Colored pages from
magazines
Pencil
White glue
String
Cut triangle shapes
from some magazine pages. Small triangles make
smaller beads, larger triangles make larger
beads. Experiment a little, trying several sizes
to make your necklace interesting.
Roll the paper
triangle over a pencil with the wide end down
first. As the point rolls up over the broad side
of the paper, rub a little glue under the pointed
end. Roll tight. Hold it firmly for a few
seconds, to be sure the glue with stick. Then
slide the bead off the pencil.
Make a pile of
beads; then begin stringing them on the string.
Colorful yarn looks fine; dental floss is very
sturdy. Tie a knot with the ends and wear with
pride!
