After weighing all our options, we decided on pairing these beautiful gold paper beads with jet black swarovski crystals. I think this will look good with little back dress or plain white shirt with jeans, we finished it off with black pleather cord. As I mentioned in earlier post the beads were made out of gold label box and were tightly rolled with metal paper bead roller.
The pleather cord give is that casual look and you can easily just wear gold button earrings to go with it.
We could just have made it with the paper beads strung all around in a 16 inch necklace, but I thought this gives it more a not too formal look
Can you tell they’re paper beads?
We have enough beads left over for a pair of earrings and bracelet, or maybe another necklace.
I really love crafting with Paper beads…it’s fun and educational. Teaches folks to look at materials in a whole different way!
Hi Ginger!
I totally agree! Thank you for stopping by. Janice Mae
The little black swarovski crystals do bring out the gold in the necklace. I say it came out amazing.
