In autumn, nature is full of bright colors, which makes anyone incredibly happy. Every autumn there are several bright days, when the sun is still warm, the leaves are glowing with red-orange colors, and the mountain ash is waving its red tassels. Today we will talk about how to make a rowan branch quickly and easily with your own hands.
We sculpt a rowan branch with our own hands from plasticine in MK
Plasticine is an excellent material for modeling enthusiasts. Children especially love to sculpt something from plasticine. Making a rowan brush from plasticine with your own hands is very simple; for this we need very little material:
- Plasticine black, black, orange, green, brown;
- Scalpel or plasticine knife;
- Modeling board;
Instead of a board, the basis can be a sheet of colored cardboard. You need to take a piece of brown plasticine and roll it into a rod of arbitrary length, up to half a centimeter thick, this will be the basis for the twig. We cut the workpiece into any number of branches and branches, you can make 2-4 pieces, on one side we make an end converging into a thin line. Then we mold the blanks in the shape of a twig onto the base.
Let's start sculpting rowan berries. We tear the orange plasticine into small pieces and roll into pea-sized balls, about 10 pieces. You need to glue a small black or brown dot to each berry. To make the berries look like real ones, you need to make small cuts or scratches at each point.
We sculpt the leaves from green and yellow plasticine, you can also add a few orange ones. The leaves should not be too large; after you cut out several leaves from a block of plasticine, you should give them a design; this can be done perfectly with a toothpick
The finished composition should be similar to the one shown in the photo.
Crochet rowan with diagrams and job description
The leaf is knitted according to this pattern.
- Cast on 10 air loops (VP) in the chain.
- Next we knit in the back loop, insert the hook into the second loop and pull it out.
- Yarn over.
- Insert the hook into the next back half loop and pull out the loop. There will be two loops on the hook.
- Yarn over to the end of the chain and pull out a loop in the next back half loop. There should be a total of 18 loops on the hook.
- We close the loops. We make a yarn over. Pull the yarn through the first three loops in one go.
- After yarn over, pull the thread through the next three loops again. Repeat until there are 4 loops left on the hook.
- Yarn over three loops; there will now be 2 loops on the hook.
- Yarn over and pull the thread through the remaining 2 loops, the row is closed, and 1 loop remains on the hook.
- After this, the second side is knitted, the knitting is turned to the other side and knitted on the opposite side with a chain of air loops, each time inserting the hook into the remaining half-loop
- Insert the hook into the second loop from it, pull it out and yarn over.
- Pull out the next loop, leaving four loops on the hook.
- Repeat until the end of the chain.
- Closing the loops. Yarn over Pull the thread through three loops at a time. Repeat yarn over and pull through. Until there are four loops left.
- Yarn over Pull through three loops, two remain.
- Yarn over, pull through two.
The second side of the leaf is also ready.
There is also a scheme for berries:
- Cast on a chain of 4 chain stitches, then close into a SS circle.
- 8 single crochets in a ring. Do not close the circular row SS.
- Continue sc over completed row.
- Insert the hook into the ring each time.
- In total, perform 44 single crochets in the round.
- Single crochets will be placed on top of each other, tie tightly and form a berry.
- Break the thread and unroll the work. The wrong side of the knitting is the front side for the berry.
By making several berries and leaves in this way, you can form a crocheted composition.
Let's look at another simple option - a sprig of rowan from beads
For lovers of bead weaving, there is also an option for a rowan branch.
For this we need small green beads, cutting, red-pink beads, brown beads, cutting. We will weave on a base of copper wire.
The first step is to make a rowan tassel. To do this, we collect branches of any length brown, and at the tip a red-pink bead is secured with a brown bead. You need to make about 12 of these berries. Several rowan trees can be attached to one branch.
- 1 piece;
2-4. 2 pieces each;
5-7. 3 pieces each;
8-10. 4 pieces each;
11-13. 5 pieces each;
14-16. 4 pieces each;
17-19. 3 pieces each;
20-22. 2 pieces;
- 1 piece.
