Colorful Recycled Book Bead Curtain Art

TrashyCrafter
by TrashyCrafter
I have wanted to make a paper bead curtain for the longest time, but as you can see it takes a crazy amount of time! I used about 1,000 paper beads to make this one! It takes me about a minute to make each paper beads, soooo you can do the math, its kinda nuts. It would have been cool to make a longer one for a doorway, or one for actual curtains, but because of time requirements I made a smaller version with 1,000 paper beads. I rolled every single one of those, there are probably about 25 different books in there, all left over beads that I didn’t have enough to make anything with.

      @TrashyCrafter Maybe old magazines or even the phone book. I love doing artsy-fartsy stuff in the winter since I can't be in my garden.
