The purchase dates vary. I have too many materials and am having trouble, so I made a set with odds and ends! I've inspected them and selected clean items, but please understand that a non-professional did the inspection. Some may have slight burrs. I've trimmed them and snipped them with scissors. Please use them to make earrings, ear cuffs, or bracelets. Hand-dyed beads from artists are also included, as well as cotton pearls. Small amounts of jump rings, spacers, and metal beads are also included. These are the three bags in the photo. Each one is packed full! Everything included, with shipping, for this priceless price!
