Bright necklace made of beads and cabochons. Master class from Lydia
For work, we need:
1. Natural formless bead, variscite.
2. Dark green epoxy cabochon - 2 pcs.
3. Rivoli drop faceted, pink - 4 pcs.
4. Czech beads in dark green color No. 10.
5. Czech beads of milk color No. 12.
6. Czech beads of orange color No. 10.
7. Czech beads number 10 in beige color.
8. Czech beads of light green color No. 10.
9. Czech beads of light green color, translucent No. 10.
10. Czech yellow beads No. 12.
11. Czech beads, yellow, translucent No. 10.
12. Beads of various sizes and shapes.
13. Acrylic beads in the shape of a flower - 3 pcs.
14. The basis for embroidery.
15. Genuine leather.
16. Jewelry pin, brass.
17. Toggle clasp, grape leaf.
18. Kapron thread, scissors, connecting rings, round-nose pliers and other improvised materials.
Let's get to work. I cut out the approximate shape of the necklace on paper and transferred it to the base for embroidery, but this is only to evenly distribute some elements, the shape of the necklace at the end will be asymmetric. In the center of the necklace, we glue our variscite bead to the base and sew it additionally for reliability.
Now we need to braid it with beads, we use beads of two colors: dark green and milk. We alternate in the following sequence: three dark green and one milky color. Now weave the mosaic until it reaches the edge of the bead. Since our bead is shapeless, we will fix it in a braid in another way. We bring the thread to the beginning of the mosaic row, pick up five green beads and step into the next bead. We walk in this way around the entire braid, but alternate 5, 0. Then we put the thread into the third bead of five and pick up one bead and weave it to the end, tighten our braid for strength, making sure that the bead fits tightly in it, we pass around once for reliability.
Then on two sides of the necklace, at equal distances from the center, glue resin cabochons and sheathe them with beads of beige and milk colors.
Above the cabochons, we place the rivoli and we trim them with green, translucent beads.
Then at the very top of our base we sew yellow beads and braid them with translucent yellow beads.
Around epoxy resin cabochons we pass two rows of light green beads.
To the right of the central element, we position the rivoli and sheathe them with beads. On the left we sew the beads of bright orange color and sheathe them with orange beads.
Now, with the help of white and orange beads, we need to embroider a kind of orange slices around the orange beads.
Between them we sew a bead in the shape of a flower.
Then we sew on dark brown beads around the epoxy cabochon. Under them, we sew two beads of bright green color and pass around them with yellow and dark green beads.
Around the yellow bead sheathed with beads, we pass two rows of milk-colored beads and one row of yellow, translucent. It turned out such a banana in the context. We fill the remaining space with beads of various colors and shapes.
To the right of the central element, we sheathed the rivoli, now we pass around them with one yellow bead.
As well as on the left side of the necklace, we sew dark brown beads around the epoxy resin cabochon.
Under them we have beads of bright orange color, we pass around them two rows of orange-colored beads and one row of dark green. We fill the remaining space with beads of various shapes and colors in the same way as on the left side.
Well, we have finished the main and most difficult stage of creating a necklace. Armed with scissors, carefully trim the excess. We need to sew a connecting ring to the edge of the embroidery, thanks to which we will attach the chain in the future.
Now glue the skin to the inside of the embroidery, I use the skin of a dark brown color. After the glue has completely dried, we cut off the excess skin and process the edge with beads of yellow, translucent color.
Now we take 10 mm acrylic jewelry pins and beads and with the help of round-nose pliers we form identical loops on both sides. We will need 10 such elements, 5 on each side. We connect them together using connecting rings, at the end we attach the toggle clasp.
Well, that’s it, our necklace is ready. You can experiment and create your own necklace, taking as a basis this master class.
Good luck with your work!
This necklace combines several weaving techniques. The first to catch the eye are many flat stones called coboshone. Since there is no regularity and exact order in this jewelry, it means that it is made in the free weaving technique - “freeform”. And the base of the necklace is already woven in the brick weaving technique, which you will get acquainted with thanks to the detailed and clear diagrams below.
What do you need for manufacturing:
- sketch (sketch) of the future necklace
- black square beads with a gasoline coating (you can use any other square or round)
- 8 cabochon stones
- pieces of soft skin
- button
- various dark beads to decorate the base of the necklace
- monofilament with a needle
Step by step photos and diagrams:
Beginning of work
Start by modeling your necklace. You can draw a finished sketch or draw your own. On a regular sheet of A4 paper, draw a rough pencil around the approximate arrangement of cabochons, circle the ones you have prepared. Get a composition that you really like, do not be lazy to redraw several times, because your efforts will certainly be justified by the result.
