Beads and fibers and charms...oh my! Embellishments are things that decorate or adorn, little details that add the finishing touch your project. As I come across fun finds that would make perfect embellishments — like cool beads, fossilized leaves, fabulous fibers, or clay buttons — I'll add them to this page.
