BEAD MAKING - OUR BEAD ARTISANS

Paper is selected based on color and pattern
Step 2:
The paper is cut into long or short triangles, with a wide or narrow end, resulting in beads of various sizes and shapes.
Step 3:
Rolling begins. Starting with the thick end of each triangle.
Step 4:
A small dab of glue is placed at the end and the paper is rolled tightly around a needle

After beads are created, they are covered with several coats of glaze.
