This set of cutting templates will make paper bead strips that are 1/2in at the wide end, 3/8in at the narrow end and from approximately 8.5 to 11 inches long. The templates are meant to be printed either on the back side of your colorful paper or printed on a blank or recycled piece of copy paper and placed on top of the paper you want to cut into strips. Then you cut your paper into strips along the template lines.

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!

Crafters Gift Basket
If you are giving a gift to a crafter, get a fun basket and fill it with all sorts of things that the crafter would use. For example, if she is into plastic canvas, you could fill it with plastic canvas yarn and fun shapes of plastic canvas along with new needles and novelty cords made for stitching on plastic canvas. You could also include a small kit for something quick and fun to do.
