We continue to make various beadwork based on the bead weaving technique, which - today we will make candy.
We will need:
- a bead with a diameter of 8 mm;
- Czech beads No. 10 of two colors (as an example, I took beads of blue and yellow colors);
- 2 beads of size No. 8, similar in color to one of the selected colors of small beads (I have them yellow);
- a thin fishing line and a needle for beading.

First, we braid the bead with beads of size No. 10, using the braiding technique described in detail.
To braid the beads, we take a fishing line 80 cm long and, after braiding is completed, we fix the rest of the fishing line and cut it off.
The bead can be braided with beads of one color, but to make the candy more beautiful, I braided the bead with beads of two colors, picking beads of one color for long rows, and beads of another color for short rows. True, in order for the pattern to remain symmetrical on the bead, I had to abandon the last - the smallest - row, for which I usually take only 4 beads. Of course, in this case, small gaps remain between the rows of beads, but due to the alternation of rows of different colors, these gaps are practically invisible on the finished product.
So, in total, when braiding a bead, I made 12 rows of beads: in odd rows - 8 blue beads, and in even rows - 5 yellow beads.

We leave this braided bead aside for a while and proceed to the manufacture of the ends of the candy wrapper.
We weave these tips separately, for each tip we take a fishing line 30 cm long.

Step 1:
We collect a large bead (size No. 8) on the fishing line and place it a few centimeters from the free end of the fishing line. We pass the needle through this bead from the side of the free end of the fishing line.

We tighten the thread, thus fixing the bead on the fishing line.

For greater strength, you can once again pass the needle through the fishing line so that the bead is secured with two loops.

Further weaving the tip of the candy wrapper, then we use only beads of size No. 10.

Step 2:
We collect 6 yellow beads on the fishing line, then immediately - 3 blue and 6 more yellow.

Step 3:
We pass the needle through a large bead towards the free end of the fishing line.

Step 4:
We pass the needle in the opposite direction through the last dialed 6 yellow beads.

We pull the line. Since we did not touch the large bead at this step, the fishing line makes a loop around it.

Step 5:
We collect 3 blue and 6 yellow beads on the fishing line.

Next, repeat step 3 - pass the needle through a large bead towards the free end of the thread.

Next, repeat step 4 - pass the needle in the opposite direction through the last dialed 6 yellow beads

and tighten the line.

In the same technique, we continue to make a "corolla" over a large bead; we need to sequentially repeat steps 5, 3 and 4 two more times so that the total number of yellow segments becomes five.

Next, we collect 3 blue beads on the fishing line

and we pass the needle first through the very first segment of 6 yellow beads, and then immediately through a large bead.

We pull out the fishing line - the tip of the candy wrapper is ready.

Everyone has long known that the sooner we develop fine motor skills in a child, the better! Up to a year, you can try to draw with finger paints, learn the Horned Goat, Ladushki and White-sided Magpie, tear and crumple paper.

And after a year he will get acquainted with salt dough, build pyramids, stick stickers, start making applications, finger gymnastics. Let me tell you about our games in this area. You can invent a lot of such crafts, this time we decided to portray a big cake!

So what we need:

1. We draw the base on paper, with a regular felt-tip pen or paints. For clarity, we drew 3 candles, because. In six months it will be 3 years.

2. Glue 2-sided tape on top, try not to go beyond the contour.

3. We put decorations for crafts in front of the child (These are beads, beads, cereals, vermicelli - whatever you want ...)

4. Well, then, let the child dream up. Once my daughter sat and glued 1 bead in rows, but 2 times she began to experiment, poured everything on the cake at once, then rolled, moved, sorted out. It turned out to be another fun and useful game! At the very end, I gave her more coffee beans. The cake was very flavorful. Enjoy your games!
