Fancy clasps or multiple clasps available as well.) Inches must be consecutive, though you can ask for focal beads if you like. There are almost 200" left. Plenty of room! However, the cat bead section has already been purchased. I have lots of other cool focal beads on it, though. WAIT! I found more blue cat beads, thanks to a nice person. So if you need a cat, you can have one. SOLD: seven inches with a clasp; 22 inches with a clasp; 32 inches with clasp; one 8 inch bracelet and one with length to be determined; $100 worth with a clasp; still lots left!
