Paper Beads

The kids enjoy their Family Fun magazine each month. Thank you Raeann Mulcahy and family!

Today we tried our hand at making paper beads like the ones in this month's magazine.It was very fun.Even some of the boys wanted to join in the fun. I do not have pictures of finished jewelry but I do have some pictures of the making of the paper beads.

As you look at the pictures you might be wondering where are the rest of the girls.They would have enjoyed making the beads. Well, they were upstairs playing a fun matching game and by the sounds and thumping I heard probably a little dancing or acrobatics as well.

Here are Elena,Grant,Alan,and Anya hard at work making their beads



Josh and Joel working hard.



Here is Joel's paper bead. He is so proud.



Here are a few of Grant's beads. He spent some time making sure his beads looked more masculine.He did a good job picking out the colors.



Here is my attempt at making these beads look all fancy in the pretty dish.What do you think?




Anya was worked on a mosaic picture while some of us were making paper beads.
