Masterly hairstyles, unusual outfits and, of course, many variations on the theme of the bouquet are used. Artificial bouquets at weddings are no longer uncommon, but more recently a beaded bridal bouquet to match the outfit has come into fashion.

Popular brands

Brands of expensive jewelry today are actively developing, making not only attractiveness, but also high quality of products a priority. One of the famous brands of Danish jewelry is the Pilgrim brand. The jewelry alloy here is coated with gold and silver and decorated with Swarovski rhinestones. Richly decorated bracelets and earrings are worthy of the most luxurious bride.

The Danish world-famous brand Pandora has never claimed to produce classic jewelry for brides. However, more and more often you can see modern girls wearing these jewelry at their own wedding, because the brand’s philosophy is to preserve unforgettable moments, strung on the chain of life in the form of charm balls. Isn’t it very symbolic for one of the most reverent and tender days in life? Charms in the form of flowers, hearts, and rings characterize young and bright brides.

Back in 1891, Daniel Swarovski set out to create a “diamond for everyone,” and irresistible brides still shine in his products. Each piece in the collection is as if created for a wedding celebration; the amazingly cut crystals are available in a variety of colors, making them suitable for any color scheme of the dress. Necklaces with gilded fringe and crystals look luxurious in the latest collection. A necklace with two hearts, identifying eternal love, looks stylish and sophisticated. Swarovski's collections are full of luxury, embodying discreet and elegant designs in the Tiffany style.

An equally popular Russian brand is Jenavi. The brand's jewelry is distinguished by intricate patterns and curls, non-standard shapes, rhinestones and crystals. Many collections find their buyers in brides of all ages.

The country that has long produced costume jewelry is the Czech Republic, because it was there that glass production was founded. Today, exquisite Czech jewelry is made from high-quality alloys and decorated with artificial pearls of Ajvori color, white and even black. A prominent representative of Czech quality is the brand with a rich history, Jablonex. The company's earrings and necklaces are decorated not only with Swarovski crystals, which are popular today, but also with Czech rhinestones and beads.

The fine jewelry brand Nomination opens its collections to connoisseurs of Italian quality. Producing products in sporty, classic and fashion styles, the company is sensitive to fashion trends, skillfully combining materials and shades of precious and semi-precious stones. Nomination is not afraid of such bright colors in classic jewelry as emerald, violet and heavenly.

Brides planning a wedding in a casual or nautical style will appreciate the lightness and elegance of Israeli Amaro jewelry. Elements of wild nature, such as corals and shells, become an interesting accent in the collections. Designers don’t forget about Swarovski crystals either.

In the Amaro collections you won’t see the usual classics for brides, however, the originality and uniqueness of each piece of jewelry never ceases to attract their attention

Costume jewelry from Spain is represented by the increasingly popular brand UNOde50 in Russia. Each product is handmade from silver-plated metal. Having such a decoration, you can safely declare its uniqueness, because no machine technology is used here. Most jewelry has a slightly sloping and floating shape, which is certainly a striking touch for any bright and modern bride.

Specifics of selecting compositions for the style of celebration

Every bride should know these rules:

• the bouquet should complement the dress, and not compete with it. A lush dress, richly decorated with beads, should be complemented by a modest bouquet. Conversely, a formal dress can be complemented with a bouquet of large mother-of-pearl beads;
• carefully select the shape of the bouquet. Ask the florist to show you all the options, even the most incredible ones;
• Pay special attention to the handle of the bouquet. Braid it with satin ribbons in the same color as the overall holiday color. Make sure the handle is not too big;
• The aroma of flowers is an important component of the entire bouquet. You can drop a drop of your favorite perfume on artificial flowers.

Also, to create a style, it is important to know the trends of 2019:

• small bouquet;
• coral shades;
• ombre effect;
• garden style;
• ears of corn and grass;
• mono bouquets;
• one color accent.

All this can be realized with the help of beads and beads.

Necklace "Charm"

To work you will need:

• silver and black beads;
• pearls 3 mm and 6 mm;
• silver bugles;
• clasp.

Weave a figure eight chain about 46 cm with an odd number of links.

Pull the needle out from the bottom edge of the first link from the central bead. Collect 1 glass bead, 1 bead, 1 glass bead, and place it in the central bead of the third link. Weave the entire weave in this way. Complete 3 more rows, but without missing links.

Weaving pattern:

Sew flowers in the center of the necklace, add 2 rows of braiding.

For flowers, collect 10 beads, connect them into a ring, and secure. Pass a needle through the first bead and pick up 3 white, 2 silver, 3 white, 2 silver, 3 white, 2 silver, 3 white beads. Pass through the third bead. Finish the first row like this. There is 1 bead in the diagram:

Start the second row with bead 2: 2 white, 2 silver, 2 white, 2 silver, 2 white, 2 silver, 2 white.

Sew the flower to the necklace and secure a pearl in the center. Make other flowers in the same way. Attach the clasp.

