Update...

So, there were a few things I didn't take into consideration when starting this project.  It is just a whole lot harder because I am doing it alone and having to cut pieces of paper using scissors is just an inconvenience.

In Bolivia, we spent about the first week outlining, cutting and rolling paper to make the beads.  Which after a while kind of becomes monotonous but still it was fun because while we were making beads, we would talk and get to know each other a little better.  We also had one of those nifty and extremely convenient paper cutters.

But, the only company I have are my 2 nieces whom I love but they can't really help me.  And I am stuck using scissors to cut every dotted line.  I also thought that I had a ruler in my scrapbooking supplies but I have checked once, twice, three times even and haven't found a ruler anywhere in my room.  I kind of destroyed my room in the process.  It looks like a tornado came through my room.

Please, don't assume that I am complaining because I am still enjoying myself and still plan on making at least a few necklaces.  If business flops, at least I got to make a few fun necklaces but if I am able to sell enough, I plan on using the first few bucks on buying some of the supplies I need to get this thing moving a little more quickly,

I am getting really excited just thinking about the final product and how business will turn out.  But for now, I am making beads!  Once I have a good amount to make at least a couple necklaces, I will.  And I will keep y'all updated!
