Weave a bracelet from ribbons of baubles mk. Old traditions: how to weave a bauble from ribbons

Instruction

Take two long satin ribbons of the same width. For starters, two different colors will be enough for you - for example, black and orange. The length of each ribbon must be at least one meter.

Fold the ends of the two ribbons together and tie a looped knot. Then, on each tape, make 2 loops no more than 10-15 cm long and lay them on top of each other. Pass the loop on the black tape through the loop on the orange tape and tighten the orange loop. After that, make a loop on the orange ribbon again. Pass it through the black loop and tighten the black ribbon. You will have an orange loop in your hands, to which you need to fold the black loop again.

Pass the black loop through the orange one, and tighten the orange loop. Make an orange loop, then thread it through the black loop and tighten it. Continue the bracelet, alternating and tightening the loops until the bracelet reaches the desired length. Pull the loops of the same length and do not tighten them too much - so that the bracelet is neat and the ribbons are intertwined evenly.

At first, you can fix the end of the loop on the base with a pin so as not to lose it. As a result, you should succeed with the original square weave. Tie a regular knot at the end of the baubles.

With the help of such weaving, you can make both independent and braid for bags and clothing, as well as braid woven in this way, you can decorate various interior items - flower pots, glasses for pens and pencils, and much more.

You can try to create a twisted bauble no longer from two, but from four ribbons. To do this, take four ribbons of different colors. It is best to use ribbons about 5-7 mm wide. The length must be at least two meters. You can take not four, but two four-meter ribbons and start weaving by tying them in the middle.

To weave a twisted bauble, you first need to step back about fifteen centimeters from the edge and tie a knot. This residue is necessary in order to tie a bauble later. Spread the four ribbons in different directions perpendicular to each other. Bend the top ribbon towards you to make a loop. Lay the top tape on the right. Now take the right ribbon and fold it into a loop through the top ribbon you laid earlier. Put the right tape on the bottom one. Next, take the bottom ribbon and bend it as well, then lay it on the left ribbon. Bend the left ribbon as well and thread it through the top loop. Gently stretch all four ribbons in different directions so that the loops will secure your ribbons. Just don't drag them. Don't worry if you don't see a clear pattern on the first row. After you have stretched the tapes, lay them out again in different directions and repeat all the above steps. Already on the second row you can clearly trace your drawing. Repeat the above steps until the length of the baubles is perfect for you. At the end, simply fasten the ribbons and tie the bracelet around your hand.

From two satin ribbons of different colors, you can weave a square bauble, which can also become an excellent keychain. Take two satin ribbons of different colors. The length must be taken at least four meters. To make it easier to understand the process, let one tape be blue and the other white. You can take any other colors. Fold the ribbons in half. Place the blue ribbon with the ends away from you on the table. Lay the white ribbon perpendicular to the blue one exactly in the middle. The hinges should be respectively below and on the right. Take the top white ribbon and carefully place it over the right blue one and under the left blue one. Now bend the same ribbon to the right and place it above the blue ribbon. Take the right blue ribbon by the tip and pass it over the other ribbons down, at the bottom white ribbon, pass the blue ribbon under the bottom. The main thing is that this action is performed in the middle between the two blue ribbons.

Now take two blue ribbons and start pulling in different directions. Just do it very carefully. After pulling a little, go to the white ribbons and also smoothly pull them in different directions. And so on until a drawing of four squares is obtained.

Now fold the right white ribbon so that it turns to the left. Also fold the top blue one and place it on top of the white one. Lay the left white ribbon on top of the previously folded blue ribbon so that the end of it is on the right. Lay the remaining blue ribbon over the bottom white ribbon and thread it through the loop created when the top white ribbon was folded. Pull evenly on all ends to make four squares again.

Now take the top blue ribbon and fold it so that the tip is pointing down. Fold the right white ribbon over the blue ribbon. Put the bottom blue on top of the white. And put the remaining white ribbon at the top right on top of the first blue ribbon and then thread it through the loop formed by the first blue ribbon we folded. Pull on the ends. Such actions must be repeated until the length of your baubles or keychain is optimal for you.

Many people like this type of weaving because you can get not only a square bracelet, but also make it twisted if you wish. To do this, the already finished and fixed square bauble needs to be twisted a little, taking its ends with both hands and smoothly turning one end in one direction and the other in the other. With such a bauble, you need to be very careful. After all, if you stretch the tapes too much, it will be impossible to return them to their original appearance.

For both adults and children, weaving baubles from ribbons will not seem difficult. The materials for creating bracelets can be beads and beads, threads and leather, as well as satin ribbons. And if it is more difficult to work with beads or floss threads (this is a rather painstaking work), then weaving baubles from satin ribbons will not cause any difficulties in the work.

Experienced needlewomen can manage with one bauble in just a few minutes! Fast, high quality and very beautiful - these are the main advantages of weaving baubles from ribbons.

Those who are just trying their hand at weaving should start making baubles from ribbons. A little patience and perseverance, and the result will not be long in coming.

