Mary S - Sweet Chick says:Thank you Lynn!
Aren’t they gorgeous little things?!
How are you today? Hugs back at you!
I find it difficult to use these tiny size 11 seed beads. At this point, all I use them for is stringing. Any unique ways of using them in a design, anyone?

NY Bella says:Mary, you’ve got a nice arrangement of seed beads in this pick! I go nuts when I use them – they usually end up on the floor…Might need to get a magnifying glass! LOL

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Mary, I’m having a great day! Hope you are, too! It’s been mostly gray here lately, but the sun peeked out for a bit this afternoon!
I’ve mostly used seed beads in the 6 and 8 sizes, though I did use some teensy ones strung on wire to dangle for earrings. They were cute.
