more paper beads

I love layers of these necklaces. Piles of them! The more the better!

from my stash of paper beads

 

I've been making beads from papers I hand painted and heavily textured (a fun experiment to see what effects I could get when the bead was rolled) and my old advertising promotions, the beads were coated with several layers of non-toxic polycrylic and strung with African clay, bone, howlite, and/or Czech glass. Love how they turned out! Light weight statement necklaces!
