A Tutorial on the Sea Anemone Ring
I did a post on this ring a few months back, but no video tutorial. This has been such a popular ring, and just catches everyone’s attention when I wear it. It such a nice cocktail ring or just a “feel good ring”. The ring would take on a different look depending on which ring finding you are using. The trick is to just fill up the loop with as much dangles as you can – which can be quite a challenge, but then you get such rewarding results. I have used the olive shaped paper beads and the small round beads in making these rings.
This ring is made with the small round paper beads.
You can also try and wire wrap the dangles into the ring loop finding instead of the rosary loop.
I hope you have fun this week end making these rings.
Thanks for visiting……..
Read MoreAnother Version of the Ladder Bracelet
If you are new at making paper beads, the tubular shape paper bead, is a good way to start. It should be about an inch long and 1/4 inch wide. You can display more text and color because it is a bigger side bead. Here is another version of the ladder bracelet that Kayla C. came up with using the paper bead tube. It came out really nice and easy enough that even a beginner can do. She used the one inch paper bead tube in green tone and pink tone.
The materials are: paper bead tubes, softflex (medium), magnetic clasp and jump rings. Tools: flush cutter and chain nose pliers.
Here’s the video tutorial:

Evil Eyes Paper Bead Bracelet
Paper bead jewelry is truly versatile in the sense that you can mix it with so many things and make that piece unique. We had fun the other day, going to our local Ross store and chose some inexpensive jewelry that we can take apart and mix it with our paper beads. This particular one, is made with our larger round paper beads and “evil eye beads.”

Tip: You have to end and tie your elastic with a larger hole bead, in this case a paper bead, this way you can hide your elastic knot inside that bead.
