Bee-Dazzled Jewelry Tip


 Bee-Dazzled by Bettina Jewelry Tip
Before the invention of straws people used natural rye grass straws. Straws were patented on January the 3rd, 1888 by Marvin Stone.

Today, there are so many straws to choose from the colors are bright and the sizes are endless.  My use for straws.  Most of us have many different size chains and they always seem to get tangled and twisted in your jewelry box.  Try this.   Get a package of inexpensive plastic straws, string your chains through it clasp together. Lye it flat in your draw or jewelry box.  If you have a shorter chain like a bracelet simply cut the straw, for a longer chain you can tape two together.
