 The paper beads have bigger holes and would need spacers like silver spacers, metal beads or seed beads in size 80 or 60.

I made this necklace with pastel pink paper beads (Aubrey’s Beads), and mixed it with left over beads; white quarts, dyed pink pearls and pink firepolish crystals.  It is about 28 inches long and looks pretty worn long or as double strand.

This is a very elegant piece, and can be worn casual or formal.  The fresh water pearls I put in just took it up a notch.  Pink and pearls together is very feminine, you put it on and you instantly feel pretty.  The paper beads make it so light and dainty.  You can of course make this in different colors and use whatever leftover beads you have in your box.
