Green Goddess Earrings – day 86

Posted on Mar 27, 2011 in 365 Paper Bead Creations | 1 comment

This pair of Green Goddess Earrings definitely frames the face, takes an ordinary outfit from casual to casual chic:) Using bead caps is a good way to enhanced your bead, in this project I used diamond shaped paper beads and chose a nice magazine color and encased it with silver bead caps.

As Seen In Beading Magazine

Posted on May 17, 2010 in Paper Bead Creations | Comments Off on As Seen In Beading Magazine

One great source for inspiration and ideas is looking through beading magazines and there are several that offer how-to’s and tutorials.  I love collecting them and going through them once in a while.  I found an old article from Bead Style Magazine, their September 2003 issue on Eastern Influence Earrings.  While these are great pair of earrings I wanted to see them in paper beads.

Instead of the swarovski crystals I use the small round paper beads instead.

I got the gold discs on sale from Joann’s which is similar to what was used by Bead Style.
