On the basis of weaving baubles, you can make a belt, a bookmark for a book, a key chain, decorate a hair hoop, etc. And of course, a bauble that keeps the warmth of your hands is a great gift for friends.

Fundamental rulesweaving baubles from ribbons for beginners.

Usually, only ribbons are required to create baubles, but you can decorate it with beads and sew a lock.

At the beginning and at the end of the product, leave a "tail" of ribbons to be able to tie a bracelet.

To prevent the ribbons from twisting, it is convenient to secure the beginning of the weaving with pins on the pillow.

For the bracelet, use ribbons about 100 cm long. Contrasting ribbon colors look best.

To prevent the ribbons from blooming, their edges must be carefully melted over the fire.

How to whip baubles from ribbons in a flat way

Fold the edges of the ribbons into a loop, and cross them.

Wrap the 1st (white) tape around the 2nd (blue).

In the reduced loop of the 1st (B) tape, pass the loop of the 2nd (D) tape.

Holding the loop of the 2nd (D) ribbon, tighten the loop of the 1st (B) ribbon.

Fold the 1st (B) tape into a loop and pass the remaining loop of the 2nd (D) tape through it.

Tighten the knot to fix the position of the white loop.

Continue braiding according to this principle.

When the bracelet reaches the desired length, pass the end of the ribbon into the final loop, not the loop.

Tighten the ends well in different directions to form a tie knot.

If, after reading the description, you still have questions, watch a short video that clearly shows how to weave a bauble.

Weaving baubles from 3 ribbons

The color of the 2-ribbons must match, the third on their background must be contrasting.

Clip the tapes together. Put two identical (light) ones next to each other, start skipping the third (dark) alternating over the 1st under the 2nd, over the 2nd under the 1st tape.

Move down, make sure that the distance between the sections of the dark tape is the same.

When the bracelet reaches the desired length, tie the ribbons into a knot.

Baubles from ribbons of the harness diagram

You will need 4 ribbons of 1.2 m each, but you can also take 2 ribbons 2.2 m long. Before starting weaving, just fold them crosswise.

Tie the ribbons in a knot.

Fold the edges of the ribbons counterclockwise so that each ribbon overlaps an adjacent one.

Tighten the knot, straighten the bands, and tighten the knot.

If you braided into 2 ribbons, then at the beginning you have no strings. To fix this, pull 2 ​​ribbons under the base.

Weaving a plait can be complicated by increasing the number of multi-colored ribbons, as a result the bauble will be thicker, and its colors are richer.

Baubles from ribbons of 4 pieces

Tie the ribbons in a knot of 2, and secure them with a pin.

Arrange pairs of ribbons at right angles. Pass the 2nd under the 3rd and over the 4th tapes, the first pass over the 3rd under the 4th tapes.

Turn the 3rd and 4th ribbons in the direction of the 1st and 2nd ribbons.

Pass the 2nd ribbon under the 1st, over the 3rd and under the 4th ribbons.

Now we skip the 1st tape under the 3rd and above the 4th tape.

We turn the 1st and 2nd tapes to the right.

Pass the 3rd tape under the 4th, over the 2nd under the 1st tapes.

Pass the 4th tape under the 2nd over the 1st.

Repeat the steps until the bauble is of the required length.

Braiding baubles from ribbons decorated with beads

The bracelet is made very simply, but it looks elegant. It goes well with an evening dress.

For its manufacture, in addition to a satin ribbon, you will need a needle, fishing line or nylon thread, large beads.

Insert the fishing line into the needle and make a stitch clearly in the middle of the tape (stepping back from the edge about 15 cm).

Before the 2nd and subsequent stitches, it is necessary to string the beads onto the needle and pull the bracelet into an accordion.

When the bracelet is the correct length, secure and cut the edge of the line.

The nuances of manufacturing. To make the bracelet look neat, the stitches must be the same length. Their length is selected depending on the size of the beads. To prevent the knot on the line from coming loose, melt it over the fire. The edge of the thread can be greased with glue.

