Gift Wrap Paper Beads
What do you do with last year’s gift wrapping paper? You can use them again this year and you will have same looking presents from last year, or…..turn them into paper beads! This is what my sister Joann did, I mainly depend on her on making the paper beads and I make them into finished jewelry – division of labor at work 
What else can you do with them? I think they will make nice garlands to trim your Christmas Trees!
The nice thing about the gift wrapping paper, you can cut long triangle strips and when you roll them, they make a more round shape or oblong shaped paper beads.
Christmas tree garland can be expensive and they are heavy, the tree branches cannot hold them up sometimes, I think this would just be perfect for it!
Another day of turning the ordinary to extraordinary!
Wow those are so beautiful and colorful! How do they get that chunky? I’ve tried it and they come out so thin. My favorite is the blue ones
I love your nails too

These ones are so neat! They look as if they have been hand painted or something. Great job!
This is really cool! Love the colors and the different sizes of the beads Joann. Wish I could find wrapping paper like that!
