Faux ABC beads

ABC beads look great on children's artwork and baby scrapbooks. Now you can make faux beads too. Simply print out your word in a large straight font, with several spaces between each letter. Next, use a hole punch to punch out each individual letter. Then, peel one side of a piece of wax paper using a glue dot. Stick your circle with the letter on it to the top of this waxed dot.

Once set, simply string the beads together with thread, wire, or embroidery cotton.
