It’s not always that we find words on our beads, so to solve that problem you can cut out words and paste it on your bead. Choose nice words from junk mail, old books, magazines, cut it out and just apply it onto already made bead.
Here’s how I did it:
I’ve had these beads for a long time because frankly I didn’t know what to do with them. My sister made them for me, they are big – 1 1/2 inches long, 1 1/4 inch wide and hollow inside. It “spoke” to me the other day to make something fun with it and so I [...]
I am starting a new shop in etsy: Paperbeadsprincess it will be filled with beads and findings that I love and I’m sure you will too. I made this Song Hits Necklace accented with beautiful Tear Drop mother of pearl which you can find in my new shop. The paper beads used here is made [...]

I added fine silver chains to give it movement. I love big earrings and this is [...]
I thought I will do a post on something Valentine(y). I caught the “Bibs” fever lately and couldn’t stop making them! It’s like piecing a puzzle together using paper beads, or a mosaic.
Special Announcement: I am going back to Jewelry Television with a new kit and a “how to make” the beaded bib on January [...]
I always admire when I see a beaded bib worn as a necklace or attached to a neckline of a top. It is a fun project, the kind that somehow surprises you with what the outcome would be. I gathered, old trinkets, buttons, mismatch earrings, some beads and paper beads of course and proceeded to [...]
I finally got a chance to make something with Blister Pearl Pendant that I’ve had for years. Are you like me who likes to “impulse buy” (mostly with me this applies to buying beads) ? You end up with beads, pendants, findings ………..someday you can make into something when inspiration strikes:)
This is such a feminine [...]
This is such a cool piece that can be worn both old and young, men and women. What happens when you mix waxed cotton yarn, paper beads, firepolished crystals together? You will have the ultimate mixed media piece that is not only fashion forward but also something wearable. This will be just a part of [...]
