I created these from glass jars I had for a long time. I had soaked and scrubbed the jars trying to remove the paper and finally realized "it's not coming off" and I let them sit there and dry out. Then it dawned on me ... if I can get the paper and texture off .... why not put more paper and texture on them.
Each one is different, with a wish (bead) trapped inside and texture embellishments on the outside. You could save them for the holiday tree in December or hang it somewhere in the house or studio NOW for all the good wishes to gather,
Many years ago I was told by a weaver friend that every time I tie a knot, I should tie a wish or a good thought in the knot. I have always passed this weavers tale on to my students and as I made these "wishes" I had good thoughts flowing into every one of the little gems.
