About:
In this video, designer and author Fen Li will guide you with three of the most basic technique for learning how to make seed bead and wire flowers. Learn the art of French beaded flowers from an internationally recognized designer and Bead and Button show instructor.
Transcript for intro and outro for the hearing impaired:
Welcome to French beaded flowers 101! If you’ve always wanted to make French beaded flowers but always felt intimidated because it looks so hard, then you are in the right place.
Hi everyone, I’m Fen Li, designer here at the Bead Flora Studio, author to the book Bead Flora: the Revival of French beaded flowers and a bead instructor at the bead and button show. On this channel, I offer technique reference guides, tip videos, and free beaded flower tutorials just like this one. If you are new here and would like to learn more, consider subscribing.
Today’s project is the first project in my book: Spring Flowers. This is the 1st out of 6 technique practice projects from my book. This project is the ultimate beginners practice project because it will teach you three of the most basic techniques but it won’t take as long as a full flower project. We all love instant gratification! Myself included!
Yes, I’ve done this project on my channel when I first released my book but I wanted to remake it for this series I’m doing. And as I learned more about teaching...yes, I need to learn to how to teach... I have a lot more tips to share with you than when the book was written so that you can shorten your learning curve and be more successful when starting out to make French beaded flowers.
If you are a needle and thread beader, just know that it’s completely different than French beading where we use wire instead of thread. When you put the beads in place with thread, it looks absolutely perfect no matter your beading level. I used to dabble a bit with beadweaving. It’s different with wire. Just know that it’s okay if your first attempts are not perfect. Perfection comes from practice. Your first flowers will be messy but you need to start! Let’s start with your first messy flower!
Outro:
Now question of the day, what’s holding you back from starting French beading? Will you finally take the plunge today?
I put together some kits and listed it in my Etsy shop. Limited kits are available so grab yours today. The Bead and Button show was originally postponed but now it’s cancelled. With how the pandemic is going, they felt it was for the best. So, good news for you! I’ve listed some bead kits in my etsy shop that I made exclusively for the bead show. Each kit includes all the materials you’ll need to make the project. Connect with me on facebook and instagram where I’ll announce when I list a new kit.

We tried this, please support our channel
Thank you! I check out your video. Your rose is absolutely beautiful :)
Have been wanting to learn how to make flowers with seed beads, & just found your page. Was not able to watch it all but have it saved. If you don't have it in the instructions, & with me being new can you tell us how many beads you are using for each item? Thank you for sharing with us. Am so looking forward to trying & learning when my schedule will allow me.
Like Gayl... to make 5 flowers, it's 10 grams of petal color beads and 15 grams of green for leaves.
Thank you so much for teaching this 💜
You're so welcome! :)
Is there anyway you can show how to make Dandelions? These are great Tips. Ty. 😊 These are so cute. I love them.
Dandelions have been on my wish list forever! I'm still trying to figure out the best way to make the leaves. It's kind of tricky.
If i dont have 24 gauge would you use 26 or 22 gauge instead?
how many beads do you load onto the wire for the petals. You already had them loaded on the wire but didn't mention how many beads or how many inches of beads you loaded. thank you
Hi Mary, for these flowers about 18 inches. I generally don't measure out the length of beads. The best thing to do is to string as much as you can on the wire. Though I will make a note to mention it on new videos :).
@@BeadFlora thank you
Want to buy instruction book
Here are all the places you can find the book :) beadflora.com/book/
Can I use beads with 16 gauge floral stem wire. If so what size? Thanks
16 gauge wire to too thick to string beads on. use 24 gauge wire instead.
@@BeadFlora 😊 Thanks
What size of beads?
I use size 11 (2mm) seed beads
