Cheap Party Beads

Party Beads are great for crafts!

Decorative beads are great for Mardi Gras, bachelorette parties, and all sorts of other theme parties. But beads are also easy to use for crafts!

A fun simple decoration you can use colorful beads for is simply take a few different colored bead necklaces or all the same and put them in a glass jar, a glass vase, fishbowl or empty terrarium for a sparkling decoration accent.

How To: Use party beads to make a fun chandelier!

You'll need a box wire wreath, hot glue gun, craft wire and all your beads! First, start with the inner two wires of the wreath. Place one end of the bead necklace on top of the two wires and glue it in place. Continue this way around the first two smallest inside wires of the wreath, alternating colors.

Once this has dried move to the outer two bigger wires of the wreath. Now you will simply hang a bead necklace over the wires so it’s hanging evenly over in the front and back, then attaching with hot glue. Do this all the way around the bigger outer edge. If the strands aren't completely even, don't worry, it creates an interesting variation in edge and play of light. Once the beads are attached attach craft wire to your metal wire wreath for hanging.
