Recycled Paper Jewelry - How To Links

In case you missed our fabulous event last Tuesday, here are some sites to help you make your own paper beads, bracelets, and rings at home!

We had cardboard templates for our beads, but Rookie has great instructions for paper beads from scratch here: http://rookiemag.com/2012/04/paperbeads-diy/

Here's another tutorial with how to make different shapes of beads (We used some of these templates on Tuesday): http://www.tappi.org/paperu/art_class/paperBeads.htm

Now for a bracelet tutorial (we used a different one, but this one has lots of pictures): http://fluffyland.com/blog/index.php/starburst-wrapper-bracelet-tutorial/

This braided paper bracelet is also a neat one to try: http://tallystreasury.com/2011/08/braided-paper-bracelets-and-bookmarks/

Moving on to the ring, this wasn't the one we used, but it was the only one I could find online: http://www.wikihow.com/Fold-a-Dollar-Bill-to-Make-a-Finger-Ring
