What to do with them all?

My jewelry making style has changed a lot since I first started. In fact I am into my third big transition. I have a mountain of beads that I don't or won't use, so I have been wondering just what I can do with them? I have given a bag full away to a crafty niece already, but still have a lot left. So the idea of putting together jewelry kits was born. These kits are geared to kids. I have designed packaging, I am still developing my packaging as new ideas are born. Next was writting out the instructions for 3 different bracelet styles . Then getting the beads, findings and stringing together into packages. I also intend on making some necklace and bracelet kits. If I find that the kits sell I will branch out into more styles, as well as more difficult levels of kits.
This is the inside of one kit: Instructions, beads, elastic string thread and the top hanging label.

This is the back view of the kit. I have not got the front of my package label ready to unveil just yet! It needs work.

Until next time
Rock On!

This is a good idea! Have you thought about b-day kits? Selling them in bundles all ready for a party.
I can understand what you say about transitions. I can't even count how many I'm on and all the baggage that goes with them.
Thank you rockcreekcreations, that is certainly something to consider. I haven't really got that far yet!
Such a great idea. Your packaging looks very pro. Best of luck with this wonderful idea.
they look great so far, nice idea!
What a cool idea -- make your "trash" into someone else's treasure.
Great idea! Very unique and inventive-hope it goes well for you!
Sounds like a wonderful idea - good luck with it!
I think making kits, is a great idea. They should probably be a good seller, as people like me who dont like to look for all the necessary parts, would want to buy them.
It's a great idea and I hope you do really well with them!

That is a good idea! What a way to destash and make some money as well!
It's amazing how many beads you've got...and the good idea you have!
Thank you for your comment on our Designs Blog, Jean. Great you like my work :-) Have a great weekend!
that's a great idea. i hope it works out for you. love the packaging ;)
have a great week ahead.
Cool idea. I think it might help if you included a picture in your packaging of what one of the completed bracelets would look like.
Thank you to everyone for your encouragement of my little project that I have in the works. Preston, I will have a picture on the front of the package as well as samples of the bracelets made up.