Cabochon Preparation
Take a piece of soft and not thick skin, attach a cabochon to it, circle it and cut it back from the edge of the circled line 3-4 mm. Bead the edge of the cut out piece of leather as shown in the diagram below. 1-3. Then attach the cabochon and begin to braid it with beads until it is "tightly seated". In this way, braid all the cabochons.
Using your drawn sketch of a necklace as a sample, connect the cabochons with brick weaving among themselves. In the diagram above, fig. 5-9 show the brick weaving technique for those who are not already familiar with it.
Instead of the usual clasp, this necklace uses a braided button, which clearly fits into the style and idea of \u200b\u200bthis jewelry. The button braiding pattern is below, fig. 10.
Sew a braided button on one side and a buttonhole of the right size on the other.
Work is not easy and requires a creative approach and considerable skills in beadwork, so if you are still not confident in your abilities, then it is worth practicing on something less complicated.
Photos taken from Bead & Button magazine.
Today, by popular demand, I am laying out a master class on creating the necklace “The Green Goddess”, which many have liked. I did this work back in 2012 and later repeated it in different colors, the blue version of the work called “Queen of the Road” was published in the June “Fashionable” 2014.
The decoration participated in several photo shoots, and there is even a small video with it and other decorations.
The master class turned out to be very detailed and focused on the initial level of skill. It is unlikely that it will be interesting to masters with experience, since the descriptions and diagrams in the journal are enough to understand the stages of its manufacture.
To work you will need:
- Cabochon 30 * 45mm - 1 pc.
- Swarovski Rivoli 14 mm - 2 pcs.
- Beads: Czech glass rondels 4 * 2mm - 26 pcs.; Czech long beads according to the type of patterns 17 mm long - 4 pcs.
- Japanese Toho seed beads No. 11 in gold color and No. 15 in gold and primary color.
- Japanese beads Miyuki Delica No. 11 of gold and primary color.
- Fabric that does not require edge treatment (cloth, felt, leatherette).
- Glue.
- Genuine Leather.
- Set of tools.
- Accessories: wire "with memory"; clasp carabiner; rings - 2 pcs.
Making cabochon.
Glue the cabochon on a piece of fabric that does not require edge treatment. Pre-degrease the cabochon with alcohol. Let the glue dry. According to scheme No. 1, we start casing the cabochon with Miyuki Delica No. 11 beads in the main color. The number of beads in a row should be a multiple of either two or four. Two for braiding the cabochon with a mosaic canvas, and four if we want to decorate the cabochon with beautiful cloves along the edge.
If you are a lover of schemes, we use a scheme, otherwise, we observe the process in the photo. The diagram shows the process of lining the cabochon in one bead, in the photo - in two, as you will not sew so fundamentally - this is a matter of personal preference. Depending on my mood and circumstances, I use both options.
Fasten the thread from the wrong side and bring the needle to the front side. We begin the first row of mosaic weaving. To do this, we collect two beads of the main color.
We make a stitch at a distance of two beads. From the wrong side, we bring the needle to the front side between the first and second dialed Delica beads.
The needle is drawn through the second bead. And then we collect two more beads.
Next, we sew a needle with a seam back, each time returning one bead back, and we collect two beads. Thus, it is necessary to sheathe the entire cabochon. Go through all the beads of the base row again and pull up the thread. From this, the beads in a row will align.
According to scheme No. 2 (forming the edge with teeth), weave the cabochon rim with "mosaic" weaving in circular rows with No. 11 Miyuki Delica beads and No. 15 Toho beads.
We proceed to the second row of the mosaic braid. We remove the thread from any Delica bead, we collect one more Delica bead and, having skipped one Delica of the base row, we introduce a needle into the third Delica bead. Tighten the thread.
Sew another bead, form a mosaic weave. So you need to go around the whole cabochon.
Similarly weave the second row. In each row, do not forget to return to the first bead of the row. The second row is ready.
The number of rows depends on the height of the cabochon, in this case we weave another one - the third row. We begin to weave a narrowing row of beads No. 15 Toho.
If we continue the mosaic weaving with beads No. 15 and weave another row, in which we insert one bead, skip the next one, we get a cabochon decorated with cloves.
