A baby tooth. Hmm. an acorn. I'm striking out here...


A hat, a brooch, a pterodactyl?

A condom. Even the extra large ones are the same shape and size when still
in the foil packet.

That's a great idea! With a ruler.

What about including a picture of 2mm - 8mm in an additional picture? (8mm)
is the largest size I carry. People could get an idea of what size that is.

A beaded ruler!


That would rock!


I've been giving it some thought, there are some beads that are sized
evenly
enough to make it worth a try.

See, more things I never knew! Well, I guess because I never asked.

Has anyone else noticed that all the *really* good toys seem to come
from Denmark?

You may have a huge market for them, if you do them...

I've been racking my brain to think of something that's fairly universal and
small enough to be meaningful to someone who is buying beads but isn't
exactly conversant with sizes or can't jump from metric to imperial (like
me!!! I'm hopeless about that).

A ruler is really the only constant I can think of but it does have to look
good.

I thought about beads, like lentils, but anything that grows comes in
too many sizes, LOL!

OK, now I need a hat, a brooch, and a pterodactyl to put in my pics...
