Christmas tree made of beads

Needlewomen are inspired to weave beads every time of the year. For example, to create a festive atmosphere now, you can make a Christmas tree from beads. If you choose the right materials, the tree turns out to be very realistic. The combination of two shades of green creates smooth transitions from young tips to older needles. And the pearlescent shine allows the Christmas tree branches to sparkle slightly, as if in the cold.

Materials for work:
  • beads No. 8 (green translucent pearlescent) – 40 g;
  • beads No. 8 (transparent with a turquoise-dyed center) – 15 g;
  • wire – 7 m;
  • champagne cork;

Instructions for creating a Christmas tree


Cut off a section of wire. We make it of any length, but not very short. The main thing is that it is convenient to work. We collect beads. We alternate 15 pcs. transparent green, 5 pcs. turquoise and again 15 pcs. green.

We make a loop from a section of wire with beads. Leave about 7 cm on the edge. Secure the loop with several twists of the wire.

We place the same sequence of beads on the long end of the wire. We make a second loop.

We continue to form loops until the wire section ends. Here - 10 pieces came out. We form the same loops from the next section of wire. There should be at least 25 of them in total.

Then we reduce the size of the loops. We assemble them from a combination of bead shades 9 - 4 - 9. We also need about 20 such loops.

If the required number of loops has already been cast on, but the wire has not yet run out, you can continue to cast on loops, only of a smaller size. The following blanks will consist of a combination of 8 - 3 - 8. We make about a dozen of these loops.

We will assemble the Christmas tree on a wooden skewer. Stepping back 3 cm from the sharp edge, we wind the workpiece with the largest loops. We wrap the free end of the wire around the skewer.

We bend the loops from the “trunk” so that it is convenient to wrap the next element.

When the big ones run out, take slightly smaller loops.

We wrap the smallest ones last.

We make the “crown” for the beaded Christmas tree from several loops: 16-5 – 16 (1 piece); 12-5-12 (3 pcs.). Fold each one in half and press the halves tightly together. We cut the wooden skewer when all the loops are finished. We wrap the “crown” to the very edge. We place it strictly vertically.

We will make a “penniek” for the Christmas tree from a champagne cork. To do this, simply cut it in half with a sharp knife. We make the cut even so that the Christmas tree is stable.

Use an awl to make a hole in the cork hemp.

We insert a wooden skewer into it. You can do this before assembling the Christmas tree.

Or when it is completely ready.

All that remains is to straighten all the branches, giving the Christmas tree the desired shape.
