Well, I don’t know, whether the Dollar bill ring falls in the category ‘elegant’ – but anyway, I find it funny ;-)

Paper Pod Bead
I presented some paper beads before, these paper pod beads have the most interesting shape until now, as I find :)

I’m not sure whether I like the Origami brooch but it’s surely worth a try ;-)

Making Beads
I presented already how I’m making paper beads, somebody shows here most beautiful other (also paper) beads, the ones on the picture are made from woodchip wallpaper.
Aren’t they beautiful?

Cardboard Cuffs
Every time I see these bracelets I’m thrilled
I didn’t like her ‘old ones’ very much, where she simply glued paper on the cardboard tubes because I find them too massive, but I find the ones with the opening really great!
I still must have such cardboard tubes somewhere, then I only need some wall paper rests or other colourful paper.
Perhaps the paper from the travel brochure? ;-)

Paper Earrings
Sigh, aren’t these earrings beautiful?
My various I-really-must-try-this- and I-really-must-have-this-lists are growing further.

Addendum of June 15, 2010: I got a nice e-mail where she told me that there’s a video with the folding instructions.
Many thanks!

Colourful Safety Pins Bracelet
I really like the colourful safety pins bracelet!
I find it more interesting with the safety pins than the paper bead bracelet where the paper beads are hold together from elastic alone.
Making paper beads really is simple, especially if you use a (self-made) paper beads roller.
You can even give the paper beads a slightly different form if you like to or make the beads from fabric.
However, it’ll be an interesting and beautiful item ;-)
A propos: If the style of the bracelet seems familiar look here ;-)

Recycled Roses
I find these roses from fabric or paper most beautiful, even without wreath!
And it seems that they are easy to make, which does no harm! ;-))
They should look great for jewelry, too, for a ring or earring e.g.?!
If they’re not exactly your cup of tea simply look for flowers from fabric or flowers from paper ;-)
