But in researching how others were made as to not do this, most were double drilled which I didn't want to do to the claws. I thought for a long time on how to fix the issue and Not drill through the claws twice. Here's my Second build with many different beads . --------------------‐‐------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I glued in a small wire loop into the back of each claw to allow for the second bead strand NRA and NTA Life Member www.BackroadsRevised@etsy.com

But all are old Glas or brass beads. I have a thing for Whitehearts they aren't the oldest beads but getting harder to collect. Thanks all NRA and NTA Life Member www.BackroadsRevised@etsy.com

I'm kind of sentimentally attached to the old white hearts, but if you ever need any cobalt blue, wound glass beads that are well over a hundred years old let me know.

You will notice one strand of micro white hearts they could well be the oldest beads in the bunch possibly 1700s. Last edited by waggler; 09/16/20 10:25 AM. "My life is better than your vacation"
