Paper Beads and My Experimentation with Different Sealer Products

- Paper Beads and the several different types of glaze, sealers, varnishes, etc., I've tried. In this video I talk about which ones I like, which one is not such a good idea, and a new find.
UPDATE 01/01/2018: I'll be creating a follow-up video in 2018, since I've discovered a couple of products not mentioned here in this video. Subscribe and stay tuned...
Here are the two other TH-cam Channels I mention in the video:

/ beyondbracelets
Good morning and thank you for this video my first one today. Although short, you gave us a lot of information.
I especially like that you promoted another person’s channel and you promoted that person much more than you did yourself. Of course, that earned you another subscriber.
Have a great day you displaced Yankee from this New Yorker ! ♥️
I also use PC-Petrifier and the dipping method. I discovered it on the Beyond Bracelets channel. I also use Fast Finish Decoupage for my top coats. I do have a glazing paper beads video on my channel as well which might help. I love using PC-Petrifier and have no trouble with it. Some people might be sensitive to it with regards of the smell but for me it's no problem.
I've used the Minwax hardener and I give it a light coat of glossy Mod Podge first then I string them with size 6 seed beads between my paper beads. The hardener soaks in through the interior of the paper bead and I have no trouble getting them apart. Hope this helps. 😀
Thank you. That sounds brilliant!
thank you my friend, Merry Christmas
Truly always looking for the next great project
I tried PC Petrifier on my paper beads and it dulled the color quite a bit. I currently use Triple Thick brush-on, but would love to find something else that gave me similar results with a more durable water-resistant finish.
Hi Beth! I, too, saw Beyond Bracelets' video. I was finally able to find the PC Wood Hardener on eBay, and for a fairly good price. I haven't tried it out yet, but I'm eager to! Just wanted to mention where'd found it.
I did end up trying the brand of wood hardener I show in the video, and the results were disastrous. I ruined a strand of beads using the dipping method. I didn't leave them in for very long, yet the color ran, and they stuck together in a way that they would not pop apart easily as they do in "Beyond Bracelets" videos with the PC Petrifyer. It is probable that the two formulas are different enough where one works better than the other. I recommend trying it out on a strand of test beads first. If you have better luck with the PC Petrifyer please let me know
I would love to learn how you made the house numbers! They're so pretty!! Please do a tutorial ❤️😀
heidi brill I have a blog post showing the process here: elizabethkathleenking.wordpress.com/2014/06/24/hand-painted-decorative-house-numbers-the-process/
I really like the house numbers!
Just found your video the other day. I too am trying to find the PC Petrifier locally. I was wondering how the Minwax Wood Hardener worked. Thanks
Woow amazing job keep it up 👍
Sticky Fingers yellow BBQ sauce. Have you tried fried fish , cheese grits, side on cornbread and sweet tea for dinner? Yummy!
Thanks so much 🙏🏽
I need to do an updated version of this video. There are so many more product choices now.
@@BeadyEyedBeth Beth I immediately bought wood hardener as have seen used before.. I’ll keep an eye on you 😌
Do you know if the wood hardener will yellow?
I will check out outdoor formula since I don’t care about brush strokes showing
THANKS!!!
I'm having a problem with my beads sticking together in humid weather. I typically glaze with a couple of coats of slightly watered-down glossy modge podge. Have you experienced this at all? I want to sell my jewelry so I am looking to solve this problem for an over-all better product.
Thanks!
Lauren Mullis Yes! Mod Podge does get sticky in high humidity. All is not lost though, simply put at least two coats of either diamond glaze or water-based polyurethane glossy over each bead, on top of the mod podge, and that will greatly reduce the stickiness.
@@BeadyEyedBeth Great thanks!!
What is the sealer you would suggest the most.
Hi TFS. Just Post To Ask You; Would You Recommend the Yellow Bottle(Sticker One) Mod Podge (Matte Mate, Matte Sealer On Paper Finish Paper Beads & Also a Video Tutorial/Website Link On How To Coat The beads In that type of Mod Podge Mentioned Above. I look forward to your reply asap. Tafs.
Have you tried mod podge dimensional? It's suppose to be very good for jewelry. It doesn't come in the traditional jar bottle. It's 4oz and comes in a hanging package. You might want to try. 😁
Becky A Hi. Yes I have tried it! I have several bottles of it. However, it does take a lot longer to dry than I’m willing to wait. It’s a thick product, and when I tried to hurry the drying process with a hairdryer or fan it dries and shrinks unevenly creating cracks in the surface. It’s definitely a product that you have to have patience with and allow it to dry slowly. I do love it for other types of projects that I’m willing to be more patient with, just not paper beads.
Hi....did you try this wood hardener already? Cause i just got one from HD they didn't have the pc one....so i will love to know if this one worked for you....Thanx in advance! Know i see a paper and i imagine how the beads could look like! 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
tear drops paper beads tutorial
Clear embossing powder works wonderfully!
I agree it coats the outside nicely, but leaves the inside bead core unprotected. It also yellows over time. Not an option for me, but may be for others. Thanks for sharing.
Hola, sabes dónde puedo comprar ese material acá en chile? Gracias
Thank You So Much For The Video.. I make Paper Quilling Earrings. Could you suggest me, will Modpodge - Dishwasher-Safe will be the best to use as a waterproofer?? My works are not always thicker sometimes the finished item will have thin strips, Will be this be helpful?? Please suggest.
I’m thinking the dishwasher safe, if used in several coats or dippings, would provide a very good degree of water resistance. You may also want to experiment with PC Petrifier as a base coat. There is a watercolor artist and teacher who makes earrings out of rice paper and watercolor paper, and he uses a couple of coats of water-based polycrylic, Letting it absorb into the paper to both strengthen and stiffen it and give it water resistance. I’ll find the link to his video and put it in another comment below. Thanks for watching!
See above comment. Here is his video. Skip ahead to 25:15 if you just want to see the part where he vanishes:

