Wired Beads

I wanted to make one more set of beads for the bead swap on ccswaps. I used a pink paper shopping bag to cut into long strips. Rolled the paper onto a bamboo skewer with Modge Podge as my adhesive. While the beads were still tacky, I dabbed on bronze Perfect Pearls to add shimmer, then added a couple more layers of Modge Podge to give the beads stability. When the beads were dry, I wrapped gold colored wire around them to add texture.
