Wooden bead jewellry

I found these gorgeous decorated / painted wooden beads at one of the dollar shops and knew I had to make a necklace with them.  I wasn't sure what style I wanted to make it- I knew a necklace full of beads would be too much.  I googled some ideas and decided to keep it simple - some beads of different sizes and patterns threaded on round leather cord. 

 
After I made the necklace I decided to make a matching bracelet.  I kept this design simple too - just threaded the beads onto elestic jewellry cord.
 
 
I love how the necklace and bracelet turned out and am glad that I have enough supplies leftover to make a few more sets as gifts :)
