At today's master class, we will become "jewelers" and create a pendant in antique style from beads.







Pendant embroidered with beads - necessary materials:




  • 7 g of Czech gray beads (size 11);


  • 3 grams of Czech silver and black beads (size 11);


  • a small cabochon agate (or any other dark stone) oval, the length of which is 27 mm, and the width is 17 mm;


  • a piece of ribbon with strasses about 9 cm long;


  • 16 pieces of Czech faceted beads-rondel with a diameter of 3 mm;


  • a piece of the base for embroidery with beads;


  • the same size piece of leather for the lining of the pendant;


  • bead needle;


  • nail scissors;


  • line or monofilament 0.15 mm for processing the edge of the product;


  • any good glue that glues the skin.





The dimensions of the cabochon are given conditionally, you can takesuch a stone that you will like. The basis for embroidery can be either a special fabric, or felt, or non-woven, glued in several layers.



Step-by-step instruction:




  1. First of all, we glue the cabochon to the base. After the glue dries, we begin to embroider. First we sew one gray bead, then under the bottom of the product we return to the starting point, we go through it again and string the second bead.


  2. We return again, we deduce a needle between the first and second beads, we pass through the second and we string the third.


  3. And so we continue, until we are around the whole circlepebble. After this, the second row is "overbuilt" over the base row. We leave from any aperture of a bead of the first row, we type one more of the same color, and again we return to the same hole. So we wrapped the entire cabochon.


  4. Now pass the needle through the whole beads of the second row and tighten the braid. Tighten tightly, but carefully, so as not to tear the thread. Now our stone is in a reliable "frame" that will not let it fall out.


  5. To make your own hands a beautiful embroidered bead of beads, you need to add a little shine. We will sew a ribbon with rhinestones. First, just attach it with a few stitches. Then we move the second strasik as close as possible to the first one and again attach it with a few stitches. In the same way we deal with all the others. It should look like this: The first and last crystals can be glued to the base a little, but you can not do this if they keep straight.


  6. Carefully cut out our embroidery and pasteskin for the wrong side. After the glue dries, we trim the edge of the pendant with a stitch. To do this, we leave the front side, dial 2 beads, go back to the front, go out from the wrong side and go through the second bead. Then add only one bead. It is necessary to calculate so that the amount of beads in the loop seam is a multiple of three + 1 piece. This we need for weaving "denticles". This looks like an almost ready embroidered pendant:


  7. It remains only to weave "denticles". To do this, go out of any hole in the bead of the stitch and thread on the needle a bead-rondel and two gray beads. We return with a needle through the rondel and the stitch suture. Again we leave from the next bead of a suture-basis and we sew one silvery. We go in the third bead. We leave from the fourth and again we string the rondel.


  8. Next, we need to make a loop to hangpendant on the chain. To do this, in the middle of a narrow part of the billet instead of one silver bead string 5 gray and pass the needle not to the next one, but skipping one bead, the third in a row.


  9. After the whole pendant is trimmed with rondles,proceed to the last stage. We leave from any silvery bead, we type two gray ones and enter one of the gray, woven to the top of the rondel. We type one black and enter the second bead from the top of the rondel. We collect two more gray beads and again we enter the next silvery bead.



Now we shave a strip of mosaic weave. Width - 2 rows, length - 10. We pass the strip into the left loop.



Our embroidered bead, made by our own hands, is ready!
