Making Paper and Fabric Beads with Fran Rose
Fun Projects for Children • Educational, G, 26-Feb-2021
Not just Jewellery
In this little workshop Fran shares with us how to make fabric and paper beads. She suggests you can use fabric from your major project so that the beads co-ordinate. They could then be added to finish off a bag maybe as a zip pull or other textile project, so not just jewellery.
Great for the Kids
They are so easy to make that it’s something you might like to try with the children, particularly the paper ones (just add glue).
If you fancy getting the gadget that Fran demonstrates, it is called: 4M Green Creativity Recycled Paper Beads Kit.
Fran is a passionate beader and for more beading projects, workshops and books/projects, use the quick link Fran Rose.
