How To Make Paper Beads For Dummies

By Christine Morgan


There are many times when you simply want a way to reuse the scraps and old pages that you no longer have any purpose for, but feel bad about just throwing away and don't have very many convenient recycling options, if any, in your local area. That is a great reason to learn how to make paper beads. You will find yourself looking forward to gathering up all of the spare junk papers, magazines, newspapers, and old mail.

With so many different types of art projects, you have to put so much money into it that it doesn't really seem worth it in the end. Luckily with paper beads, it does not have to cost that much at all. Once you learn how to make them, you will have no trouble at all keeping it within your budget, and after you have all your starting supplies it probably won't cost you a thing from then on.

The attractive nature of a bead like this makes many people want to put it on their backpacks, jackets, wear it as jewelry, or even wear it in their hair, particularly if the person has dreadlocks or wears braids frequently. It is such a unique and fun way to accessorize. You might be surprised by how beautiful the end result is when you think about the supplies when you first started.

Sometimes a parent might be tempted to discourage their kids from certain types of crafts because they make such a mess. During certain times of year, it can be impossible to minimize messiness by having the kids do their crafts outside because it is just too cold or otherwise inclement. That is why an activity like this which actually helps to cut down on the clutter instead of add to it is ideal.

There are so many different types of projects that you can make with these sorts of designs. It might be overwhelming at first, so you will probably just want to pick something simple and see how it turns out. If you don't like one design, you might just move onto the next one and see how it looks to you.

Some papers come with a design already made on them. It can be a lot easier that way to make a bead if you've never done it before. These are easy to find and print onto regular sheets.

Those who are particularly creative might enjoy designing their very own bead. It can be more fun this way because everything is much more customizable. This should only be done by those who are willing to take a little extra time and effort.

There aren't too many supplies that you'll need, but it's important to get them all before you start. That way, you won't have to stress out about running to the store at the last minute. Your project might not turn out the way you want it to if that happens.
