So, after a bit of help from Husband, (I wasn't exactly sure how to drill a hole in the bottom of the bead so it would be even), I came up with some Chicken Knittin' needles. There are also 2 egg beads, that I am thinking I might dye brown. Then again, I might not.
But, it does answer that great philosophical question. In this case, the chicken came before the egg!
(And are you amazed? Yes, Virginia, I was able to load a picture! Will miracles never cease?)
