In the Mood for Mod Paper Bead Necklace-Softflex Giveaway!

Posted on Jan 11, 2010 in Paper Bead Creations | 10 comments

Sara of Softlex, the number one choice of beaders for their jewelry stringing material was kind enough to donate three spools of Softflex in beautiful hues of greens.  Do you know that they have fun projects and free tutorials on their website?  Check it out at: www.softflexcompany.com.  They came up with beading wire in a rainbow of colors, no need to hide your wire, this is meant to be shown and be a part of your design.  Here is a project idea, that I did with softflex medium in violet color.  Don’t you love the mod colors in this necklace?  I found these beads on sale at Jo-Ann’s fabric store.  The paper beads I used are the diamond shape in coordinating colors and the extra small round beads.

This is the Softlex Trios in Irish greens I am giving away, courtesy of Sara.

Rules?  There are no rules, all you have to do is email me or leave me a comment, just tell me a little bit about yourself.  For inspiration and ideas on how to use the softflex wire,visit them at Softlex

The materials I used for the Mod Paper Bead Necklace are the following:

Softflex medium in amethyst color.  The hot pink looks so pretty too, I’d say it’s cotton candy color.

Think Pink Bead Rehab Giveaway

Posted on Nov 2, 2009 in Paper Bead Creations | 1 comment

The Rock Candy Paper Bead bracelets I have on etsy is one of my best selling items and I get a lot of emails asking me for a less expensive alternative for the crystals that are used.  In one of my trips to the local thrift store I found some fun necklaces that are made of lucite and plastic beads and one of them is made of pink plastic bead with a nugget shape to it.  I don’t think I want to wear the necklace by itself, so I took it apart and mix it with paper beads to give it “character”.  I love the finished bracelets, they look chunky but light.
