This morning, I found a bag of these in the backyard:
These are actually handmade by my mum in the 1970s to be assembled into household decorative items. She found them today in her closet and was going to throw them away! No way, will I let that happen, these are so pretty! I quickly took 2 pieces and made them into necklaces:

omg those are so pretty- esp as necklaces! you should try putting them on shirts or on the bottom of some flowy skirts for spring!
I was thinking of incorporating them as part of chain belts too! :D
Thanks for your suggestions! :D
Oh those are soo pretty! My faovurites is the pink one - I bet these would look great as bracelets.
Wow you're mum has got a real talent! :)

To "A Dreamer": will not be stitching them onto clothes, although may make one into a brooch too :)
