Details

Chunky beads in bright colors have a secret — they are crafted from recycled magazines and newspapers. Mindful of the environment, Akwele Suma creates an original bracelet that stretches to slip over the wrist. "A little love makes the world a better place," the Ghanaian artist says.

The artist uses the paper at hand so paper colors will vary, making each design a unique example of handcrafted art. These beads receive a protective coat of clear nail polish.
