Cantaloupe Seeds

Photobucket

This short necklace was made with cantaloupe seeds and stone beads. Just in case you were wondering what you could do with those beautiful cantaloupe seeds after you've saved them from the bin and carefully washed and dried them? - make a necklace! They are very easy to pierce and string with a needle and although the cantaloupe seeds appear to be sharp, they do not cause irritation when in contact with the skin.
