METHOD OF MAKING BEADED ARTICLE

A beaded article having a support layer on which a bottom layer and a top layer of sheet material are superimposed. The top layer is heat bonded to the bottom layer and both are heat bonded to the support layer along a circumferentially complete narrow annular zone. In the area circumscribed by the annular zone the top layer is provided with a raised self-supporting bead-like prominence which contains ornamental particles visible to a viewer because the top layer is of transparent material.
