New Style

A few days ago I got quite a bit of junk mail in my mailbox at my apartment, and while looking at it I realized I could probably make some pretty good beads out of it! There were some long brochure-like ads with lots of colour, so I figured it would be worth cutting them up and using them for something! They ended up being nice round beads that were good and fat. So I thought I'd try a new style of bracelet with them. I first connected them to a bit of chain...

I used different small beads on either side of the paper beads for extra style
Then I just kind of kept going, and made another strand similar to this one, and then used some of my other longer/smaller beads to string a 3rd strand. I put them all together, and got this:





I really like it! Something totally different, and fun! It's for sale on my etsy shop for $12! Check it out
