crafting is my crack

[blackandhotpink.livejournal.com]

my mom went to mardi gras and came home with 4 trash bags full of beads. i went through them and picked out my favorites, but now i'm not sure what to do with them. i can't take them apart and string them into a new necklace because they are the kind that are attached to the string.



any ideas?



ps. edit: do to a very high volume of requests, and my mother getting skiddish to all of them...mardi gras beads are available if you don't mind paying postage.
