Човек е доста смел, когато не знае с какво се захваща. Омаяна от снимките на кошнички от тел в интернет, просто трябваше да се опитам да ги направя. По-трудно беше да реша как да ги използвам - една с една не си пасваха. Ако искате да си пасват, следвайте това уроче и принципа на симетричните спирали. А аз направих висулки "Кошница от тел с цветя". Цветята са от различни
мъниста, вкл. чешко стъкло, кристали, капачета и разделители
на пирончета. Под главичката нанизах дребни стъклени мъниста. Закачих
ги на игла с ушенце, която прекарах през дупката в основата на
висулката. От външната страна направих второ ушенце. Изработих три
моделчета - идеята беше да се виждат и кошничките, и цветята. Балансът е
деликатен, но се справих.
Sometimes, you succeed just because you don't realize how difficult it is :-) I tried my hand at wire baskets and it worked! If you want your wire baskets to match (mine did not), follow this tutorial and learn the principle of symmetrical spirals. I designed three flower basket pendants - the idea was to show off both the baskets and flowers. I made the latter from a variety of beads, including Czech glass and crystal beads, bead caps and spacers on head pins as well as seed beads below the "flower heads". I attached them to an eye pin, pushed it through the bottom hole of the basket and made another eye pin. The balance was somewhat delicate but I managed.
