Hand Made Dictionary Beads!

Today I have a project that I'm sure you may have seen before but I like to think that I've kicked it up a notch....  paper beads!


These are a bit different that the usual beads...instead of using magazine pages or cardstock/pattern paper I used dictionary pages and for a bit more of a professional look I glued eyelets into each end and covered them with a couple layers of clear embossing powder.  They look like glass beads IRL.

For complete instructions please see:
