Swirls Of Colors -day 27
Browns, greens, red and other earth colors swirls around these bangles made up of tube paper beads mixed with glass with the different color of the cane glass showing through. It looks like what I call “organized chaos” because once you put it on it just looks good together.

It also reminds me of licorice

Here it is worn with the vintage red bangle 🙂

Today, Kayla and I will be setting up our booth at the CHA, couldn’t wait to share with you how it will look like, we have a bigger booth this time! Hooray for paper beads!

Perfectly rounded fuchsia pink paper beads are snuggled inside hematite round bead frame. I love the contrast of the dark pink and the shiny gun metal color of the hematite. I was so glad that these beads fit just perfectly within the bead frames.

Copper And Turquoise – day 25
Turquoise color cross can be found at Michael’s Jewelry Aile, it will look nice with any of your turquoise color paper beads. You always hear me talking about my finds at Michael’s, I just find the inexpensive beads and findings they carry to be a great accessory with paper beads.

All you need is to learn basic stringing technique and you can make any necklace or bracelet with a beading wire, crimp beads and a clasp.


Brass Findings- day24
The dollar store is a great place to find jewelry components that you can take apart and use for paper bead jewelry making. You need to be able to look at something and imagine how it will look like after it has been “rehabilitated”, like this one:

Kayla and I were so happy to see all the cones and what we can do with it 🙂

Olive shaped beads painted with old rose color nail polish are peeking out from the cones like buds. Glass flowers are added into the mix.

Now, all we need are earrings. Let’s see what we can come up with the left over cones.
