Burst Of Color Necklace – day126

Paper beads and India glass go so well together!  The deep colors of the India glass echoes the vibrant colors of the paper beads.  We keep going back to the versatility of the long necklace like the Candy Mix Necklace.

You can make it long enough so that it can be wind around your wrist many times.

Vintage Red-day 19

Posted on Jan 19, 2011 in 365 Paper Bead Creations | 5 comments

One of the fun things Kayla and I like to do on a week end is check out garage sales in our area for some beads that we can “rehab” and incorporate with paper beads.  This is one of our finds, vintage red beads with embossed flower and leaves design.  The designs on the beads is we think Asian inspired and black and gold would look nice with it.  Take a look:

We were debating on something with red paper beads or black paper beads.

Black, red and gold somehow spells Asian! Don’t you think ?

Gold daisy spacers just give it the right accent.

The vintage beads cost us a whole $0.25 for six beads, love garage sales and thrift stores!
