Trading post Open to offers!

I have decided to do things a little different with these next few lots, instead of me staing how many squares are required for each item (each photo is classed as one item), the next items are open to offers, you can also combine items too.. They are all handmade stitch markers, all glass beads or tibetan style charms with sp findings, they are all approx 7mm... Just let me know how many squares you would like to offer and i will let you know if i accept... xxx
