Paper Bead Jewelry Upcycled United States Map Necklace by Tanith

I created this necklace from paper beads that I made from a vintage U.S. Road Atlas. The paper beads are strung onto a silver toned chain. The hook and eye style clasp is silver plated. The paper beads measure about 7/8" long. The necklace measures about 20 1/2" long. The paper beads are coated with varnish for protection.