How to make a wedding bouquet from beads with your own hands

A DIY beaded wedding bouquet is an original idea for a wedding. It can be made entirely of shimmering beads and dazzle everyone with its beauty.

To do this you need:

• make a base from half a foam sphere about 12 cm in size;
• insert three thin chopsticks into the middle of the sphere (sushi chopsticks are suitable);
• fix the joints with glue;
• cover the sphere with white organza (you can put an opaque fabric underneath);
• fix the organza at the base and smooth out the folds;
• also fix the fabric at the base of the handle and decorate it;
• wrap the ends and glue to the base of the handle;
• singe the protruding threads with a lighter;
• wrap the handle with satin ribbon and thread with beads;
• cut the thread with beads about 3 meters and fold it in half until you get a bunch;
• wrap the middle of the bundle with ribbon and tie a bow;
• make about 40 such bundles;
• glue the bunches to the base of the bouquet at a distance of 2-3 cm from each other;
• fill the base completely.

Big earrings

The first proposed version of the product, which is simple in implementation, consists of threads assembled with beads. However, if you use unusual color combinations, add bugles or beads, you can realize all your most original ideas and end up with a unique decoration.

Tools and material you will need.

We string 2 glass beads onto a thread so that one end of the thread remains short. We pass through them again, thereby creating a rectangle. Leave one end of the thread and work with a long piece. We string glass beads onto it, go through the previous one and again into the one we just collected.

And so on for four more bugles.

We put two beads on the needle and pass the thread through the fastening of the second and third bugles. Then we pierce the second of the collected beads again. And thus we attach four more beads, passing each one twice.

This is how four more rows are knitted, each of which has one less bead. Let's form a triangle.

We form a loop for the ear wire. And through the outer bead and side glass bead we move to the opposite side to create a fringe.

The first strand of fringe consists of five beads, bugles and eight more beads. We secure what we have collected by going back through ten beads and glass beads.

We come to the next thread through the second glass bead of the top. The set is almost the same as the first one, however, we add two beads to the initial 5 beads. And so on two more threads with the addition of two beads at the beginning.

Then the three final threads go in descending order, two beads at a time.

These earrings will decorate an evening outfit.

Monochrome geometric ones are suitable for an everyday look.

As is clear from the article, beaded jewelry is not something unattainable and difficult. Any needlewoman, regardless of age and level of skill, can master making this or that jewelry; she just needs to put in a little effort and patience.

What will you need?

Color selection

Beads come in different colors and shades. Therefore, you can realize any idea using this material.

A wedding is a romantic event, so it’s worth thinking about flowers such as:

• pink;
• white;
• pearl;
• pearl;
• beige;
• blue;
• lilac;
• silver;
• gold.

The following colors and coatings are suitable for a bright accent bouquet:

• rainbow;
• petrol;
• gold;
• blue;
• violet;
• red;
• glossy;
• yellow.

Material stock

For a wedding bouquet you will not need much material. A bouquet of beads is easy to make at home.

To do this, prepare in advance:

• beads of the desired shades;
• beads with the required coating;
• foam base;
• satin ribbons;
• hot glue;
• threads;
• fishing line;
• scissors.

Holiday necklace

Materials:

• white beads No. 10-11;
• clear crystals;

Weave a chain of suitable length, as in diagram 1-2:

Weave exactly the same one to the first chain without displacing the fragments, weaving 13 pearls one at a time in the right places (Diagram 4).

Weave a new row with 12 offset crystals to the 12 central fragments (schemes 3-4). Reduce each next row by 1 fragment on each side. Alternate crystals and pearls through the row; when decreasing the row, reduce their number by 1. As a result, the decorative part should be: 13 pearls, 12 crystals, 11 pearls, 10 crystals, 9 pearls, 8 crystals, 7 pearls, 6 crystals, 5 pearls , 4 crystals, 3 pearls, 2 crystals, 1 pearl, 1 crystal.

Nuances and techniques of beading

Important points in creating a bouquet are:

• harmony of colors;
• combination of bouquet style with dress style;
• correct selection of bead sizes;
• selection of fishing line to match the color of the bouquet.

To create flowers, the French weaving technique is most often used. This is a very simple technique that even a beginner can handle. The rows are created in the form of arcs, which is why this method is sometimes called arc weaving.

The flowers turn out dense and neat. Each petal is created separately, further creating a vibrant composition.

For a car

To decorate your car, you can use a combination of different textures and materials. Ribbons, organza, and satin are often used. The car is decorated with flowers, bows, hearts, rings, and balls.

An unusual solution could be painting the car. To do this, you can draw any picture, make any inscription. A large assortment of easily washable paints allows you to paint even the entire car if desired. The only drawback is that the paint is easily washed off by rain. Therefore, this design option is only suitable for good weather. If you don't know how to draw, a set of stencils will help. You can make them yourself. All you need to do is print the design on plain paper, glue it onto cardboard and cut it out along the outline.

How to assemble and record a composition?

Assembling a bouquet is the most magical stage of creation. But this is also the most crucial moment.

