Instructions:
Start out by stacking together several puzzle pieces together, gluing them as you go. You can use as many or as few puzzle pieces as you like, depending on how thick you want your bead to be. You do not have to worry about trying to line up any edges. Make as many stacks as you want beads. Let the glue dry.

Create all sorts of jewelry using using these beads. Be creative!
