How Paper Beads Are Made-Uganda Project

Hey Nail Gals,
The project is off to a great start with several orders already underway!! Thank you for all who have shared my blog via email and Facebook I really appreciate you taking the time to spread the word :)

Many of you are asking HOW the paper beads are made because they are so unique and beautiful. They are made from recycled magazine and calendar pages. The women chose the right kind of paper in color, weight, and glossiness which may take up to 2.5 hours to travel to Kampala, the capital city of Uganda. Check out this video that shows the process, so amazing!
 
Im thinking about doing a nail art design inspired by the beads :)
