jungle bead jewelry
Jungle Beads are individually handcrafted in Uganda from recycled paper materials such as magazines, catalogs and brochures. The beautiful colors are a result of the printing ink on the paper. No other dyes are added. Each bead is first rolled from a thin strip of paper and dipped in several coats of varnish for a water resistant finish. Then they are strung with tiny seed beads on high-strength line for a stunning and lightweight piece of jewelry you will be proud to wear.
