Try your hand at colourful necklaces by encasing beads in a bamboo or sushi mat and rolling into a crescent shape, or dipping into dye resist medium for random patterns. Craft one-of-a-kind beads using sculptural papermaking and papier-mache. For unusual effects, paint tiny, spherical plaster beads in bright hues, or decorate wooden beads with Asian rice papers. Use polymer clay to imitate eye-catching stones. For exotic appeal, incise Mayan motifs into luminious pieces. Shimmering brass, copper and silver are ideal for metal beadmaking.
