Who said that an electric guitar should pull back its neck, roar like a Jericho trumpet when it touches the strings, and be made of wood and electronics? She can lie in her pocket, have no strings at all, and she can have a key ring hanging from her belt. And such a guitar will be made from large faceted beads of different colors.
Necessary
- Faceted beads 5 * 7 mm in different colors;
- Wire 0.05 mm;
- A little beads to match the beads or a piece of leather (leatherette) 5 * 100 mm;
- Keyring ring.
Instructions
Step 1
Start braiding from the top of your guitar. To do this, type five beads on the wire, go through the first twice. Tighten the resulting circle. Next, type three beads on one end of the wire, two on the other. With the other end, go through the outermost bead of the first end (you should get a circle again) and tighten. Make another six-bead circle. For the final circle of the first row, string three beads at one end. For others, take one bead and go through the outermost bead of the first end.
Step 2
Cast on the next rows according to the diagram. You can make the entire front deck a solid color, or you can come up with some kind of ornament. But this model does not imply strings. Note that the brown beads in the middle of the top row are the first two neck beads.
Step 3
Weave the neck. The first circle will consist of five beads (the ends of the wire are crossed on the middle one), the rest of four. Of course, it's better to make the neck a different color than the deck.
Step 4
Weaving the neck of the desired length, proceed to weaving the head. Since it is beveled to the side in many electric guitars, the beads on the right or left should be of a smaller diameter (the head slopes towards the beads of a smaller diameter).
Step 5
Weave the exact same design in a lighter color scheme. This will be the back of the guitar.
Step 6
Prepare your guitar strap and key ring. If the belt is made of beads, then weave the chain using the “cross” technique one and a half to two times longer than the length of the guitar. Attach the ring to the belt.
Step 7
Connect the front and back of the guitar. At the bottom right (facing you) and on top of the neck, fasten the ends of the strap.
Step 8
Hide the ends of the wires and threads. Place the keys on the ring.
