Mini Spinning Tops

This one was almost too easy.  

Some of the beads were shaped very much like old-fashioned spinning tops.  Here is an example of a  19th century top from the Victoria & Albert Museum of Childhood:





And here are the beads from the necklace.  I left one of the beads its original pink, and painted the other one yellow for contrast.  We made a special trip to Home Depot tonight get the perfect sized screws.  (Thank you, Bob!)
