Christmas Paper Beads
The red and green colors of these paper beads makes them perfect for Christmas jewelry. Kayla added some gold tone beads to complete the Holiday look. Today also I hosted a Christmas party for friends and colleagues and lots of yummy Filipino food, but it’s the dessert that takes the cake 🙂
Kayla and I donned on our Santa hats so we can properly greet you Happy Holidays! We hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your family and friends.
I know it’s hard to see but Kayla and I are both wearing paper bead earrings in this picture. Here’s a close up on the bracelet set.
The necklace and earrings set are on sale on my etsy for $5.00 for the set! Just a reminder to get ahead in your shopping for next year. This will be just as beautiful today and 5 years from now.

A Peek At The C.H.A. Show
Kayla and are excited to be a part of the Craft and Hobby Association for the second time this year. Part of the fun aside from dressing up our booth and getting to display our new line of paper beads is meeting crafters and artists alike and getting up close and personal to new products this year.
These comes in a rainbow of color and they are so vibrant in colors just like candy.
Can you imagine making thousands of these 🙂
Spreading Cheers In Indonesia
Cathy found me through my blog and we have been exchanging emails since then. She has a son Travis who works for the Peace Corps and has what he calls “little rascals” who follows him around. When Cathy told me that she is sending paper beads she has made to Travis for the children, I sent her a bag of my own left over paper beads. Cathy has mastered cutting her beads to precision as evidenced by these necklaces in Christmas colors!
These were made from glittered card stock from Joann’s, and she finds it easier to roll the card stock with the bamboo roller. And since, Cathy and Tom are Pittsburgh Steeler Fans, she made beads in gold and black. I think they turned out great!
Travis, wanted to share some photos of the Little Rascals, getting busy making paper bead bracelets and necklaces.
Children does not need much to make them happy, it is nice to see them appreciate the simple things in life.
I’m sure all of Cathy, Tom and Travis efforts are appreciated as evidenced by these smiling faces 🙂
Another extraordinary day!
