How Do You Make A Paper Bead Necklace?
Making paper bead necklaces is an easy way to rid your house of the unwanted clutter of old magazines. It is also an enjoyable craft to do with children. All you need are some old magazines, a little imagination and the following steps. Find a magazine and tear out the most colorful pages. The brighter colors make more eye-catching beads. Cut out several strips of full-length pieces of paper in a triangular shape from the colorful page. Flip all the strips so that the side one doesn’t want visible is facing upward. This will be the inside of the bead. Apply a bit of glue to about the last inch of the pointed end of the triangular strip. Roll the strips of paper into small tubes, starting at the wider end and working toward the pointed end, just like making a crescent roll. Be sure that the opening in each of the paper beads is not too large or too small. The opening should be large enough for the string of the necklace to fit through. Let dry before proceeding. Tie a clasp onto one end
