 Paper beads, and more paper beads

 Paper bead ear-rings....all mine

The only bad bit about making these beads is the glue on my fingers..every bead means gummy fingers, then washing fingers followed by gummy fingers....experimenting with thicker paper and more strips held together, burnt the first lot of big beads in the too hot oven, they went a lovely sepia colour, sadly no good to use, they are now sitting looking not very pretty in a little clay  bowl