If we talk about the progenitors of the art of weaving baubles, it would be fair to recall the American Indians. Through the centuries, this piece of decor was introduced into their subculture by hippies. Today, the fashion for such things is back. Such cute little things, presented to a dear person, are very much appreciated. Previously, a bauble was considered an attribute of a certain culture, today it is just a friendly gift that can show off on everyone's hand. In some cases, girlfriends specifically wear the same baubles on their wrists, thereby indicating that they are best friends.

Young women of fashion hang baubles on bags and use them as key rings.

So, how to make baubles from ribbons? There are at least two easy ways.

Baubles from two ribbons

To work on the future bracelet, you need satin ribbons of two colors. Remember the principles of color combinations. Today, on the Internet, you can easily find special tables that help you learn how to harmoniously combine colors. But for the first time, you can take two colors, one of which is yellow. Colors such as red, blue and green are perfectly combined with it.

For example, let's see how to weave a bauble from green and orange ribbons. Approximately each tape should be a meter long.

First we fold the edge of one ribbon (green). We wrap it with another ribbon (orange), after which we tie a knot. Thus, from the green tape we get a live loop - if you pull on its long end, then the loop can be pulled up.

Now the loose ribbon (orange) needs to be folded into a loop, and then threaded into the finished loop made earlier from the green ribbon.

After that, the green loop needs to be tightened a little.

We will see that the already orange loop has become large. Next, we fold the green ribbon into the loop and thread it into the orange one. We tighten the orange loop. The process is repeated, we do these steps in turn.

As soon as we reach the desired length of the bracelet, we tie the ribbons with each other in a knot.

Fenichka is ready! It can be worn on the arm or attached to a backpack.


Square bauble of four ribbons

In this version of weaving baubles from ribbons, the consumption of ribbons is already greater.

We will need 4 tapes already (their width is 5-7 mm). Length - 2 meters or more. You can take 2 long ribbons and start weaving from the middle with four ends.

Let's start weaving a square baubles. We leave 15 cm of each ribbon on the ties, we tie the ribbons into one knot.

Do not think about where the front side of the tape is, and where is the wrong side: in this bauble they will be visible the same way.

Straighten the ribbons up, down, left and right. And then weave in the following sequence:

  1. We bend one tape (pink) from top to bottom, leaving a loop.
  2. Now we cover it with a second tape, bending it from right to left (brown tape).
  3. Overlapping the brown ribbon, bend the beige ribbon from the bottom up.
  4. Next, fold the orange ribbon from left to right and slip it into the pink ribbon loop.
  5. Gently tighten all the ribbons, form an even square. We straighten all the tapes.

The ribbons do not need to be tightened too much, otherwise the bauble will be uneven.

Repeat all five steps until the ribbon reaches the desired length. You will see that the bauble turns out to be quite voluminous.

Many people like this bauble because it can be worn not only in its original form, i.e. square, but also twisted with a spiral. To do this, it is enough to twist the finished bauble slightly, but very carefully to prevent deformation of the product.

Handle such a square bauble with care. With strong stretching, the ribbons can twist, in which case the bauble will no longer return to its original form, but will be like this:

Many craftsmen, even at the beginning of work, insert a harsh thread into the bauble - so the bracelet does not stretch and stays in good condition for a long time.


Round ribbon baubles

You can also weave round baubles from ribbons. Such a round bracelet is woven from Chinese "lotus" knots. It will take about an hour to work. Tighten the knots very tightly, then the cord (the bauble itself) will turn out to be tough and will not lose shape for a long time.

So, we need two ribbons 2 or 2.5 m long or 4 ribbons 1.5 m each. In the first case, satin ribbons are placed crosswise and fixed with a pin.

In the case of weaving baubles from four ribbons, they need to be folded together, tied in a knot, after stepping back 10 cm for ties. The knot is also fixed with a pin.

After that, we tighten the ribbons into a bundle and straighten them.

Then the knot must be pulled tighter:

  1. One ribbon (light) lies straight, the second (dark) lies on top of the light ribbon in the form of an arch.
  2. Now we turn the light ribbon to the right so that it lies on top of the dark ribbon, also forming an arch. In this case, the two arches are perpendicular to each other.
  3. Next, the dark ribbon should be lifted up so that it lies on top of the light ribbon, forming an inverted arch.
  4. The light ribbon, in turn, bends to the left and passes not only over the brown ribbon, but also under it (look carefully at the photo!)

We repeat the above sequence of actions until the cord reaches the desired length.

That is, the basis of weaving a round baubles is a four-stage intersection of arches from ribbons. Then they are transformed into one square, which is then pulled tight. It turns out a beautiful elegant cord.

It can be used not only as a bracelet, but also as another decorative element. It can decorate children's things, be a keychain, it can be used to make a beautiful headband or handles for a child's handbag - why not? If you weave a round bauble tightly enough, there will be no doubt about the strength of such a product.
