Fun Facts

Beading is one of the oldest crafts in the world. Early beads were made from natural objects like shells, stones, seeds, and animal teeth.

Lions are often called the “king of the jungle,” while lambs are known for being gentle farm animals. Together, they make a fun pair for animal bead crafts.
