Beads

These are just some of the fancy glass beads I got this weekend from a yard sale.

These were covered in a wax like substance. I rubbed each of them on a towel to remove the wax. I'm guessing its a polishing compound.

These still have a waxy coating on them. But not a thick as the others

These are the metal beads that were in the mix.

These are the beads that I plan on making mini bottles out of. The beads in the center section are from the swap I did with Carolyn at http://fabshabbyroses.blogspot.com/

Those are great! I would use them to make silverware and teapot windchimes (just made a couple and beads were the hardest thing to come up with) I'll be posting about them soon!
Thanks for signing up as a follower on my blog! I'm off to read some more of yours!