Each branch has 13 leaves. The general view of the composition is shown in the photo.
We learned how to make a rowan sprig using three different needlework techniques. As you can see, this is not difficult to do. This craft will be a rather colorful decoration for your room. We also invite you to watch a short video collection on how to make a sprig of rowan quickly and easily with your own hands

Preparations for the winter
What can you cook from rowan berries?
1:504 1:509Red rowan is a largely underrated berry. We admire its autumn beauty, but at the same time we know quite little about the healing properties of this berry, about the methods of its preparation and about culinary recipes using it. Mid-autumn is the right time to collect rowan; it is usually recommended to do this after the first frost.
1:1102 1:1107In count vitamin C rowan is only slightly inferior to lemon, and carotene it contains even more than carrots. In addition, rowan is a source vitamins PP, group B, it is able to cope with bacteria harmful to the body such as salmonella and staphylococcus. Rowan berries due to the content they contain sorbitol can lower cholesterol levels, and their constituent pectin improves intestinal function, suppresses increased gas formation.
1:19451:4
Rowan is a strong antiseptic. Its fruits contain a huge amount sorbic acid, which indicates the unique properties of protecting canned and fresh foods from spoilage, since this substance with helps inhibit the growth of microorganisms. For example, fresh fish will not spoil for a long time if you wrap it in rowan leaves.
1:618 1:623Rowan berries rich in pectins, which are very beneficial for the intestines and gastrointestinal tract in general. Pectins contribute suppression of carbohydrate fermentation, reduction of gas formation. It is thanks to pectins that rowanberry jam is so tasty and healthy! The essential oil contained in rowan berries has a unique aroma.
1:1209 1:1214So draw your conclusions - is it worth using the healing and health-improving fruits of rowan in your diet?! Of course!
1:1436 1:1441 2:19452:6
Rowan grows everywhere. Near my house, near work, on the highway on the way to the dacha. I used to think it was an ornamental tree. But it turns out that you can make healthy juice, delicious jam, aromatic wine, healing syrup from rowan berries, and even use them in canning!
2:502 2:509Cut off the rowan clusters along with the berries. Rowan fruits retain their healing properties throughout the winter. You can dry the rowan by first removing the stems. Dry the berries in the oven, spreading them in a thin layer on a baking sheet.
2:924 2:929The fruits must be collected after the first frost, the bark is better during the period of sap flow, but it is also possible in winter. You can collect rowan before frost by placing it in the freezer for 12 hours. In this case, the bitterness will disappear, and rowan can be used to prepare delicacies and healing decoctions.

Have you ever wanted to create a fake with your own hands? Making a small tree, such as rowan, using beadwork is a fun process. Weaving trees with beads is not limited to strict instructions; you can always get creative and add something of your own.
Features of beading
If this is your first experience creating a small craft with your own hands, then it is better to refer to the video instructions. It is better to choose larger beads for work, because you do not yet have the dexterity that is required for filigree small work. The material comes in various colors, which will allow you to realize your fantasies; in addition, budget collections of beads are available for beginners, which is also important. Schemes of a variety of ideas can be found on Internet sites, or, when you have more experience and your hand is full, come up with it yourself.
How to make a rowan from beads with your own hands
Beaded rowan is a simple decoration that makes an excellent gift. To create you will need the following items:
- beads of different sizes;
- dense thread;
- wire;
- decorative stand.
Let's get started:
- For each leaf you need to build nine small parts. You should start by creating small parts. Each leaf will be built on five rows. Only one green bead is used for the first and last rows, and two for the central ones.
- The nine resulting parts must be combined into a sheet. To do this, you need to twist three small parts at the very base, and then attach other elements to them in pairs.
- We repeat the above 14 times. The beaded leaves are ready.
