craftgrrl | Jewelry design question (Reply)

So I bought two of these adorable black elephant beads a week ago with the plan to make a pair of dangle earrings out of them. Once I got them home, however, I realized they were drilled tail to trunk, rather than top to bottom, and now I don't know what to do with them! I think they'd look silly hanging from their tails!

If I had more I'd make a bracelet, but I just have the two and the store I bought them at is over an hour and a half away from me. I don't make a lot of jewelry, so I was hoping that some of you wonderful, brilliant craftgrrls could offer me design suggestions or other ideas on how to use these beads.
