Layer, Stack Together – day 60
Diamond shape paper beads in magazine colors are mixed with heshi in this necklace which is meant to be layered. Just like the stacking rings, you can certainly wear two or three at the same time.
I love making these, because they are so simple to do. All you need is medium beading wire, crimp beads and magnetic clasp.
Here it is, stacked with the coral and round paper beads.
I promise I will do a tutorial so you can see how easy they are to make 🙂
Read MoreBeaded Flowers by Linda
I am sharing with you today the work of Linda Barnett. Aside from her new hobby of making paper beads, she makes these beautiful beaded flowers, a craft that she learned from her grandmother. Linda lives in the U.K. but was kind enough to send me her beautiful flowers, it is not too late for us to be wearing these. The flowers had stems, but Kayla and I thought that it is better displayed on strands of olive shaped paper beads.
The olive shaped paper beads were just strung on a beading wire and the flowers were just wire wrapped into the strands.
How about a head band made out of paper beads and these flowers on top?
I love this soft pink paper beads, it went so well with Linda’s flowers
Another day of turning ordinary into extraordinary!
Jingle, Jangle
If you have the patience to make really small paper beads, then this project is for you 🙂 Each of the tiny paper beads, about 4-5mm in size is put through a jump ring then connected to the chain to make these beautiful set that jingles and jangles when you wear them.
I tried it on, and the bead feels so nice to the touch you cannot help but play with them.
Did you know that these beads are also water resistant?
Another day from ordinary to extraordinary!

Paper Bead Clusters
I think the word cluster is a more appropriate name for these paper bead balls, because it is a cluster of tiny paper beads and seed beads all bunched up together to form kind of a ball. We are coming up with a ring to go with it, we’ll see how that will turn up, in the meantime here’s the Paper Bead Clusters Necklace and Earrings:
This will look pretty all year round
If you wind it on your wrist three times it will look like this or you can make a bracelet as well