We draw the needle with the thread through the braid to felt and fix the thread from the inside. Cut the excess felt as close to the base row beads as possible, but so as not to damage the thread. It remains to complete the closing row, and the cabochon is ready.
From plain paper, cut out a pendant template. The template should repeat the shape of the decoration, but be 2 mm smaller at the edges. Glue the template to the inside of the pendant, let the glue dry. A paper template gives some rigidity to the embroidered part of the product, it also aligns the embroidery if it was slightly deformed. In our case, you can not do this, since the embroidered part is small and only the cabochon is present in it, however, if your inside contains irregularities in the form of small knots and so on, or if the skin that you use is thin, it’s better not to skip this step .
Glue the leather / leatherette to the inside.
Let the glue dry and cut off the excess. The skin of the wrong layer should be 1-2 mm larger than the base on which the pendant is embroidered.
Next, we close the row with Japanese Toho beads No. 11 in gold color. We close the row in the Russian way according to the scheme No. 3, No. 4. The Russian method of sheathing the edge is a “buttonhole”, which includes beads.
We withdraw the needle from the wrong side to the front side.
We collect Toho bead No. 11 on the thread, stick the needle from the wrong side into the skin and felt (the needle passes through both layers through) - at a distance equal to the width of the bead. Draw the needle into the loop of the thread.
Tighten the thread. We continue to sheathe the cabochon with a “loop seam”, stringing each time one bead.
Our cabochon is ready.
If your cabochon is tall enough, you can decorate the cabochon braid with a pattern. For the simplest picture, you will need two kinds of affairs. Such a pattern is woven quite simply: we sew the cabochon with the main color, the number of beads when plating is multiple of four, the next row is a mosaic, alternate one bead of the primary color and one additional, the third row - the mosaic with the additional color, the fourth row of the mosaic alternate one bead of the main color and one additional , the arrangement of the beads is important here, the bead of the main color should stand above the bead of the additional color of the second row and vice versa, the fifth row is a mosaic of beads of the main color, the last row is narrowed e, form the teeth, one bead primary color, one skip.
We braid the rivoli.
Almost all wicker elements, I perform on double monofilament. In preparation for this MK, I refused monofilament, because it is not readable in the photo. We collect 36 Delica beads of the main color on the thread. We form a bead ring, tighten the thread. The next row we sew with mosaic beads No. 11 Delica.
The row is ready. We begin to weave a narrowing row with beads No. 15, alternating 1 raspberry bead and 1 gold bead.
The next row weave using only golden beads. In the last row, alternate 1 bead of gold and 1 bead pass, passing the thread through the beads of the lower row (the gold bead should be located above the raspberry bead of one of the previous rows), so we twisted the face of the basket for the rivoli. We pass through the beads of the row several times, tightening the thread.
In the photo, it turned out a little differently in terms of the location of the beads, but then in the finished product you will see that I corrected myself. In principle, both options have the right to life.
In the resulting “basket” we put rivoli. With beads No. 15 we pull the braid of the stone from the wrong side.
The second row weave, stitching with a mosaic 2 beads, one pass.
In the third row, we begin to form a picture on the inside of our rivoli. You may not do this while continuing to work in the same color, but I prefer it if the wrong side is also pretty, therefore, as a rule, if the wrong side is not sewn to the base, I use this method. So, in the next row, we flash, alternating 1 raspberry bead and one tanzanite color, the raspberry bead should be above the missed bead of the previous row. In the fourth row we use only raspberry beads.
In the fifth row we alternate one raspberry bead, one missed, raspberry bead, we place exactly above the third row tanzanite bead. The sixth row is pulled together with tanzanite beads, in total 6 pieces remain in the row.
Another row of mosaics. In the next row we alternate one tanzanite bead, one missed one, in the last row we tighten the wrong side with 3 tanzanite beads.
We loop the thread inside out, and at this stage we cut it. I don’t leave any ends. Later, when assembling this jewelry, we will use a separate thread. This is much more convenient, since you can cut the thread connecting the elements at any time and change their location.
Weave tubes.
Attention! Before weaving tubules, it is advisable to make a sketch of the pendant. Circle the braided cabochon on paper, circle the braided rivoli below the cabochon, draw tubes, forming the contours of the pendant. During weaving, determine the length of the tubes according to the sketch.
In our pendant, I use three different lengths of tubes. Two of them for a pendant of three and six pcs. respectively, and the third size of the tubes in the amount of 4 pcs. to decorate the memorial.
According to the scheme, weave three central tubules 24 beads high with Miyuki Delica No. 11 beads. We weave a number of mosaics.
The first row is ready. Then another row. We should get a strip 10 rows wide.
We connect the tube according to the scheme.
Six more tubes weave for 36 beads in height and four for 18 beads. The tubes can be either monophonic or with a pattern, it all depends on your final idea.
Bale.
According to the scheme weave bail for the pendant. We collect 4 delica beads on the thread and close in a circle.
In the next row between each bead insert two delica beads. In the next row above the two beads, insert two beads, and one between them. Thus, the bale is woven with mosaic weaving, using nbel.
We continue weaving by inserting two beads over two of the previous row, and between each one, thus weaving 7 rows, in each row the number of beads that you weave between unbleached pairs of beads increases and the bale gradually expands. The last row is decorated with beads of a different color. Literally in the third or fourth row, the bail itself will ask you to fold for the formation of the final form.
Bale is ready.
Assembly.
We lay out once again all the woven elements, forming a sketch of our future decoration. It is quite possible at this stage we will want to add or change something. We can arrange the cabochon horizontally, change the arrangement of the tubes or use a different form of cabochon. Everything is in our hands, we are not afraid to experiment, your product will benefit from this, and will become your exclusive unique creation.
We sew tubes together. In a similar way, we sewed a flat web, forming a tube. Do not forget to sew decorative beads at the ends of the tubes.
Sew the bail to the cabochon.
Sew one side of the bail to the beads of the closing edge. Sew the second side to the braid of the cabochon. Because the braid and the closing row are at different levels, when sewing the edges of the bail to the braid, we add two beads in the corner.
We interconnect the rivoli.
Rivoli connect with each other using two beads №11 "TOHO".
We attach the rivoli to the bottom of the cabochon.
We attach the tubes to the edges of the cabochon and rivoli in the same way. If necessary, if the tubes are located close enough to the cabochon, we can both use additional Toho No. 11 beads and attach the tubes without using beads.
We hang the pendant on the memorial wire “with memory”.
TIP! It’s better to buy a memorial wire with a margin of 1.5, since, as a rule, one turn to girth the neck is not enough, but if you take 3 turns, then this length may well be enough for two jewelry.
For convenience, we begin work with memorial wire from the middle: we collect the required number of beads, alternating them with Japanese Miyuki No. 11 beads, and woven tubes (we have 4 of them left).
TIP! When decorating a memorial wire, after hanging a pendant on it, it is best to place two large beads very close to the bail, which will be stop beads, and will not allow the pendant to mix on the memorial, so the pendant will always be dressed symmetrically on you.
We make out the ends of the pendant, fasten the carabiner clasp, a double ring and enjoy our creation!
This is how this decoration looks on me:
Using the knowledge gained, based on the presented elements, you can make not only a similar pendant, but also completely different types of pendants.
Enjoy your creativity!
Chic Egyptian Necklace
What could be more entertaining than needlework? In the process of creativity, we not only show our talent, but also become better and kinder. Making jewelry with your own hands is the best way to diversify a fashionable image, make it more original and stylish.
A favorite material for making all kinds of jewelry is beads. Matte or mother-of-pearl, classic or fancy shapes, sparkling beads in skillful hands turn into exclusive luxurious beads, pendants, bracelets and necklaces. We offer you to plunge into the world of creative experiments by making some original necklaces of beads and stones with your own hands.
Materials for making jewelry
The basis for success in needlework is the correct selection of materials for work. To make jewelry from beads and stones with your own hands you will need:
- Beads. As a rule, to make this or that jewelry, the craftswoman selects a pattern that clearly demonstrates the entire step-by-step weaving algorithm. To make the material ideally suited for a particular product, you must follow the advice of experienced craftsmen. First of all, beads must be selected in shape, color, which are indicated in the schemes, do not forget about the quality, reputation of the manufacturer.
The size of any beads is always determined by the number on the package. Beginners should know: the smaller the number, the larger the size of the beads.
On the shelves you can find materials made of glass, plastic, bone. The best tandem of practicality, durability and aesthetics combines glass beads.
- Cabochons. Cabochons are needed to make hand made jewelry made from beads and stones. Translated, the word means “head”, such a stone really resembles the crown of the head in shape. It can have a very different shape, color, structure, but always a smooth surface. Beautiful stone ovals or circles are convex on one side and flat on the other, so that the decorative element is easily attached to the base. When choosing cabochons to create hand made jewelry, special attention should be paid to the convex part of the stone: there should be no cracks, irregularities or nicks on the surface.