Be sure to do everything carefully and firmly:

• start collecting from the middle - it should be the most beautiful and lush;
• take turns attaching one flower at a time to the main flower;
• all “legs” should twist with each other from below;
• when all the flowers have found their place, wrap the formed stem with additional wire;
• to hide the wire, wrap the leg with ribbon to match the bouquet;
• trim the ends with a lighter;
• glue the ends to the base using hot glue.

Fashionable bracelets

First of all, these are all kinds of baubles, different in width and color.

For example, these delicate flowers/daisies.

If you want a slightly simpler option, then you should choose the next one.

An openwork decoration will decorate any hand.

A wide bracelet seems complicated only in appearance, but the diagram shows that the implementation is very simple.

Bracelets are woven not only by hand, but it is also possible to use a homemade machine or a machine purchased at the appropriate store. This technique helps create dense knitting with various images, patterns, names, etc.

You can see how to make the machine yourself in the video below.

Master classes on making bouquets

You can add a variety of flowers to the bouquet. We'll show you a few designs for inspiration.

Tulips

Execution steps:

2. Fold the short part and twist the long one around it. Add 6 light beads first, then 7 dark beads.
3. Continue stringing beads until you have 7 rows from the center on both sides. There should always be 6 light ones, and as many dark ones as needed for twisting.
4. In this way, make three petals that will be inside the tulip.
5. Make the outer petals larger and darker in color.
6. Make stamens from dark beads.
7. Make a stem out of wire and attach a flower to it.

Calla lilies

Execution steps:

1. You should start with the base of the flower. To do this, you need to weave in three axes, since the flower is very large. You need to string arcs around them.
2. Take three wires, wrap them with a fourth and start weaving arcs.
3. Make 35 full rotations around the axes until the petal reaches the desired size.
4. Using thick wire and yellow beads, make a stamen.

Purple and yellow colors for a spring wedding

In drawing lessons we were taught how to combine colors. That's when we learned that purple and yellow are a perfect pair. Therefore, a bouquet of flowers of these shades will look incredibly beautiful.

It will create the effect:

• Have a good mood;
• positive;
• spring mood;
• joy;
• romance;
• originality.

The bouquet can consist of the following flowers:

• cornflowers;
• forget-me-nots;
• tulips;
• chamomile;
• roses;
• lilies;
• irises;
• sunflowers.

Wedding in the color of the apple orchard

The apple tree blooms with incredibly delicate flowers. Therefore, it is impossible not to take advantage of such beauty. Moreover, garden style is a trend for 2019. A Marsala wedding will not leave anyone indifferent. Initially, this is an application for a romantic and magical evening.

You can also add apples made from beads to the bouquet. Then it will become a bright accent in the image of the bride.

Pearl bobby pins

DIY hair decorations made from beads and wire are very easy to make using bobby pins. Pearl bobby pins can be used for daily styling separately or in combination with other hair decorations. You need to take a piece of wire, fasten it at the beginning of the bobby pin, string a bead, twist the wire around the top of the hairpin, tighten it and repeat the operation until the end of the bobby pin.

Then secure the end of the wire, bite it off and you can tuck the end of the wire into the last bead. Silver wire will not be noticeable against the background of pearls. In the same way, you can make beads on legs by twisting each one around its axis several times. The result will be a more voluminous decoration.

Wedding gold jewelry: ring sets

• When choosing wedding rings, immediately decide on their desired design. Wedding rings come in two types: decorated and classic. Many newlyweds choose classic models. This is due to the fact that a wedding ring, according to tradition, should not have unnecessary elements
• If it is smooth, then married life will be “smooth.” In addition, the cost of such products depends only on the price of a gram of gold; there is no extra charge due to inserts or any processing work
• Decorated products are diamond cut, any engraving or complemented with some stones. When choosing such rings, evaluate their comfort; they should not get caught on clothing parts and cause you discomfort.
• Spouses' rings do not have to be exactly alike. If you don't agree on the ideal rings, choose ones that have similar designs.
• Decide on the desired width of the rings. Narrow (2 to 4 mm) or fairly wide (6 to 8 mm) rings on long and thin fingers look impressive. If your fingers are thick or short, choose rings with a width of 4-6 mm. For fingers of medium length, products with a width of 2 to 6 mm are most suitable. It is advisable for men to buy rings with a width of 4 to 8 mm

Simple weaving pattern

To create beaded jewelry, use patterns, which are a great guide to the art of weaving.

The simplest scheme is rings, which is recommended for beginners.

1. Eight beads need to be strung on a fishing line or thread, after which the thread is folded into a ring and the end of the fishing line is passed through the first and sixth beads.
2. Six beads are put on, and the algorithm of the first step is repeated again.
3. From such rings you need to weave a product of suitable length.

The beads need to be arranged in advance into convenient containers to make it easier to pick them up with a needle. Using all kinds of weaving patterns, you can use any option and create your own unique decoration that will be unique and stylish.