- It's time for the grapes. You need to take the wire, measure the length - 65 cm, then step back ten cm from the edge, attach the first bead. To secure it, you then need to twist the ends.
- After two centimeters we string the next bead, then re-twist it. In this way you need to put on ten beads.
- All berry beads should be twisted.
- Repeat steps 4-6 to get three identical bunches.
- Then assemble a brush from them. To do this, place them one on top of the other, then twist them at the junction.
- Complete seven red clusters.
- The completed parts must be wrapped with thread to form the branches of our tree.
- The clusters and leaves should be connected carefully, twisting their bases.
- After making a small indent, you need to attach another bunch of leaves.
- We collect seven such branches. At the base of each part you need to add a winding with a beautiful thread.
- Take part of the wire, which will be the trunk, and gradually attach branches to it.
- Each attachment point should be closed with threads.
- Make a stand: for this you can use plasticine or plaster, then “plant” the finished tree there.
Beaded berries
Do-it-yourself bead trees are assembled gradually. Any craft made from small beads is reminiscent of origami: you need to repeat the same steps. First you need to string the beads onto the wire, then twist it. Having put on ten beads in this way, they should then be connected to each other, creating peculiar bunches. They are already gathering in clusters. You need to weave 10-11 such bunches.
Leaves
The next step is to create leaves using green beads. The parallel weaving technique is used. One bead is strung on the first row, then two, and one again on the last row. There should be seven rows in total. Then these details are combined into a single piece of paper, familiar from childhood. First, three elements are combined, everything is twisted at the base, and then the remaining ones are attached in pairs.
Rowan branch
The penultimate stage is the creation of tree branches. You need to take the finished leaf, along with one bunch. Place them on top of each other and rewind the base. Then put the next leaf and attach it again, and after that take a bunch. The final step is to repeat everything again, ending with a piece of paper. You should get a neat branch. In order to hide the wire, you can use brown threads.
Wood assembly
The finishing line is the formation of the trunk. Thick wire will become the basis of the future tree. You need to wrap branches around it from top to bottom. You shouldn’t stop at the standard arrangement of branches and berries; you can experiment and try to bend the branches in different directions and evaluate how it looks. Having found the ideal angle, secure this position with threads. The beaded rowan is ready!

Video tutorials on weaving rowan from beads
Complex instructions are not suitable for beginners in this kind of weaving, so it is better to refer to video tutorials on making cute crafts. Masters of their craft will tell you how the work should be done, what size of wire to measure, and how many beads to take. What techniques can be used to convey the effect of a winter or autumn tree and how to create its chokeberry variety?
Salt dough gives you the opportunity to make with your hands something that sometimes you cannot keep alive. A sprig of rowan will lift your spirits at any time of the year with its beauty and brightness. This is what we will be sculpting today. To get started, let's prepare:
- salt dough of two colors: red and green.
- birch branches;
- old disk;
- We will also need gouache when designing the finished work.
Arrange the branches on the disk the way we need them. It is better to remove the excess length of branches.
Make oblong shaped leaves from green dough. Using a stack or a toothpick, draw a design inside the leaf. We begin to lay out the leaves on the branch. We fasten the parts together in a simple way - wet and attach.
We form a bunch of rowan berries from the balls of red dough. On the berries we mark the center pattern with a cross.
On the remaining branches we make leaves of the same size.
Dry the finished rowan branch in the usual way, but if you are in a hurry, then place the branch in the oven, heating to 80 degrees, for 5-6 hours. Then paint with gouache in appropriate tones to add brightness to the work. When the paint is dry, coat with acrylic varnish for shine.
Glue the bunch onto the base with universal glue. This is such an autumn picture you got! Isn't it beautiful? Based on materials from the site http://www.millionpodarkov.ru/
In autumn, nature is full of bright colors, which makes anyone incredibly happy. Every autumn there are several bright days, when the sun is still warm, the leaves are glowing with red-orange colors, and the mountain ash is waving its red tassels.
