Handmade Store: Paper Violet

All bracelets and necklaces are from cards and paper I have collected over many years. I hate to throw anything away especially cards then one weekend I saw a girl at a craft fair making beads from scrapbook paper and thought I could do that, so I did. Through trial, error and youtube I found what worked for me and soon I was spenting all my spare time rolling beads and making bracelets. I do everyting by hand from cutting the paper to using a kabob skewer to roll the beads then I paint each one with at least four coats of acrylic varnish making the beads water resistant but not water proof. There are endless possibilities to personalize your own choice of bead shape, size and colour in what ever length you want.
