Bead Soup for School Kids

Tomorrow I'm sending Luke to school with this stash... to donate to his new Metal Working class - beads only kids could love, I think - I hope they find some ways to work these into their metal and jewelry projects!



Look at these things. How small some of them are, I almost don't remember making those... some of them are probably 6 or 7 years old... nothing like going through the reject box to see how far you've come.

  6. I bet the kids are going to want to add their beads to their "treasures" instead of add them to their metal projects- LOL Pam, I am going to start mentoring disabled women, and I am going to be teaching them jewelry making as an incentive to help boost their sense of accomplishment so if you ever want to part with anymore of your rejects we cold sure use some! you can just FB me and let me know- Elizabeth Owens Dwy- Thanks! ;-D

  7. Mallory, that's because you are a kid at heart ;)
    Same for you Palimpa Lim :)

    Elizabeth, that's a great thing you are doing. When I have more, I'll keep you in mind, I pretty much cleared out my reject bin for now though.

  9. Hi Pam, Followed you over from owoh, but I'm so lame I couldn't find the right post. So I hope you find this. Love your beads. Let me know if you are interested in trading. I would be over the moon with your rejects. Thanks for coming by my blog, and for your kind words. I'm not looking to comment on everyone's blog, but would like to connect with a few new friends. Thanks, Cindy
