A dog is man's friend.
Every third family in the world has a pet. But it doesn’t always happen the way we want: some have allergies, while others are completely opposed to pets... However, there is a great opportunity to have a favorite dog without harming anyone. This is a beaded dog! Let's look together at how to make a dog from beads step by step in this master class. The material is designed for beginners. This product can be used as an interior accessory or worn as a keychain.
We braid the head
- There are 7 beads on one end of the fishing line. With the other end of the fishing line we pass into the last 7th bead. We close it in a ring.
- We place the ring with the tips of the blade down. We string 4 beads onto the left tip. With the right we pass through the last one.
- We pass the right tip of the fishing line through the bead of the first ring, string 3 beads onto the left tip and pass through the last bead with the right tip.
- Repeat step 3 4 more times.
- With the right tip we pass through two beads (one from the main ring, the second from the first ring of this row), we put two beads on the left tip and with the right we pass through the last one. The second row is finished.
- We collect 3 beads on the left tip and pass through the last one with the right one.
- With the right tip we pass through the beads of the previous row, on the left we collect 2 beads and with the right we pass through the last one.
- We repeat the previous step.
- With the right tip we pass through the bead of the previous row and through the bead of the first ring of this row. We collect 1 bead on the left tip and pass through it with the right one. The series is completed. Mark the beads with a marker as in the diagram. This will be where the ears are attached.
- We repeat everything as in the previous row. And mark the beads. And mark two beads on both sides.
- We insert the right end into the nearest bead of the previous row. We place one bead on the left one, one bead and another bead, and with the right one we pass through the last bead.
- With the right tip of the fishing line we pass through the beads of the previous row, on the left tip we collect 2 beads, with the right we pass through the last one.
- Repeat step 37.
When there is a small hole left, fill it with padding polyester and weave it according to the pattern. We mark the back of the beads to which the body will be attached.
This is the head we got.

How to create a dog brooch from beads using the lazy method
Sometimes there is a need to make some kind of decoration urgently, well, very urgently! But there is no time for the long process of bead embroidery... Then a quick method for the lazy will come to the rescue. I needed to make a royal poodle brooch in a couple of hours. When I made it, I regretted not filming the process. And since I don’t need two poodles, I’ll show you the example of a dog of another breed.
So, we will need:
- A piece of light felt;
- rhinestone ribbon;
- any beads (microbials, crooked Chinese, Czech or, if you don’t mind, then Japanese) in white and red shades;
- glue moment “Crystal”;
- glossy acrylic varnish (can easily be replaced with colorless nail polish);
- brush;
- pin clasp;
- a piece of felt or leather to cover the backdrop;
- paper, pen and scissors (were not included in the shot due to my forgetfulness and unconditional presence in any house).
I also found an agate stone in my stash, the color and shape matching my model. I also decided to use it, although it is quite possible to do without it.
Here's the polish I use.
It is better to take the thinnest rhinestone ribbon. I took this one.
If you don’t have a rhinestone ribbon, you can go the other way - string beads or small beads onto a thread or fishing line and lay the outline of this low one.
I decided to make Foxy this time. I draw the silhouette of a dog on paper, divide it into sections, along the contours of which I will lay out rhinestone ribbon. I marked the red areas with dots.
For those who cannot do this on their own, I give a tip - you can take ready-made templates for stained glass windows, there are many of them on the Internet, with different images.
Now we transfer the drawing to felt in any convenient way. The simplest one is to attach the drawing to the window glass.
Then I coat the entire silhouette with a thin layer of glue, let it dry for about 10 minutes. And I squeeze out fresh glue along the contour, onto which I begin to apply a rhinestone ribbon.
Those areas that do not have steep creases are laid out solid. In the same place where you need to make an acute angle, I cut off the tape.
I laid out the outline along the outer edge.
Now I glue my pebble.
And using the same method I lay out all the internal contours, and also frame the stone with rhinestone ribbon.
When all the rhinestone ribbon has been laid, I press it against the felt with my palm so that all the links that, due to an oversight, were not pressed well enough, fall into place. Then I start gluing the beads. I fill one area with glue, without skimping. And I pour beads of the desired color there. I just add a pinch. You can use a spoon, for example. I press down what I poured with my palm, touch up the fallen beads with a toothpick, and shake off the excess.
And so, section by section, I fill the entire brooch with beads.
This is enough for a fox terrier. I added volume to the poodle's hairstyle - I again squeezed out glue on top of the glued layer of beads and sprinkled it with beads, forming a semicircular surface.
I'm waiting for the glue to dry completely. And I take acrylic varnish. I cover the entire brooch with a brush. Areas with beads - with special fanaticism 
Don't be alarmed, the varnish will become transparent after drying. I leave it to dry until tomorrow. In principle, acrylic dries quickly, and after an hour you can continue.
The dog has dried up. You can decorate the backdrop.
To do this you will need felt, a piece of leather or leatherette (optional), a fastener, and glue.
Cut out the dog.
We trace it along the contour on a piece of felt. And we cut out holes on the leather for the fastener and try it on.
On the felt we mark the locations of the holes for the fasteners.
We cut holes and insert the fastener.
Lubricate both parts with glue and wait 5 minutes.
Glue the dog to the felt with a fastener.
When dry, cut along the contour.
This is what the inside looks like. If the felt is not cut straight enough, you can lightly melt it along the edge with a lighter.
You can leave it like that. But my felt is very thin and light. All the markings of the base are visible through it. Therefore, it was decided to cover the back with leather. In the same way, lubricate both parts with glue, wait 5 minutes, and then connect.
They glued the dog to the skin. We are waiting for it to dry completely.
All that remains is to cut along the contour, singe the edges with a lighter and the brooch is ready.
Back view.
Here is the finished result.
And on a scale to the lighter so you can estimate the size.
And here are both dogs as a couple.
I hope this quick way to create brooches will be useful on the eve of the New Year. You can make pigs for gifts, stars for children's New Year's costumes, and even a whole crown for a little princess.
I am glad to everyone who had the patience to read to the end!
Happy creativity!
Creating small figures
Often, patterns for weaving animals from beads for beginners are quite simple. They are not voluminous; most of the figures are made using parallel weaving. For example, the crocodile shown in the picture is created from green beads and wire (or fishing line). It will serve as an excellent keychain or bag pendant.
The parallel weaving technique creates legs that, as work progresses, are woven to the main fabric - the body. At the end of the work, we attach the selected accessories, and the cute crocodile is ready.
The next figure, an elephant, is created using a similar technique. Here the ears, trunk and tusks are woven, which are then organically woven into one whole. To create this product you will need beads of four colors.
A figurine of Tzipa the chicken would be an excellent pendant for a children's keychain. The separately made legs of the product are woven into the body without interrupting work. The main thing is to correctly alternate the colors of the beads to create eyes and a beak.
As you can see, this fascinating thing is bead weaving. Animal designs can be quite simple and the results are amazing.
