Flower Medallion Pendant – day 109

Posted on Apr 20, 2011 in 365 Paper Bead Creations | 1 comment

I love how this Flower Medallion turned out, it started out as a project following a certain pattern and ended up as being free form.  I love using the small paper beads for weaving projects that calls for seed beads, like wire work and peyote stitch, which I want to try one of these days.

I have a video I want to share with you on this piece…..

I love the fact that it can be worn in different ways.

I made little earrings from the left over fresh water pearls with just the hematite color seed beads to match.  I love when you wear matching pieces as long as it’s not too matchy, matchy  🙂

Teal On Lavender Bracelet – day 107

I like the idea of making your own beads, don’t you?  Paper bead making has come a long way, it is not just a kids craft anymore.  With the popularity of mixed media jewelry, beaders and crafters have pushed the limits of their creativity in creating their own beads and incorporating found objects into their pieces.  Here, Kayla made beads out of scrap booking paper using our bamboo paper bead roller.

Kayla, chose the opalescent teal crystal, and the silver bead cap completes the look.

Turquoise blue paper beads are accented with gold “stardust” beads in this necklace and bracelet set.  The bicone beads used here are painted with a nice blue that reminds me of the ocean.

This is something that you can wear all year round, dress it up or dress it down.

I have talked about the recycled printing paper before and made a necklace mixed with gem stone in green and also in plum colors mixed with pearls.  This necklace will take you to the wild side, it is different and unique; shells, paper and crystals are mixed together.
