''Seedpot Jewelry''
Collect seedpod and hollow
stalks from the garden in the
summer and stand them up in
jar to dry in a warm airy spot.
You will need a large darming
needle to make a hole through the
seedpods once they have dried.
The beads in the necklaces are
made from cut lengths of dried
stalks. Thread them using the
darming needle and decorate
them with paint. Gold and brown
paint have been used on those
beads to accentuate the natural
look. Beads painted in bright
colours and decorated with
glitter would make an attractive
necklace.
