Paper Bead Bangle – day 182

Posted on Jul 12, 2011 in 365 Paper Bead Creations | 3 comments

I make one or two things each day and when I am in that “create, create, create” mood, 5 pieces or more.  Paper bead jewelry ideas are endless!  The Paper Bead Bangle is my favorite, it is something that I can just grab and go and it completes my out fit.  It is easy to put on because of the magnetic clasp and for those of you who worries that it may fall off I attached a safety chain:)DSCN9194blog1

I used 22 gauge wire to string the paper beads and wrapped the wire once in between beads and around each bead.  I have tutorial on how to make this, please look under tutorial if you are interested in how to make one.

Another easy breezy pair of earrings.  This is a great way to display those special beads you made and you only need two!  They look so pretty hanging from your ears, swinging back and forth, back and forth………

How To: Take an eye pin the length of your bead.  For this pair I use a one inch eye pin, put your paper bead and do another simple loop on the other end.  Open the loops and attached you chain.  The whole process takes 5 minutes.
