Have you ever thought of trying to make the paper beads? Well, if not, then you should try it someday. For this project, you will not spend much and in fact, you can spend all the recycled materials in your house. Some of these materials will include magazines or old emails. Other essentials will be the glue and toothpicks. Keep reading to know how to do this exactly.
The first thing that you need to take care of is getting the right materials for this project. Well, since you will not be looking to spend any dime on this project, it is then a better idea you do use the old writing sheets that can be recycled. This will include the invalid calendars and the magazines you are done reading. You can also make use of the junk mail; nobody will need them after they already read them.
Secondly, you need to find the other supply its including the scissors and writing sheet cutter. Both of these will be used to cut the writing sheet into strips. If you got one, it is quite enough. Make sure that you also get some toothpicks and nail polish. If you miss one of these at home, then you can ask for help from your neighbor.
After you are done prepping, cut the magazine pages into strips. If you have other sheet, you just cut it the same way. You will cut the pages in half, or even cut the whole page into quarter strips, the way you fancy it. Then cut the half pages into diagonal shapes where you will get the triangular shaped paper strips.
Take your glue and your toothpick. Well, this is the stage where you will have to be very careful or else you will end up having too much glue on your hands that you will mess the whole project. Take one sheet strip and a toothpick. Roll the paper on the toothpick and apply glue on the open side. Roll it all around the toothpick in such a way that you get a circular shape. Remove the toothpick and place the sheet roll on the table.
Now you can seal the sheet. One thing with sheet is that when it comes into contact with water, then it gets spoil. You certainly do not want this. Get some nail polish and put it on the writing sheet. With this, it will act as a coating and if water comes into contact with a bead, then it will not do some real damage.
String the beads on a cord. Take ant string and the start putting the beads through the holes that the toothpick left. Well, you can string them in a certain order, one that will create a pattern or just put them according to your liking.
You can also create several knots to help you tie the cord well. In addition, you have your bracelet. You can put it on and try the new look. If it is too fitting then you can adjust on the knots.
