I created these when i found that the inside of the plastic folders would break if you put too much in them. Being the packrat that i am, i did not want to get rid of them!! So i made what i always need... BEADS!

-
Find one of your plastic file folders from school. This should be one of the thicker ones so the beads are more solid.
-
Cut the folder into strips that are the size of the bead that you want.
-
Now roll the plastic and glue down the end with hot glue. Hold until the glue cool or dip it in water.
-
Now, take your hot glue gun and begin to cover the out side with the hot glue. Use a motion going back and forth for maximum coverage.
As you cover the bead dip it into your cup of water to cool it down so you can touch it. -
And...your done!! Please show you own versions if you make them. I would love for someone to improve on them!