The spread of baubles began in the 60s, when the first hippies appeared. At that time, the "children of flowers" believed that all people were brothers, and confirmed this brotherhood by giving each other baubles. At the same time, it was impossible to shoot fennies - this was considered the end of friendship and any relationship in general. Fenichki were not sold - the act of donation was sacred. But now fennecs are, first of all, an adornment, which often does not symbolize anything. Therefore, in addition to standard thread baubles, ribbon baubles have become popular.

How to learn how to weave baubles from ribbons?
Weaving baubles is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance. The most important thing you have to do is stock up on materials, patience and good mood, because without a positive attitude, fennec loses an important share of symbolism. So, in order to weave a simple bracelet from ribbons, you will need:

1. The first step is to choose contrasting or well-combined colors.

   

   
   
2. Tie a simple knot, leaving sufficient length for the ends of the ribbons - there will be ties here later.

   

   
   
3. Form two loops, green and beige.

   

   
   
4. Thread the green eyelet into the beige one.

   

   
   
5. Tighten the beige loop by pulling on the long end. Make sure that the exit after tightening is a square without folds.

   

   
   
6. Form another beige loop and thread it through the green one.

   

   
   
7. Gently tighten the green tab.

   

   
   
8. Form another green loop and thread it into a beige one.

   

   
   
9. Repeat these steps until your bauble gets the desired length.

   

   
   
10. When the length of the bauble meets your desires, start forming the end knot: straighten the next loop into a ribbon. Tie a green ribbon with a beige one and tighten an ordinary knot. To strengthen the structure, you can make two or three knots - this way you will not drag the fennel (therefore, it will not warp), but protect yourself from untiing it.

    

    
    

Fenichka is ready!

However, you can weave baubles from ribbons in another way. For it you will need:

• 4 satin ribbons;
  
• pins;
  
• scotch tape or electrical tape;
  
• scissors.
  

Weaving a bauble made of four ribbons does not differ much from weaving an ordinary bauble, but for a better result, it is better to fix the bindings with pins.

1. Pick up pairs of ribbons contrasting in color and glue them together so that there are free ends for fastening. Place both pairs so that the threads make a braided square: orange under green, green under beige, gray under brown, but over beige.

   

   
   
2. Turn the brown and beige ribbons so that all 4 ribbons are facing the same direction. To facilitate the task, you can fix them with a pin.

   

   
   
3. Pass the gray ribbon under the green, over the brown and under the beige.

   

   
   
4. Fix the green ribbon in a similar manner.

   

   
   
5. Now turn the gray and green ribbons to one side with the others.

   

   
   
6. Thus, continue weaving to the length you need.

Weaving baubles- one of the most popular activities for modern girls. How to weave a bauble from ribbons with your own hands? They are woven from satin ribbons, from floss. Fenichka is also called the friendship bracelet. In turn, the bauble has a rather rich history. It dates back several centuries.

Previously, ribbons and threads of all kinds of colors were used for weaving. Most often, in the second half of the twentieth century, it was bright shades that were preferred, as this attracted the attention of hippies to such an interesting thing. As a rule, the hippie subculture is a lover of everything bright.

They simply could not ignore the colored floss baubles. The exchange of bracelets, which are made of floss, as in the days of the Indians, symbolized for hippies as brotherhood. The wedding fennecs of love were also especially popular then. They did not differ in pattern and color, used by hippies as a wedding ring.

When weaving such a fennec a person puts his whole soul into it. It is done specifically for a specific person, while taking into account his preferences, disposition and character. After you presented it as a gift, it remains with its owner forever, becoming a part of his culture. But there are also "wandering fennies". They are woven specifically in order to pass them on to each other, from city to city. This chain of owners is closely monitored. The farther the fennec was passed from its first owner, the more pride he became.
Most often, floss fennecs are worn by members of religious communities. Someone weaves a star into them, and someone clings to a cross.

