Description

This bracelet in brilliant shades of pink is made from seed beads and paper beads, hand-strung by the Haitians in The Apparent Project's beading program. The paper beads are coated with an acrylic, clear substance that makes them water-resistant. This bracelet measures 9" and will fit adult wrists, medium to large.
This beautiful piece of jewelry was made by Rodney, who is one of the kids in The Apparent Project’s feeding program who have become experts at making paper bead necklaces.  Rodney is an amazingly diligent and hard worker. He is the oldest in a family with seven kids and he lives in abject poverty, rarely being able to count on more than two or three meals per week.
