Hold for original prompter.

prompt

[zianuray]

traveling beads - a box of glass/ other beads that goes from one crafter to another each week, with similar amounts of beads being taken and placed in.

finding a hand-delivered anonymous package of sketch pencils/charcoals and sketchbooks on your porch the day after you mention wanting to get started back up but no spare cash for supplies

fancy beaded collars for stuffed animals (maybe good for sensory fidget too?)

custom dice sets with cremains in (family game night doesn't have to end!)(glitter optional)

Re: prompt

This inspired the free-verse poem "The Traveling Beads." Crafters pass beads from hand to hand.
