They do still sell them from a little booth in World Showcase but don't remember exactly where. Also have earrings, necklaces etc as well.

The Outpost. Between China and Germany.
From AllEars:
The latest vendor to set up shop in the village takes up residence in Bead Outpost. This entrepreneur arranges for old Disney guide books and other out-of-day Disney paper products to be sent to his family in Uganda. Here, the paper is hand rolled into beautifully colored beads which have been strung into necklaces and bracelets. The finished product is extremely durable and water resistant and makes a wonderful gift for yourself or a friend. You can actually wear a bit of recycled Walt Disney World with these pieces of jewelry.

Steve posted some back when it first opened here -> http://www.wdwmagic.com/shopping/be...-kiosk-featuring-recycled-park-guide-maps.htm
They are made by this group -> http://www.beadforlife.org/shop/beaded-jewelry.html If you look really closely you might be able to pick up on recognizable items on the beads, but it's mostly the colors.

They all look different and no 2 items are alike. I don't have any pics of mine on hand sorry.

The bracelets were cool. We bought some and we made some of our own from old maps and guides. We almost always stop at the Florida Welcome Center right over the border and pick up some brochures as something to read for the final stretch to wdw. The DW and kids have made a bunch of their own over the years.
*edit* Another cool thing we discovered a few years ago were some small charms and tokens shaped like The Mouse made from old rails from the Walt Disney Rail Road. One side was stamped with that info. I believe we got them from Mouse Gears but we saw them in the other parks too.

It is a permanent cart on the far side of the outpost closest to America Pavilion I think. They have many shades of colors.

Full disclosure: My artistic level in regards to crafts is how neatly I can add ketchup to my food. Other than that, my DW is the true craft person around here

They also sell these outside RNR. Why, I'm not completely sure.
