They can also be used as beautiful key rings for keys and mobile phones, christmas toys, interior decor elements, etc.
Butterflies are created, as a rule, from soft knitting wire with an insert of beads and other decorative elements.
The masters are already used silver wire and precious stones.
Directly, the process of weaving for an inexperienced person is extremely difficult, so it is best to start with simple products.
Several of them we will look at below.
Let's start with such a pretty but not burdened with complex elements of the butterfly.
For the manufacture you will need tools for weaving (pliers, round-rolls, nippers), wire, medium-sized bead, paper, pencil.
We begin, as usual, from drawing a butterfly circuit.
If you can't draw it - print a picture on the printer.
Next, we fold the wire twice and start making the frame of the butterfly, following the drawing.
After creating a double knot so that the butterfly is not falling apart.
At the last stage of manufacture we put a bead and create antennas (mustlemen).
All the butterfly from the wire with their own hands is ready.
If you plan to use it, like a suspension or keychain, you need to additionally create a ring for fastening.
From a brilliant wire, the product may turn out to be brighter, especially if you use a colored bead.
But this is a matter of taste.
The second butterfly from the wire, which we consider somewhat more complicated in the manufacture, and consists of 2 parts bonded with each other.
Print the drawing and create two identical frames on it.
What are the bends and where to do, well shown in the photos below.
First we make a loop that will be the center of the top of the wing.
Next, create the upper and lower part of the wing.
After the bottom of the wing, we create a belly and mustache.
All half is ready. It remains to be made another similar and combine them among themselves.
Well, the third butterfly.
In appearance, it is fundamentally different from those discussed above and is created a little differently (relatively complex weaving).
How exactly look at the video, it is in English, but the main points are understandable even without knowing the language.
