Missladypetal paper bead for jewellery tututorial

I've had many questions about the size of my bead cores and where I got them from.

1. the cores are metal and the dimensions are:
Outer diameter 9mm | inner diameter 5mm | Height 4mm
2. I searched for metal bead cores on ebay and bought a bulk lot from china for a very small amount of money.
Here's a link to a search I just popped into google.

Some other Q & A's
- size and thickness of paper.
I use scrapbook paper of varying thicknesses and lengths. this affects how fat the beads are. thin paper = thin bead.
- what is UTEE?
ultra thick embossing powder. I use Ranger clear UTEE to get that smooth glassy finish
- What glaze do you use?
I use diamond glaze which is a sealer, finisher and adhesive. Very strong but you will still the ridges of the paper on the bead.
- How do you cut your strips?
I cut them with a rotary paper cutter that works the same way as a quiliting rotary cutter and ruler would work. this one I use is designed for papercraft.

Utee stands for ultra thick embossing powder. Ranger makes the clear utee that I use and you can google ranger utee in your country for retailers.
Diamond glaze is a glass like finish and also a strong adhesive. You can google diamond glaze in your country and search for retailers.
