[Nfb-krafters-korner] ideas

[Zimmer, Cindy]

The ones we used to use were called propeller beads and we would use a red one, then white, then red etc.  They stacked nicely on one another.

Hi Terry,
When the kids were small we made candy canes from plastic 
beads.  They actually fit on a pipe cleaner and you could put white 
for the main part and red beads for the bottom.  I don't remember the 
name of these beads. But a craft store would know for sure.

I bet you know Cindy.
