Please note: I am now selling all of my paper bead making tools and other items from this web site using Paypal payments.

I have removed all of my paper bead making tools from Amazon. My Kindle crochet pattern books and paper template paperback books continue to be available on Amazon, as they are printed and fulfilled directly by Amazon. A limited number of paper bead making tools remain available on Etsy but I am not linking to those tools from this site.

Random Quick Tip!

Keep All Beads From Rolling Away
If you have a fleece bead cloth, use that to keep your beads from rolling away but if you don't have one, you can use a terry wash cloth, a piece of velour or velvet fabric or some other piece of fabric that has a fuzzy knap to it for the same purpose.
