Janice shows you how to decorate a ceramic cross with paper beads.  

Here's materials needed and Instructions:

Unglazed rolled paper beads in varied sizes
Grout with adhesive
Object to be paper beaded - find them from thrift store or Michael's
Amazing Base + Vibrance
A tool like palette knife or any unused knife or spatula
Pair of gloves
Water and rag 

Instruction: lay the grout onto your object and start adhering your beads.  Some spots may need smaller beads, this is a forgiving project you cannot go wrong so don't worry.  The grout sets in about 30 minutes.  After laying down all the beads filling out the spaces, let it set and harden for 30 minutes and clean up some of the excess using the wet rag.

*Tip: wet your finger and smooth and pat the grout when applying your beads.

Glaze with Amazing Base 2X, let it dry 15 minutes in between coats.  Seal and finish with Vibrance also applying twice.  Heave fun with it, you can use glass beads to fill up any spaces.
