Pappi The Fish – day 56

Posted on Feb 25, 2011 in 365 Paper Bead Creations | 7 comments

Something whimsical today, is Pappi the Fish.  I wanted to call her Wanda but I already have a Wanda fish waiting to be adorned with paper beads.  The findings for this project is a line called bead critters usually made up of top and bottom and you provide the bead for the body.

I did one in dyed round mother of pearl necklace, this time natural white color of the MOP show’s off the magazine colors of the tube paper beads well.

A pair of gold earrings would complete this look.

In The Midst Of Gems – day 53

I found a strand of semi precious stones in one of my bead shopping Sundays that was very inexpensive, it was on sale for $4.00.  The strand was about 16 inches and just perfect back drop for tiny magazine colored paper beads.