Natural Stone Cabochons - The basis of the decoration. The classic basis of weaving is fishing line. For beginners, you can use a thin wire, it will help to simulate the shape of the product. To create a necklace of beads and cabochons, leather or fabric is used as the basis. The most profitable such jewelry look on a luxurious velvet or satin fabric.
The main rule for choosing materials for needlework is a combination of high quality, aesthetic harmony and an original solution.
Variety of beads Do it yourself jewelry
It is believed that it is beautiful accessories that give a woman confidence, a unique charm and emphasize femininity. We offer you to make some exclusive jewelry from beads and natural stones with your own hands.
Bright kit Master class on embroidery of the original necklace
As a rule, necklaces or bracelets where natural stones and beads are combined are made using the embroidery technique. We offer you to make a great accessory with your own hands. To work, you need beads, a piece of natural or eco-leather, several cabochons, beautiful faceted beads of various shapes in tone, a strass ribbon.
Turquoise bracelet Getting started:
- On the skin flap we draw a line - the center of the product. Glue the central stone in the middle, there should be enough space on the sides to lay other elements.
- We sheathe the central element with beads stringing three beads each. You should get an even number of beads. We braid the stone in a mosaic way: string one bead, threading through one. To fix the stone, add smaller beads.
- On a flap of skin, slightly higher than the main element, glue a smaller jasper cabochon, similarly weave it with beads. Next, we place the remaining cabochons and braid each with beads.
When all the elements are ready, we do the initial calculation of the decoration details on a sheet of paper. We circle along the contour and cut it out, stepping back a few millimeters from the line inward.
Necklace shape on paper - Glue paper to each blank, this technique will give the product density and help maintain the shape of the necklace. Next, we glue all the details to the flap of genuine leather and cut it out.
- To make the edges look neat, we sew along the contour each blank with beads to match the product. We lay out the parts again, sew them together. At the bottom you can make a fringe from beads, embroider the decoration stand with beads, and fasten the lock to the edge.
A beautiful necklace in the style of the incomparable Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska, the beloved of the powerful Sultan Suleiman, is ready. In the same way, you can create a whole collection of jewelry by combining materials, experimenting with color and shape of products.
Jade necklace Delicate pendant
Resourceful craftswomen and fashionistas manage to make luxurious jewelry for all occasions from the most simple and budget materials. To change your look every day, it’s enough to make several pendants that can be hung on a chain, leather lace or a bead cord. We offer a basic lesson on creating a delicate pendant.
Pink pendant with pearls The algorithm is as follows:
- We will prepare for work beads in soft pink and cream color, cabochon rhodochrosite, quartz and agate, pearl beads, several rivols. For the foundation, you need a piece of fabric and genuine leather.
- We make the marking of the decoration, in the center we glue the large cabochon and sheathe it with beads in several rows. The last row is lined with golden beads, like a precious setting of natural stone.
- We lay the rivols below the cabochon, braid with beads, lay out and decorate the remaining elements of the pendant similarly to the scheme.
- When all the elements are glued and trimmed with beads, we cut out the blank, decorate the edges with pearl beads. We will decorate the lower part of the pendant with a fringe of beads, weave a loop of beads on top, or simply insert a metal ring. Such a pendant looks equally elegant on a satin ribbon, chain or bundle of beads.
DIY cabochon braiding with beads (photos and video)
The needlewomen who are keen on beadwork, having a burning desire to create a unique jewelry using not only beads, but also a beautiful cabochon, are faced with the problem of how to braid it. To do this is quite simple and, as always when working with beads, very nice. A cabochon is a stone with a smoothly polished surface; its shape can be different. This master class will tell you in detail about how to braid a cabochon and, in addition, consider such an interesting version of beadwork as a bead from beads. Having mastered the methods of braiding, you can make brooches, earrings, necklaces, hairpins and much more. On the Internet there are a variety of photos of such products. DIY jewelry will be exclusive and will certainly draw your attention. 
Cabochon braiding with a snake chain
There are a variety of methods for making a bead rim for a cabochon. In this training material, we will consider the most simple and at the same time very effective way. Braiding with a snake chain is suitable for cabochons of various shapes and will look good in any jewelry. After you master this technique, you will probably want to braid with beads yet another beautiful polished stone. To verify this, see the photo of such a product. 
