"So cute owls!"
These little owls are even cuter than the picture. They arrived faster than I expected and made it onto the tree in time. Very well made. Now Im sorry I didnt order two sets.

"Enchanting"
I adore my bracelet! But even more knowing the women were making the beads themselves with incredibly tiny slivers of colorful magazine rolled very tightly. Im amazed at how they determine where on a page to cut the paper so the intended color shows-and without any text showing up! It warms my heart. Thank you, ladies. Deb from Utah, USA

"A beautiful piece of artwork"
This bracelet is well crafted from resources already available which is very important to me. It came beautifully packaged and would have made a lovely gift. I continue to purchase items from Novica as I find that their items are hand made, durable, and of good quality. I highly recommend this product.
