Poodle

We have already got a few tutorials on beaded dogs on our site, but there are so many dog breeds that I can't stop making them.

Today we will make one more dog, a 3D poodle.

We will need:

- size 10/0 seed beads of two colors: the main color and black color. Out of the main color beads we will make the dog's head, ears, body, legs and tail. You can choose any color you like as the main color. It can be white, brown or apricot color and even light blue as mine. Out of black color beads we will make a nose and eyes, so we need only three such beads;

- wire 0.2 mm thick.

Bull in brick stitch

As you know, 2021 is a year of the Ox in the Chinese zodiac. On our site we already have a tutorial on how to make a 3D bull and today we will make another bull, a flat one. For beading we will use the technique of brick stitch. It is a simple beadwork that can be made fairly quickly if you have some experience in brick stitch beadweaving.

We will need:
- seed beads of seven colors; I used seed beads #8/0 of light-yellow, pink, gray, black, blue, grayish-pink and red colors;
- beading thread (use any kind of thread you prefer to work with) and one or two beading needles (depends on your style of making a ladder stitch  chain).

Goat in right angle weave

 

Today we will make a three-dimensional goat in the technique of right angle weave.

We will need the following materials:

- size 8/0 seed beads of four colors: the main color for the head, neck, body and legs (I made a few goats of different colors; a white one looks pretty good, but for the tutorial I chose seed beads of blue color to get contrastу photos), black color for the eyes and hooves, gray color for the horns and one red bead for the nose;

- a filler for the head and body (there are plenty different fillers: sintepon, holofiber, cotton wool, etc.; you can use any kind of filler you've got available);

- fishing line 0.3 мм (you may use any kind of thread for beadweaving you prefer to work with) and two beading needles.

A mouse with a piece of cheese

 

Today we will make a composition of two beaded things. They are a mouse and a piece of cheese. For making them we will use the technique of 3D beading on two segments of wire.
