These are so easy to make and they help settle bead addiction (I have it bad). This would be a great project to do with kids. It does get a little messy, so be warned.
1
Take a few sheets of A4 paper and cut it in to strips length ways.
2
Make a glue like paste out of 1 parts water to 1 part flour. Mix together well.
3
Take a stick, I used a cocktail skewer, and wrap a piece of paper up around it.
4
Cover the paper in paste.
5
Push the bead down the stick and then repeat until the stick is full.
6
Let the beads dry and then remove them from the stick.
7
Paint and decorate the beads.