To master this technique you will need the following materials: beads of two matching colors and suitable for cabochon, beads (can be replaced with large beads), monofilament, bead needle and the cabochon itself.
Braiding should begin with weaving the first row of the chain. To do this, leaving 90 cm of monofilament free, weave a chain according to this principle: having strung three beads, we draw the thread through the first two so that we get a triangle of three beads. After we string two more beads and draw the thread through the nearest bead of the first triangle and the free bead that follows it. The result is two triangles looking in different directions. By this principle, the whole chain is woven, which along the length should be equal to the circumference of the cabochon. The diagram clearly shows how to do this. The diagram also shows how to connect a chain in a circle. 
It is important to remember that if beads are used for decoration, then there should be an even number of triangles. When the main chain is ready and connected in a circle, you will need to attach another one to it. Attach it to the top edge of the chain. Describing this is quite difficult, and so you better turn to the diagram right away. 
When the second chain is ready, you need to add beads of a different color, which should be attached between the upper beads. After that, it is necessary to tighten the edge of the frame. For the best effect, you should go monofilament 2-3 times. Having received this blank of the frame, you must place the cabochon in it so that its convex side looks at the screed.
The master class does not end there. You still need to make the second side of the bead braid. With this technique, two-sided braiding. To do this, using the remaining free end of the monofilament, you should weave beads of the second color, as well as on the upper edge of the braid. When all the beads are in place, the edge is tightly tightened according to the same principle as the top. As a result, the stone should sit very tightly in its bead rim, not crawl and not fly out. In this simple way, you can easily braid a cabochon of any shape and size. For inspiration and development of designs for braiding, you can always refer to the photo. Braiding cabochons allows you to create your own unique collection of jewelry.
Photo master class of cabochon braiding with beads
This braiding method is quite simple and fast and requires additional tightening of the screed: 
Beaded cabochon
For a beautiful frame of stone, especially in the manufacture of brooches, it is good to sheathe it with beads. This master class will certainly help you learn this technique. You will need: cabochon, beads, felt, glue and monofilament.
To begin with, you will need to glue the stone very carefully to a small piece of felt, but not cut it out. When the glue has dried, you can start lining. For this, a needle with monofilament is removed from the inside at the edge of the cabochon. After stringing two beads and, stepping back a distance sufficient to lay the beads, we again withdraw the needle to the inside. Sending the needle again to the front side, it must be pierced so that it comes out between the first two beads. Then we stretch the thread through the right bead and again string two beads that will also be attached. Thus, you should sheathe the entire circumference of your cabochon. 
When the first row is finished, we again pull the needle to the front side and start braiding with small beads. This is done almost the same as when sheathing, but small beads are attached not to the fabric, but to the bottom row of beads. In this case, the needle is each time threaded through the previous bead, and then carried forward through the 5 lower beads. So the second row is done. The number of rows may be more. 
In this way, it is very good to sheathe a cabochon for brooches or earrings. Or maybe you want to make a whole set. To pick up the design of a future product, you should turn to the photo.
Beaded Braided Beads
Beads are often needed for jewelry, and they should not be knocked out of the style of the product. Therefore, you need to use beads from beads, as well as ordinary ones that can be braided with beads. It is not very difficult and very exciting. Our master class will teach you an interesting mosaic technique for braiding beads.
Braiding beads should begin with weaving the bottom. To do this, 9 beads are gathered on a string, and the tenth closes them. We tie the ends of the thread. As a result, we get a ring. 
Then, we string two beads and sew into the second bead from the needle of the previous chain. We knit in a circle. in the middle of each of the two beads, we sew on an additional one. We should form a kind of asterisk. 
Next, repeat the previous steps and try on the resulting workpiece. 
Five corners marked with blue lines in the photo will be expanders. each subsequent such expanding element must be created above the former. 
We continue to flash the next 2 rows with weaving with mosaic weaving. We try on our bead again and, if necessary, continue the expansion, adding one more bead in the middle of the beads of the previous row and two beads above the corners. Next, we sew a number of mosaics. The expansion process is now complete. 
Now we extend the weaving without expanding into six rows. The final row must be completed twice. 
It remains to weave another half in the same way and sew both halves so that the extensions of the top fall between the extensions of the bottom. Tighten the braid tight so that there are no protruding corners. Such bead beads will be perfect in jewelry. 
In more detail this technique can be studied on a photo or video materials.
We hope this master class will be useful to you, and you can easily braid a bead or cabochon.