They are worn by many people regardless of gender and age. They can be used as a specific symbol or simply as decoration. Baubles, depending on the pattern and color, can tell a lot about their owner. For example, about his musical predilections and possibly about his sexual orientation. So fans of various musical styles and groups mostly wear bracelets with the initials of their favorite idols. In turn, people who do not hide their orientation stand out with bright symbols. If they are worn by two guys, then these are black and blue jewelry, and if two friends are wearing them, they are pink with white elements.

How to weave a ribbon bauble quickly? Below in the video tutorial you can see a simple scheme for beginners, learn to understand and read patterns of weaving from ribbons. Such baubles made of floss of any color are important and even symbolic. The most popular and common colors are white, red, pink, orange and blue. White color symbolizes kindness, innocence, freedom. If the bauble is red, pink, orange, then this is the color of passion, love and joy. Blue, on the other hand, personifies some kind of serenity, peace and hope.

Baubles first appeared among Indian tribes in North America. This accessory served not only as a decoration, but also as a protector from the dark forces. Now they are worn by almost everyone. This beautiful attribute emphasizes the individuality of the owner, especially if it is made by hand. Weaving does not take much time, and can be an exclusive gift for a soul mate, little brother or sister.

Preparation

Material

If you've never weaved bracelets, the simplest material is two ribbons. There are many technologies, but without experience, it is better to use the simpler ones. In addition to ribbons, you can take:

• Floss threads.
• Beads.
• Skin.

Some craftsmen use any material that is at hand, so long as it can be tied into a knot and pinned.

Workplace

The first weaving will take more time, so it is better to clear the table, place the necessary tools on it and concentrate to remember everything and avoid mistakes.

There should be nothing superfluous in the workplace so as not to interfere and not distract. Of the tools you will need:

• Needle.
• Pin.
• Weaving material (floss threads, ribbons or beads).

The main types of nodes

Sometimes its own technology is used, but there are two basic options. And you need to start with them.

• Right loop knot. The working thread is to the right of the knotted thread.
• Left loop knot. The working thread is to the left of the knotted thread.

The knotted thread is the thread with which the knot is tied, and the working thread around which it is tied.

Knots that are tied in twos

• Direct knot. The process is similar to the previous one, only instead of one node, two consecutive ones are made at once. The working thread should be on the left.
• Reverse knot. Very similar to a straight line, only the working thread is on the right.
• Left tatting. The node is much more complicated than the previous ones. Use it when learning simpler techniques. In the starting position, the working thread is on the left. First, we tie the left loop knot, while the working thread should go to the right. With the right thread, we make the right loop knot, respectively, and repeat the process.
• Right tatting. The same as the third knot, only the thread is initially on the right.

In words, it may seem that weaving baubles at home is a complicated process, in fact, everything is much simpler. You can even use various schemes that show how to cross the working and knotted threads.

Weaving from ribbons for beginners

You will need two or four satin ribbons (depending on the weaving method), a needle and a pin. The tapes must be one meter long.

I advise beginners to use just ribbons, because they are wider. The working and knotted thread is more clearly visible, there is an understanding of where to tie a knot and why.

Training option for beginners

1. We put two ribbons on top of each other, bend them fifteen centimeters and put them on top. You should get something that looks like two knots. For convenience, you can use a pin to secure the result.
2. We bend the upper buttonhole to the other side, as if an ordinary knot is being tied.
3. Bend the bottom strap all the way to return to the starting position, but now the buttonhole will be smaller.
4. Through the resulting loop, you need to push the working tape (which remained free all the time).
5. Pull the end of the small loop, only slowly and carefully. The knot should not be tight.
6. We make another loop and thread it through the fold that remains.
7. Tighten the long edge and secure the second eyelet. If necessary, you can tighten the ends to make the pattern uniform. If you can see the semblance of a square, the job is done correctly.
8. It remains only to continue repeating steps 1-7 until the thread runs out. The finished bauble can be fastened with something and worn on the arm.

Round ribbon bracelet

In this case, the Chinese knot is used, which is called the "lotus". Weaving will take about an hour of free time, so it is better not to be distracted in order to get a beautiful result the first time.

You will need:

• Ribbons in two colors, two and two and a half meters. Or four tapes of one and a half meters (different colors).
• Pin for securing the material.

