We are gearing up for the L.A. Gift Show in July and we’re looking for something inexpensive, easy to make but has the “wow” factor!  The answer? Magazine Rings in all colors; topped with charms or crystals they are a sure conversation piece.

What’s amazing about these beads is that they are reversible, it’s kind of hard to decide which side you want to show.

We made quite a few of them, topped with different coordinating crystals.

The swirls look like tree rings so I named them Magazine Rings.

I made one with a dragon fly charm on a chain, this is whimsical and playful.

Twisted With Shells – day 135

Posted on May 17, 2011 in 365 Paper Bead Creations | 2 comments

I found this twisted shell necklace at a souvenir shop by the beach.  It’s pretty but looks ordinary and it needs some color.  Paper beads to the rescue!  Small round paper beads vibrant in color added interest to the necklace, don’t you think?

Paper beads can definitely be wearable!
