Whole Whirld beads - poetry assortment 30 pcs BACKORDER

Description

Back by popular demand, my paper beads are currently available on a backorder basis (I have several batches drying/curing which will be shipped as they are ready). ***Once your order has been placed, please allow up to 1 week for your order to be prepared to ship (may be shorter, since the assembly line is in full production again :)). Thanks for looking!

These are my own version of handcut, handrolled recycled paper beads. I make each one by hand from used magazine and catalog pages, then carefully glaze them. The difference is a bright, smooth, glass-like finish which illuminates the attributes of the recycled paper underneath and extends the life of the beads. This is a selection of my "poetry" style rolled beads. They are made from the pages of a vintage book, so words and letters (and the occasional splash of black & white illustrations) can be seen on many of them.

I use my handmade paper beads in numerous projects (some of which can be seen here in my shop), and am now making them available to others. They are great for jewelry, altered art, scrapbooking, and more (wouldn't these make an amazing beaded curtain?) You'll receive a labeled resealable bag of 30 unique beads in various sizes. No two beads are exactly alike. Though they are paper, and should be kept from excessive moisture, they boast several coats of gloss varnish, so they are able to withstand limited contact with water. If you'd like to order quantities, or need to purchase wholesale, please convo me.

Thanks so much for looking - please take a look at some of the items here in my shop made with paper beads:
