Last week I came across this VIDEO which was part of Craft TV Weekly's short lived Plum & Verdigris series. Nikki shared how to create paper beads and how to make unique pieces of jewelry with them. I had several small strips and miscellaneous scraps of the beautiful Pattered Basics Brights papers left from some of my recent blog posts, and thought, these would make perfect paper beads.
 |
| Use a craft knife and ruler to cut the papers. |
 |
| Choose interesting stamps to add embossing to your rolled beads. |
 |
| These are some of the beads I created. |
 |
| Large bracelet created with paper beads. |
 |
| My daughter loved this one and asked if she could have it. |
 |
| It fit her perfectly! |
I hope you will check out the video and make your own paper bead jewelry.
Have a great week and thanks for stopping by!
