New Design of Worry Beads
We are introducing a new design of worry beads. They are called a 2Pear (combo). The steel element is a stainless steel snake chain but unlike the chain on the 1Pear it is much thicker.

Using Worry Beads – Definition
During last summer we attended several country fairs and every time we would get caught out when someone asked, “Worry beads, what do you do with them?” For those of you who have had worry beads you would probably know what to show someone but as the leading authority on worry beads in this country we were left slightly… Continue Reading
