How many people are so much a hobby. Each person has some favorite and very interesting only for him occupation. Some people like to collect stamps, coins and bills, looking for hours through the magnifying glass with hardly noticeable differences. The latter can not live without green plants and flowers, turning their dwelling into a greenhouse. And some adore investing a part of their soul in needlework, in particular - in weaving bracelets. Bijouterie and various accessories will always be in vogue, so it is not surprising that a huge number of both women and men, resort to decorating their body with various manual and factory decorations.

Currently, there is a huge amount of materials to create truly stunning products. Weaving bracelets, necklaces, belts and other accessories is one of the most popular hobby among needlewomen. So, you can try your hand at creating a small but nice decoration made of beads. For example, in the style of the braided weave. To do this, you need a source material of several colors, a line or thread, thin needles and a little patience.

At the first stage it will be necessary to create a chain of beaded crosses. To do this, thread the needles from both ends on the fishing line. Then we collect 4 beads from the beginning. The last, the last bead is pierced once more, so that a cross is formed.

After that, on each of the needles to enter another bead, and the third - the general - will close the second element of the chain.

And so continue to reach the required length. This cross chain is the core of the bracelet. To her will be joined on the sides of other elements. We should pay attention to the fact that such braiding of bracelets from beads - the occupation is a little laborious and requires great attention.

Remember that if you want this accessory to fit, the length of the chain should be about 1.3-1.5 the length of the wrist circumference. This is explained simply - weaving bracelets in a twisted technique reduces the original length, so the initially chosen proportions may turn out to be incorrect.

At the second stage additional beads are added to the created chain from the sides. They can be either similar or a different color. In the master class, the color of the pearl is chosen. To create the first part of the second chain on the left (upper) line string three beads, and on the right (bottom) - one. Then connect them.

After that, the needle that was in the right hand passes into the next bead of the previous chain and one bead is threaded onto it, and two beads are threaded onto the second line. Then the link closes.

Thus we continue the weaving to the end of the chain. In a similar way, we formulate its second side as well.

After the braiding of the cross chain is completed, you need to connect the right side to the left. To do this, a line is passed to the upper beads of one and the second side. Then, on one of the needles, a bead is sewn, and the second needle passes through it, connecting the decoration into a single whole.

So it is necessary to do with each bead from two sides. Due to the fact that on the lateral faces of the beads is twice as large as on the main chain, the product is twisted in a spiral. Weave bracelets of this type are also called twisted braids. In the end, you should get this sample.

To it we attach a lock and an accessory is ready.

Weaving bracelets from ribbons, beads, thread mulina or silk cords - the imagination of needlewomen has no limit, because you can create a product from anything. The most important principle is patience and love for your hobby.
