Unfortunately my budget would never allow for this--even the lower priced ones at Happy Mango since they are very small beads with a heft per/bead price.<br /><br />I will just have to be satisfied with drooling over photos such as this. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing! If you buy some, please show us what you make with them. <br /><br />AliceAlicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07545020113679133121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157095593736922566.post-6669943100800081182009-07-30T22:43:19.130-04:002009-07-30T22:43:19.130-04:00I love these beads, too!
