Seed Pearls and Paper Beads

Posted on Jan 12, 2010 in Paper Bead Creations | 2 comments

I love the shape of the Olive shaped Paper Beads and the neutral colors of this particular strands, it is such a lovely match for the olive shaped wood beads and the seed pearls.  I saw something similar on a popular tv show worn by supposedly the wife of a prime minister.  This, I think is even more special because I added paper beads into the mix.

Combine it with the Brown and Champagne color Seed Pearls for a three strand necklace.

I used Softflex in bronze color medium.

I fashioned the pendant out of 22 gauge wire and embellished it with pearls and crystal charms.

Is it fit for a wife of a Prime Minister?  I don’t know.  I would certainly wear it, with anything casual or dressy.

I hope I have inspired you today, to make something with paper beads.
