It’s been some time since I final posted in regards to the bead animals from the outdated artwork gallery that used to reside at this area. Right now I’m protecting the lovable little mammals and, after all, I’m that includes the pig since we at the moment are within the Yr of the Pig. That snout and people ears are simply too, too cute. 🙂
Simply to reiterate from final time, these are the outdated pictures with new watermarks except the “featured” picture. Most of those animals have been created following the patterns of others and in order that’s how I made a decision to group them. Let’s get began!
The positioning is outdated (2013), in frames (yuck), in French (Oui!), and gone from the lively net (😢) however the patterns are all out there for free.
I used a bigger plastic bead from an outdated necklace for the bear’s nostril. He’s fairly cute and would make a enjoyable toy for a doll.
That is my favourite sample of Marilyne’s, I believe. I simply love his candy little face. I believe it’s a pity nobody has made a sample for Fennec foxes. Though the hazard at this measurement is that somebody errors it for a chihuahua. LOL
Clearly this photograph was taken in a special setting. In actual fact, these little darlings have been by no means posted on the outdated website in any respect as a result of I made them later. I cherished the hedgehog sample a lot, but it surely’s actually arduous to bead due to all of the spikes. Your wire will most probably break a number of instances. Nonetheless, I ended up making two of them so I will need to have felt it was price it!
The moose have been fairly neat, however they actually don’t get up effectively in any respect. Extra wire is required to strengthen the legs, particularly for the reason that antlers make the top so top-heavy.
I discovered this pig to be adorably plump and the curly tail was cute, however what I actually love is its ears. It additionally struggles to face correctly on its wee legs.
Random Patterns Combined With Mine
I discovered plenty of these patterns on-line and made up a number of of my very own. The originals have been meant for use with pony beads, however they translate effectively with 11/0 seed beads.
I think I began with the badger as a result of I favored his little limbs and used them on the squirrel and raccoon patterns. Then I made a decision I didn’t just like the skunk patterns that have been on the market so I made up my very own together with the rabbit. Lastly, I beaded the mouse, eliminating one of many beads on the finish of every leg so that they appeared even tinier.
The cow and bull have been each patterns I discovered on-line, though I beaded the bull so his little horns would stick out. Then I made up my very own sample for the fox with every thing I’d discovered from making the opposite animals.
Me
I needed to make my sister a bead canine, however I couldn’t discover any patterns much like her kind of pooch (border collies being one in all her favorites). So I took the physique from Marilyne’s fox and created my very own head, ears, and curly tail.
This was the primary bead animal sample that I made solely alone. It took a few tries, however I lastly found out how you can get the hind legs simply so. I nonetheless find it irresistible.
I felt all the bead cat patterns I noticed appeared a bit too cartoon-y so I attempted making my very own. I took what I had discovered from making the canine and went to work. I’d make the physique much less barrel-shaped now, however general I’m nonetheless pleased with this one.
What Subsequent?
That is the second group of my bead animals (the primary was ocean/water), so we nonetheless have birds, bugs/butterflies, fantasy/legendary, and my bead spiders to go! In case you have been inquisitive about my nail artwork, listed below are 4 favorites that embrace a few of the animals we checked out at present. Or try the animal tag.
