What would you call these wooden shapes on a listing? They measure from 2"-3" long and approx 1"-11/2" wide. I bought them thinking they could be used for jewelry, hair ornaments etc, now I am not sure what to call them, or what category to list them in. Any suggestions?

a foto would be easier to use to try to identify your objects

That's a tough one. Craft pieces? Folk Art? Fairly unique items alright.

List them under hobbies/crafts. I guess you could use them for jewelery making too in a necklace etc.

It is hard to tell in a 2 dimension photo, but it looks like some have a dip in the middle. Could they some type of amulet or talisman like a worry stone?

They might be macrame' beads? Giving away my age here. Just call them "craft beads" let them figure out which craft.

Yes Sanmar, some do have a dip in them, I have wondered if someone intended them to be used for button, but they are rather large. Some of the triangula shapes have a small hole in the point that would take a necklace chain.

Amber

I would try Jewellery/Gemstones--Beads--Other.

I would also try JustBeads.com

Call them:

Drilled/Undrilled Finished Wooden Pieces---if you favor a prosaic description.

Or something like:

Wild Looking Wood Pieces for Jewelery

Use Gallery and put all of your suggestions for use in the description.Necklaces, earrings and hair decor. Maybe add a quarter to your pic for size comparison.

Beaders have great imagination! Bead scans are hard to do.

Good luck!

Thanks Cathy, that's a great help, I feel sure that some craft person could put them to good use, they are very pretty wood, not what I would consider "Junk" Mitch3
