Long time ago, I bought this really cool "Creating Extraordinary BEADS From Or Ordinary Materials" by Tina Casey book at B&N, trying create myself handmade beads and make stitch marker to sell on my store. I had extra time last weeken, so been making a paper bead and wireing the beads into stitch makers!

This is instruction shows how to make paper beads and painting of the beads in this book.


So this this the beads. Just use of colored construction paper and craft acrylics paints and last clear coat of clear nail polish, creat this lovely paper bead!


And wireing the beads into stitch markers. I really like does stitch markers are comes out and it is much lighter then regular stone beaded!

And close up pic of yellow construction paper with dark-red and pink dot painted outline. I add little wooden beads to each end of stitch marker.

And finsh product with cover with each of my "Cool Budda Tonic" label. Done!
