Thrifty Day spends just ten minutes showing how to make a basic set of dangles that hang from a bookmark that you just insert anywhere in your journal! It has four lengths of heavy string with beads and tiny knickknacks tied all the way down. The knots in between can be as close or far as you want. This particular video is for Christmas, but this can be done for any theme or time of year. See it here.
Hectangnooga1 makes simple paper clip beads by wrapping construction paper around paper clips. She uses dollar story glittery nail polish to finish them up! That's them, above. Find the tutorial (only 2:35 long!!!) here.
Crafted by Christy wraps paper around paper clips to make dangly beads. She paints over them with a glossy finish and they look great! Here's her video.
The Creative Cove hides a paper clip (with its end sticking out) with paper/cluster, then attaches a dangle to the protruding clip. Clips onto the edge of any journal. Video's here.
2nd Chance Creations by Christa made a video entitled From Expired Plastic Cards & Bread Clips to Make Charms. She cuts up expired charge cards (& hotel keys!) with old scissors, files the edges, uses alcohol inks to decorate, perhaps covers with some sort of paper ephemera, then finishes with clear nail polish and a small grommet. A fun afternoon activity, and a great handmade charm. Watch how, here.
