Paper Beads» Paper Beads – Recycled Paper Made Into Paper Bead Jewelry http://paperbeads.org Jewelry Made From Recycled Paper Beads Mon, 30 Jan 2012 03:55:00 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 en hourly 1 Olive Paper Beads Torsade http://paperbeads.org/olive-paper-beads-torsade/ http://paperbeads.org/olive-paper-beads-torsade/#comments Wed, 10 Feb 2010 18:53:33 +0000 JaniceMae http://paperbeads.org/?p=1801 This necklace came about by experimenting how to do what I call a permanent torsade.  A torsade is usually done by twisting several strands of beads and then fastening the clasp to keep the torsade in place.  I find that when you strung them with wire and twist them, it stays in place and would lay beautifully on your neck.  I made this necklace with the extra small olive beads and glass beads.

I would like to try this with pearls and gem stones and maybe in white olive paper beads.

I have not done any video tutorial for this project, I thought that if there is enough request for a video tutorial then I would have to make time to do it.  So, please let me know if it is worth doing a tutorial on how to do this very easy simple style of making a torsade necklace, I need at least 15 requests for a tutorial, you can leave me a comment or email me.
