I bought some huayruro seeds last week for jewelry making. These seeds (Ormosia coccinea) grow throughout South America and parts of Central America, and they are considered good luck. The bright orangey-red color with signature black spot reminds me of ladybugs!
I've made a couple things with them so far, a bracelet (using tagua seeds too) and some earrings (a pair to sell and a pair for me!)

Just wanted to say thanks for linking our blogs! I look forward to reading more about you and your work
Fascinating.Must have been a time consuming process to make the holes.Am not sure I would have the patirnce for that.
They're a great shade of red! *Wonders if I've found an alternative to coral*
These seeds are beautiful! I love the rich shade.
