I keep going mad on ebay and buying them! They're just so pretty and shiny. Thing is, I'm not sure what I'll do with the 500+ I've bought. Perhaps some jewellery and plan to do wine glass charms. Any idea what to do with the rest? I'll probably end up selling them on ebay lol!

Sorry Suz, you have definitely got me there. I know some of the others will come up with something.....crystal poo shaped pine cones perhaps . I am still chuckling about that.

I love those & want to buy some for my jewellery making. So far I have resisted as they are rather expensive. You have 500+

I would love to do a bracelet full of them - I love sparkly things

lol yes... ebay has loads of collections of 200 4mm beads. I bid when they're really really cheap - and have got bargains. But as my dad keeps telling me, they're only bargains when you need them!...

They're arriving next week. Not sure what jewellery I'll do - I have limited knowledge of jewellery making so have got a book out of the library. Just need to buy some findings and things now.