Where I get Diamond Glaze which brand?
Wonderful Bead Video. Do you have a Etsy or Facebook page.
She uses, PC wood petrifier and J. W. ETC Polyurethane Varnish gloss
Unfortunately jd went out of business or no longer sells it:(
Gracias, me podrías decir donde comprarlo???
which mod podge works best for beads?
GIjoeWEARSdiapers ! Hard coat, which is the same formula as the glossy furniture mod podge formula, or so I’m told. A good second alternative is the dishwasher formula. However, neither one of those is as shiny as the Polycrylic is when applied in several layers. However, since some time has passed since I made this video, and I’ve made a lot more beads, I’d like to update my preference from Diamond Glaze to Polycrylic, water-based formula. You can thin it with water so it really soaks into the bead for the first coat or two, then do a couple of full-strength coats. I still prefer glazing one bead at a time over the messy, product-wasting dip method. Polycrylic makes the beads nice and hard and shiny. I use Polycrylic exclusively now. I don’t even use the wood hardener anymore, not even PC Petrifier, which I strongly suspect is what Janice Mae is decanting into jars with her brand name on them, and re-selling as her base-coat product - there is nothing wrong with that, especially if you have a hard time finding the PC Petrifier where you live. However, I now see the wood-hardener as an unnecessary extra step, both expensive and time-consuming. It turns the paper into a plastic-like product. If I wanted plastic beads I’d make plastic beads, and that’s all it does. If you use the watered-down polyacrylic for several coats inside and out, then a coat or two of it full-strength you will get a nice, hard, shiny and water-resistant bead. Water-resistant is not the same as water-proof, but unless you’re going swimming while wearing the beads, or in the shower or steam room the beads should last a good long time. If you’re prone to being hard on your jewelry, the wood-hardner will give it some extra strength against crushing.
I bought Mod Pog, Triple Thick and the PC Purifer do I need to use all three products . what one do I start with first. I did a few beads using the mod pog is my next step the PC stuff
MARY LYNN GRANADO The PC Petrifier would be used first, several coats or dippings, allowing to dry completely between coats, then either the Mod Podge (assuming you got the dishwasher safe formula I mentioned in the video) OR the triple thick, as they are both glazes. Experiment with the glazes to see which you like best.
Thank You.
is the polycrylic safe to wear after drying
Everything I have read online states that polycrylic is non-toxic once it's cured. I have worn paper bead bracelets and clay pendants sealed with polycrylic right next to my skin with no issues whatsoever. I have somewhat sensitive skin.
Try brush on, UV resin
I actually did try it, with disastrous results. I think the problem was I did not seal the bead with a sealer first, and when I brushed the UV resin onto the bare paper it created dark, almost oily looking spots. I recall reading somewhere years ago that using a silicone-based glue first as a sealer would work. Apparently, silicone-based is the only kind of sealer that is chemically compatible with UV resin over time. If you have experience with this please let me know what works for you. Thank you!

Can you mail me some boiled peanuts & yellow BBQ sauce? lol
+champagne5552000 Timbo's boiled peanuts in West Ashely are the best I've ever had. I've definitely developed a taste for them since moving south in 2004. I've yet to try yellow BBQ sauce. Any recommendations?
