Paper Beads

This is a really easy project!  You will need magazines, scissors, a pencil, glue and something to string your beads on.

First pick magazine pages that have lots of color-either all one color or a lot of different colors.

Cut the pages into flag shapes (triangles) or long strips.

Roll them tightly around a pencil and place a dab of glue at the end and hold for a second until it sticks. Gently slide beads off the end of the pencil.

Let the beads dry before stringing them.
