DIY Book Pages Made into Beads. Lots of tutorials about winding paper beads and sealing them all over. I posted a really good tutorial on getting specific paper bead shapes and sealing them with varnish here. Photograph above from Helen Lonsdale here.
Guitar String Bracelet
by Tanith Rohe
Handrolled paper beads made from a vintage French book on French history titled “Histoire de France,” hand coiled bronze guitar string beads, sections of brass tubing and a variety of brass objects from vintage clocks. The beads are on annealed steel wire strung on to silver toned copper wire with hand coiled brass wire spacer beads in between each bead.

I am intrigued by paper and it’s versatility. It is a misnomer and full of contradictions. I am continually exploring the possibilities this material unfolds for me. - Artist Phiona Richards