Step by step plan:

1. Let's analyze the option for two ribbons. We make a cross, fix the middle with a pin. Moreover, there will be a light ribbon on top, and a dark one below (for a more illustrative example).
2. We take the tape that lies below, from it we make the shape of an arch to the left. The lines must be parallel to each other, otherwise the bauble will turn out to be a curve.
3. We do the same with the light ribbon, only the arch will turn out perpendicular to the dark ribbon.
4. Now we bend the right end of the dark basma, the one that goes below the center, like an arch to the right, only it should be inverted.
5. We do the same with a light tape, which should be bent approximately at the point where the second arch ends.
6. We tighten the knots at first slightly (the pattern is obtained in the form of a square), then the main material must be fixed with effort. To do this, we tighten it again (the picture should resemble a crumpled lump).
7. We repeat steps 1-6 until the very end.

Peculiarities:

• Working with ribbons is simple, but a beginner should use a pin as often as possible to secure the result.
• This is convenient in cases where you need to move somewhere and do not want the nodules to relax and become ugly.
• Basically, the ribbon pattern initially looks like a small square, hence the name - the square weaving method.

How to weave beaded baubles

Beading is more difficult than the previous method, you will have to spend more time learning the basics, but the result is worth it.

You will need:

• Beads (must be of high quality, of the same size).
• Lavsan or nylon fishing line must be strong.
• Clasp (if necessary).

Weaving methods and detailed description

To speed up the beading process, professionals use a machine on which the lines are stretched and fixed in the opposite direction. You can make a similar structure yourself, but let's look at simpler and less costly methods.

Braiding

You will need:

• Multi-colored beads.
• Bracelet clasp.
• 3 lines of equal length (70 cm is ideal).

Sequence of execution:

1. Fold a piece of fishing line in half and fasten the fasteners into a ring.
2. For all 3 lines we collect the same length of beads (about 35 cm).
3. We fix the ends of the line segments on the second ring of the fastener.
4. It turned out 3 rows of fishing line: top, middle and bottom. Put the top row on top of the middle one.
5. Then we put the bottom row on top of the top one.
6. We put the top row on top of the bottom one.
7. We repeat the procedure 4-6 times until the bracelet is ready.

If you increase the length of the line, you can get not only bracelets, but also jewelry on the neck. If you have imagination, you can add gems by making small holes in them so that you can string them on the fishing line.

Video Tips

Weaving with a cross

You will need:

• Beads.
• Lavsan thread.
• Two needles.
• Clasp.
• Weaving pattern (final pattern).

How to weave:

1. We measure the girth of the wrist. Cut off one meter from the thread or fishing line. We pass both ends obtained into the eye of the needles.
2. On one of the needles, you need to put on a half of the clasp and one beads. We pass the second needle into the same beads.
3. Gradually thread one bead on each side.
4. We thread both needles into the next thread again, and then tighten. You should get a cross.
5. Again we carry out 3 and 4 points.
6. We continue until we finish the bracelet.

It is worth noting that there are different weaving variations. In our case, the bracelet will turn out to be very thin, but it can be expanded if the stages are slightly changed.

Popular schemes

They love to use beads for weaving baubles because they can create a pattern of any complexity. The pattern itself is called a pattern. Most often, weaving with a cross is used, but in some cases the methods are different.

Popular patterns:

• Intertwining (interlacing of beads of different colors, it looks very beautiful).
• Pattern with various animal faces.
• Inscriptions. If you write something non-standard, you will have to create a diagram yourself or ask an experienced master to do it.
• Hearts. The simplest element with a picture.

The list of schemes is endless. The procedure is somewhat similar to knitting, but with a slight difference.

Beaded baubles with names and titles

Weaving a personalized bauble as a gift is a great idea. Some even create the logos of their favorite bands or the names of films. The only limitation is the imagination of the needlewoman.

To weave a beaded bracelet with a name or title, two methods are used:

1. Machine tool. It will take a lot of time, and you need to have a machine, or make it from scrap materials.
2. When weaving in a cross. The method is suitable for beginners.

