23. I wanted a stand for the beaded eggshell to sit on. You can make or use anything you want, to display them on. (I use to look for all kinds of napkin rings, at yard sales.) However, I couldn't find a single napkin ring in my stash of stuff.
BUT ... I keep all the cardboard rolls from everything. And the ones from Strapping Tape are very strong, so I decided to use one of those. It was too wide, so I cut it in half (see photo below) ... painted several coats of white paint on one half and then coated it with white glue and let it dry, completely.
24. Using the same crystal beads as I used for the snowman and the "snow" ... I beaded the cardboard roll.
