Jewelry parts and beads

My Mom is the greatest!
She works at this large department store selling and fixing watches. Her department also sells jewelry, bracelets, necklaces, earrings and so on. Sometimes customers aren't careful and rip things to pieces, or they fall on the ground and another person steps on it, or items are returned but can't be sold again. That way a lot of items and item parts are thrown away.
But not when my mom is working! She will go through the trash bin to get everything out of it again. She's like, why would you throw those things out? You can still make use of them. To recycle or just put back together again. Sometimes it's just one tiny thingy you have to re-attach and it's good again.
So, my mom saves up a lot of those parts and every now and then she brings me a bag of goodies I can use for my creative adventures! Love you mom!
I made this picture of some of the items I got this week. There are loads more, but I haven't found the time yet to go through all the ziplock bags.
