Just so you know… there will be lots of mayhematical calculations for this project 😁.
I made these 1cm round paper beads from a cereal box using many steps. This is not a one size fits all because cereal boxes have different weights. You will have to do a bit of calculations using the following steps.
Step 1:
Cut 1 cm triangle strips from your cereal box . Let the length of the strip be the length of your cereal box. Mine was 27.5 cm long.
Step 2:
Roll the strip and try to find the point at which the diameter of the rolled strip is also 1 cm. ( mine was at the 19,5 mark) This gave me a strip 1cm at the base/ 3mm at the tip and 19.5cm long. Let’s call this strip A
Step 3:
The length of strip A being 19,5cm, mark a point along the length of strip A about 2/3 it’s length away from the base of the strip.
Let me explain. The length of my strip was 19,5 cm. 2/3 of 19.5 is 13. After several attempts , I realized 12 cm away from the base of the strip was perfect for my paper. So you can use anywhere around 2/3 the length.
Let’s call this point B
Step 4:
Taper down your paper strip from point B to the tip of your paper strip. ( see video to better understand)
Now you have your strip and you are ready to roll.
Another option is to use two strips.
The first strip from cereal box measuring 1cm at the base and 1/2 cm at the tip and 12 cm long. ( file or scrape off the tip of this strip before you roll so that it sort of matches the thickness of the second strip)
The second from light magazine paper 1/2 cm base tapering down to nothing and measuring about 27 cm in length.
