Free: Mystery Bead Box (Ballard loyal heights) A totally random stash of vintage beading stuff from an estate hoard clearout a while back. 1.2 Lbs. About 2.5 - 3.0 cups, by volume. Glass beads, accent beads, tiny beads, blown and folded glass, stone beads, charms, western silver beads, and probably random craft stuff the size of beads that isn't beads. Some truly special randoms but some parts were found under furniture, in garage, loose in cabinet drawers, basement, etc. Expect to rinse/wipe/clean before use. For a patient treasure hunter who can handle a little grit with the "pearls." (Some beads may actually BE pearls. Looks like some are shells, for sure. Sifting through, doesn't seem to include plastic/junk materials.) PICKUPS ARE SCHEDULED. Our location is an urban apartment with high foot & vehicle traffic on a major street so there is no porch pickup or unannounced drop-ins. We do appointment handoffs with good communication, that are mutually agreed and confirmed. Best times (at time of this post): 9:00-9:45am Mon Dec 1st 10:00-10:45am Sat Dec 6th 6:30-7:15pm Thu Dec 11th 10:00-10:45am Sun Dec 13th Pick priority to those who can communicate what time they will come within options given. (No rush, just be excellent.)
