You could send them to me - JOKE! I do beading & stuff, really enjoy it too. I belong to a group here called "Freecycle" and if you have something like that where you are you could possibly find a new home for your stuff.

You can string them for bookmarkers or key chains. It's easy, and very pretty. Have fun.You can even paste them as a mosaic.

Sell them, or give them away to your neices, or family or someone that makes jewelry for a living or hobby.

What other crafts do you make? You can always use them to add detail to sewing, knitting or even paper projects.