In the first case, standard schemes of printed letters are used, in the second you will have to work hard on your own using a notebook sheet. One cell - one bead.

You can take only two colors, one for the background material, the other for the letters. Logos are trickier, as schematics are tricky.

Mouline thread baubles

First, secure the threads in one of the following ways:

• With a clerical clip.
• The threads are tied in a knot and secured with a pin.
• The threads are attached to the table surface with tape.
• Using a tablet and a ruler.

Weaving is a painstaking occupation that requires perseverance, but the most economical, because the only material that is required is threads.

Ways for Beginners

To begin with, it is worth deciding on the nodes with which the masterpiece will be created. This point is similar to that described in weaving from ribbons, the right and left loop knots are also distinguished.

Oblique weaving

You will need: 12 strands in 6 colors. Moreover, the same colors should be located symmetrically to each other (that is, the extreme ones are always the same). Acceptable length from 0.8 to 1 meter.

Subsequence:

1. Threads 1 and 2 are intertwined, forming a "four". The end of the first thread is threaded through the resulting window, eventually a knot should appear.
2. The procedure is repeated, there should be two nodes.
3. Now a similar process should happen with strands 11 and 12, then 3 and 4, 10 and 9, etc.
4. After that, knots are tied on the original threads.
5. All points are repeated anew.

It is better to fasten the resulting bauble with an additional knot so that it does not unravel.

Fenichka is an interesting accessory that came to us from antiquity. Weaving baubles invented by Indian tribes many centuries ago. Previously, this decoration was given a special role, it was made in the main traditions individually for each tribe. The well-known hippie subculture, as they were also called "children of flowers", gave a second life to wrist bracelets.

They put not only cult traditions into these bracelets, but also their soul. To donate a bauble for them meant expressing their deep feelings for a person. As before, and now the most popular materials for their manufacture are floss, various ribbons and cords.

Satin ribbon baubles video

This decoration symbolizes friendship, unity, love and freedom. In ancient times, baubles were an excellent substitute for wedding rings; they were worn on the finger of their chosen ones as a sign of love and devotion.

Baubles weave in different color combinations. If now it is more like an accessory and a tribute to fashion, then for people of past centuries, the color definition was of much greater importance. The red and white bauble spoke of free love, which was typical of hippie culture. Also, by the color of the bracelets, it was possible to determine not only the age of the wearer of the bracelet, but also his position in society. People who belong to a certain rank or community distinguished themselves with different colors.

In the modern world, more and more often you can find young people who adorn their wrists with bracelets made of ribbons. This suggests that the fashion for weaving baubles returns. Most of the younger generation have a desire to weave baubles not only for themselves, but also for close friends.

Someone just looks at these jewelry and admires their variety, while someone is really interested in the technique of creating bracelets. It is quite easy to make a beautiful and fashionable accessory. Many techniques and schemes allow imagination to roam to unimaginable limits, however, there are basics that are not so difficult to comprehend. You can learn how to weave baubles from ribbons using a simple example.

For making simple baubles you need to take two tapes, each at least one meter long. It is better to choose colors not only those that look good with each other and stand out. You can take a blue ribbon and a cream one. In width for the first weaving, it is better to take ribbons of more than one centimeter.

Weaving baubles

We take the prepared ribbons, put one on top of the other and tie a knot as close to the edge as possible. As a result, you should have a loop obtained from the knot; the free edges of the tape must be directed inside the tape.

Now we make a blue loop and thread a cream loop into it, tighten the last one.
Then we do the same, only in the reverse order: thread the blue loop through the cream loop and tighten it carefully. Weaving should be continued until the bauble reaches the required length.

1. Choose colors for future decoration with great responsibility. This is not an easy bracelet, but jewelry that came to us from antiquity, which carries a certain deep meaning.
2. Do not tighten the bracelets too tight. It is better to leave them slightly weakened, so they will have a more prominent and pronounced appearance.
3. For more convenience, help yourself with a small pin during the initial stages of braiding. It will allow you to avoid unwanted slipping of the tapes from the hinges.
