Steps (12 steps, 60 minutes)
-

-
2
draw a grid on a page you like that has 1 inch square cubes
-
3
Cut out a bunch of cubes.

4
Have the side that you don't want to show face up, start rolling it with the stick. Start with a corner
-
5
Leave a bit of room and put on a drop of glue then roll it completely, but not to tight or else it won't come of. If the glue your using doesn't work then use a glue gun.

6
slip it of the stick, and you got your first bead.

7
Make a lot of them, and if you later find out that you don't have enough just make more.

Take your string (or yarn) and measure how long you want it to be around your neck, and cut it. I'm going to loop it around two times. You could also just make a bracelet.

tightly wrap a piece of tape around an end of the string.
-
10
String a bead on and bring to the end, but leave a little room then tie the string around it
-

Bead the rest of the string but leave a little room.
-
12
tie the ends together and wear it.
