Handmade Newspaper Yarn

This newspaper yarn is AMAZING!! It's not just black & white; in fact, it's very colorful! I haven't used it yet, but I'm thinking I may make some earrings with it--I have so many ideas rolling around in my head!! It came at a great price, too!!

Unique yarn!

this yarn is beautiful and unique! It's great for tying packages. I even made a few flower brooches using a flower loom.

Thank you :) - Claudia
