Today’s catch: vintage mother of pearl shell beads, a whole long necklace of them, 70 to be exact. Found this in Red Bench, an antique mall in Silverton. That place gave me some nice shell and glass beads a few years ago too. I love the unpredictability of antiques and surprises that happen when I don’t expect them.

Oh, the things I am going to make with these beauties! I mean, when I am done with the current load, especially the custom orders, but it will happen 🙂
