Hello, Happy Mango Beads! Several weeks ago I saw a FB post from this bead company promoting a jewelry design competition for turning "Trash to Treasures". One of the categories, "No Earlybirds!, called for repurposing and reusing elements found at flea markets and garage sales. I remembered that I once had a strange souvenir from a trip to New Mexico...an old animal jawbone. Someone had drilled holes in the bone, and tied dangling metal bell forms hanging from beaded leather strips into each one. I had long ago disposed of the bone, but had the dangling, beaded bells stashed in a box in my home studio. I took them apart, added other found items from some broken jewelry and abandoned projects, and here is the result!
 An easy to use clasp adds the finishing touch!  Final entry photo!  Simply Southwest...wish me luck! Comments are closed.
