I can never resist a Treasure Mix! I love these special jars from John Bead because they are always filled to the brim with great components. The pricing is phenomenal as well. Last year in Florida I took my niece to a bead store and paid between $2 and $5 for individual wooden pieces just like these.
The Tropical Adventure jar is so pretty. You never know what you will get. This sample shows a zebra, but in my jar I got tigers. I love them all. These wood pendants already come with a gold attachment.
I selected three of my favorite animals. They are pretty as is, but I knew I could make them just a little better….
I used some Quick Grip glue to attach Preciosa Hot Fix Crystals.
I really think these are special now. Since it is Mother’s Day on Sunday, I’ll show you a few ideas this week on how to use them in finished jewelry. These would be fun for mother/daughter or auntie/niece projects and gifts!
