do:

1. Cut 60 centimeters of wire, string 29 green beads on it.
2. Add a purple bead and four more green beads.
3. Pass the wire through the fifth and sixth beads from the large bead.
4. String two green, one purple and one green beads.
5. Pass the wire through all the new beads, grabbing two more from the warp.
6. Repeat this seven times.
7. And at the end, do the same twice, but replace the purple beads with small white ones.
8. Add two beads and thread the wire through the very first bead. It should form a loop.
9. Attach the earring hook.

Now you have a beautiful accessory.

Vine bush. Leaves

By making grapes from beads, you can decorate a thick branch. It will turn out a miniature berry bush, which is not a shame to put on a shelf. And from afar, the craft looks like a real grapevine. What you need to create:

• Green and purple beads.
• Wire with a diameter of 0.3 and 1.0 millimeters.
• Green thread or fabric.
• Thick branch.
• Scissors.

What to do:

1. Take a wire with a diameter of 0.3 mm and put three green beads on it. They should have the same amount of wire on either side.
2. Pass the ends of the wire through opposite beads, tighten.
3. Put two beads on the left end, one on the right end. Pass both ends through.
4. Continue to weave with the same technique until the fifth row, gradually increasing the number of beads by one.
5. After the fifth row, begin to gradually narrow. There should be nine rows in total.
6. Start to weave the second part of the leaf, but, starting from the point of narrowing, weave the first part. Do the same with the third part.
7. Twist the remaining ends of the wire.
8. We need about 40 of these leaves.

Vine bush. Grapes

Now start learning how to weave beaded grapes with beads. What to do:

1. Put four beads on a wire with a diameter of 0.3 mm. Pass both ends of the wire through the end bead. It turned out a cross.
2. Place one bead on the left end, onright two. Pass the left end through the extreme bead of the right. Another cross is ready.
3. There should be four crosses in total.
4. When you're done, thread the left end of the wire through the very first bead. Do the same with the right end. The whole weave was bent in half. Twist the wire.
5. Make 14 of these pieces.
6. Collect the bunch. To do this, take one part and screw four more a little higher above it, six a little higher, and then four again.



7. To make 35 bunches.

Vine bush. Assembly

To collect grapes from beads with beads, you need:

1. Create branches. To do this, take a wire with a diameter of 1 millimeter and cut 9 parts from it. They can be of different sizes.
2. Wrap each with green thread or cloth.
3. Attach finished parts to the branch. One branch should have four bunches and five leaves.
4. When finished, tie everything to a thick branch.
5. Glue to a piece of wood.

The sculpture "Grapes from beads" has turned out. The master class told in detail about all the stages of creation.
