qltldy10 says:Ali, I am trying to use the jack o’lantern leaves on my necklace, and having a tough time. You used which gauge of beading wire? I have smaller gauge jump rings on the way, but am worried they won’t work, either- suggestions? I’m trying to put them on a chain necklace.

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Ali, this is such a fun, cute, and clever bracelet! What a great idea!
I have some of the tektite freeform drops and just love them! I also have used some of the other tektite shapes in my designs and think they work great!
