Is the jewelry really made of Newspaper? Yes. We also use Sweetener Packets, Loser
Lottery Tickets, Dollar Bills and Expired Coupons.
Why Newspaper? The Designer, Holly Anne Mitchell began exploring recyclable paper
materials while studying at The University of Michigan in 1990. She had a project in a
Metalsmithing class to create a piece of jewelry consisting of only non-traditional materials (no
metal, precious stones, etc.). She chose newspaper comic strips because of the rich color
patterns. She was hooked! Her designs have evolved over the years to include Sweetener
Packets, Expired Coupons and Loser Lottery Tickets.
How is it made? The Paper is cut into strips and hand-formed into uniform-sized beads.
The Paper Beads are stitched together with (in many cases) Metal, Glass, or Swarovski Crystal
Beads into the form of Bracelets, Brooches, Earrings, and Cufflinks.
Are The Paper Beads Protected From Moisture? There is a moisture-resistant sealant
on the beads to protect from moisture (such as rain and moisture of skin) and protects the
paper from tearing. We remind customers to exercise care: The beads are moisture-resistant,
not water-proof. So the jewelry is protected from light moisture such as rain and skin
moisture, but cannot be worn while swimming, doing the dishes or in the shower!
Do you sell wholesale? Yes. The Minimum Wholesale Order is 15 pieces. You may place
your order online or by calling 317-209-6158. Click here for more information
Do You Do Custom Orders? Yes. Many customers request jewelry pieces made using
wedding invitations, newspaper articles, or specific comic strips. There is a 20% surcharge for
custom orders. Please call 317-209-6158 for more information.
How long after I place my order will it be shipped? Orders are usually shipped within
1-7 business days from the date of the order. Estimated shipping dates are shown in the item
description on each web page. For faster service, please call 317-209-6158. Rush order
charges may apply.
