A Paper Bead Roller Can Give Old Magazines New Life

By William Hill


People who care about the inside of their home are usually on the lookout for the next fresh idea. It may be the latest color, pattern or scheme but the idea is to look like no one else in their social circle. This is why some are turning to recycled items, either in their entirety or as an accent piece. Even if they do not want to travel back into time, a paper bead roller can help with repurposing items already in the home.

Lately, the art of repurposing has taken on new meaning. In its early days, most people who reused old items and attempted to create something new or different did not have the same visual appeal. While the items may have served a purpose, like saving money, few had access or skills to make something fantastic.

Even if two hours seems like a long time, they should consider the time spent driving around and looking for new items. Some people will dedicate an entire day and only come up with a handful of items for a single room. This is okay for people that do not mind ongoing projects or love making things but others may want to use their free time for other matters.

Simple projects that can make a difference are normally small in size but there are cases where embellishments can make a difference. Small or medium beads are very functional around the home. However, it can a nuisance to shop for the right beads or the right size when bead rollers allow the user to make the size they need.

Small beads may be used to make napkin or curtain holders or even create a decorate border on any object. If a household has grown children who once liked to draw or color, the unused paper might be the perfect project. For colors that are hard to find, applying a coat of acrylic paint to the paper is a lot more economical than buying beads from a crafting store.

Another moneymaking idea would be to publish an idea book. This is recommended for crafters who can give directives in a clear manner and take good photos. Since many novices want to know the most practical way to start making their own item for the home or to give as gifts, this target audience could make the book a strong seller.

Another project for long or thin beads is to cover up old boxes. It does not matter the shape or size but it is important to use a primer that is a similar color of the beads to be used first. Decorative boxes can be used for small plants, filled with treats and given as a gift, or functional storage.

And many things, like string elastic, are easy to find at most stores and do not cost a lot of money. Insert a few beads to make kitchen or dining table holder, fun bracelets, or something for a pet. If a person knows how to create a knot, they can knock out several small projects in less than an hour.
