Size E Glass Bead Projects

Size E beads are larger than Indian/seed beads but smaller than the plastic mini pony beads.

Great for Jewelry.

---

Hamantashen is the special cookie/pastry for Purim.

It is traditionally shaped like a triangle.

This represents the three corner hat worn by the villian Haman.

Because we are imitating a pastry, I have used amber or orange beads but any cake color bead can be used.

For the filling on a real Hamantashen we use Jam, Poppy Seeds, and some kids Peanut Butter.

So the color of your feeling can be Red, orange, purple for jam.

Black for Poppy seeds. (Mun in Yiddish)

Brown if you want peanut butter color.

Have fun with these!
