Very cool idea! Love love love this idea! You rock Gina!

[@BeyondBellieBeads]

Thanks Jennie! Thanks for all your support!

Gina, I just love this process of using the freezer paper on the back of the napkin rather than gluing paper to the back. I just recently made paper beads from an Easter napkin by gluing the paper to it. Sent a photo to the Facebook group of paper beaders. We had a conversation through that. Will definitely try this method next time. What I really love is your enthusiasm and excitement. It is very contagious. It makes me smile each time when I view your very, informative tutorials.

Got to try this have seen some cool napkins that would make beautiful beads

[@shellywebb1789]

Love it so cool and colors are great❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@BeyondBellieBeads]

Thanks Shelly!

Using cling wrap is sooo much easier & faster.

Another thing I do is to take favourite napkins( that I’m running out of) to a copy shop and have them print the napkin design onto different weight paper.

Hi im just starting with paper beadswaiting on supplies- how would I know which size paper to use with which size roller for different beads ? Thanks love your channel

[@BeyondBellieBeads]

Hi janette! So happy your found my channel and Paperbeading! First, I invite you to my paper bead group on FB, here you learn so many things from rolling and paper! facebook.com/groups/236164590836471 I do Live's on there and answer all questions. I use JPFUN rollers and their the best. I had so many rollers and i love Julies rollers. here is her link: www.jpfun.com/ also, if you like to try out my paper strips i sell them at www.belliebeads.com/ sometimes just getting the rolling down is work and I make it easy to just roll paper instead of having to cut them. all my paper strips are precisely cut. i have to say, check out my other videos on Paper weight, it does matter the weight of the paper. DM if you have any questions. please do not hesitate, I'm here to help! Enjoy rolling!

Can you also use baking paper ? Thts non greasy its similar to parchment paper

[@BeyondBellieBeads]

I'm unsure what it is lined with? You need that waxy side for it to adhere.

[@rebekahwalters4952]

I bet this could easily be done with your heat press. I want to try this

[@BeyondBellieBeads]

Thats a good idea! Be careful with the temperature being too hot. Let me know how you did. I would love to hear you feedback. Thank you!

[@rebekahwalters4952]

@@BeyondBellieBeads soon as my daughter brings back the heat press I will try this.

[@Tastefully2You]

You've got me wondering where I put my stash of pretty napkins! Thanks for sharing. Have you ever tried adhering the napkin to sticker paper or maybe even contact paper? I wonder if that would work. I'm guessing though that this method might be easier to apply/reposition the napkin versus it being more challenging with a stickier surface.

[@BeyondBellieBeads]

Lol....yes I have tried that method but fell for the freezer paper instead. I say..try everything and see what works for you.. Thank you for your support on my channel.

[@belinda474]

I wonder if I could use dry wax paper?

[@BeyondBellieBeads]

yes you can

[@ladyknu-knu9906]

I love all your videos. Could you please made a video on how to make bicone beads. I love them but can never find a good video to tell you what measurements to use and the best paper. Thanks you for being such a good teacher.

[@BeyondBellieBeads]

I'm so happy you enjoy my videos! Of course I can make a video for you on bicone shapes. I places it on my schedule, so look for it this week coming. Thank you for you support of my channel. Many blessings Love and light Gina

[@ladyknu-knu9906]

@@BeyondBellieBeads Thank you so much. I can't wait for the bicone video!

What is freezer paper paper? I am in the uk our names to things differ. Do u remove the crumpled edging of ur napkins or do u trim them off?

[@BeyondBellieBeads]

Yes it would be considered freezer paper but make sure their is a waxy side to it.i remove the backing to the napkins. Crumble edges? Unsure of that what you mean. You will be cutting it once it adheres to the wax paper.

[@2303scorpio]

@@BeyondBellieBeads hi by crumbled edges I miss the outer edging frame of some folded paper napkins have that textured like dotty border does that make sense? I have seen some who decoupage they trim the edges of.

[@BeyondBellieBeads]

@@2303scorpio yes I would trim them
