I think they are for the expandable bangles, that's what i'd use them for, or if you make a leather strap bracelet, great idea using them for earrings Theresa.
Thank you enigma,
I've just finished the items i was making, they are for my family, so i went with using Amazonite cabochon over the hair, can't see the hair which i don't mind as i know it's...
Thanks Lydia, they look great, and a really good choice as it adds more to the meaning of the piece.

Beautiful, well deserved win Jill :-)
Hi Les, i got the opals, rubies. Sapphires and emeralds in the small bags, it is fiddly to cabochon set the opals but is do-able, this is one of them on the leaf, the lady had a last minute request...
