So cute!! That's so good, I have literally THOUSANDS of these beads, and I would have never come up with this idea haha!

Out of curiosity, are the beads acrylic or glass? I've been looking for glass beads with letters for some time now and haven't found any in my country They are acrylic. Acrylic is so hard and shiny, but light and safe. Have you tried it? If I wore glass beads on a bracelet I would worry they might chip, on a porcelain sink for example. I really love plastic and collecting ponies satisfies my desire for all different kinds and colours.I don't mind acrylic beads at all, though I mostly use glass beads I also wanted to make such necklaces for ponies, but sadly the beads I managed to found were very low-quality. The paint used to color the letters was able to come off even just from cleaning up or stain my fingers if I held them for long enough I was worried they might stain the ponies too and had been looking for glass-made beads since then as a safer alternative. There are also times when glass-made beads - especially seed beads have a similar staining problem, but it's less common. Also, I adore the outfit you made for Baby Glory You're pretty crafty yourself! Oh my goodness! Thanks so much for pointing that out... however I have never had that problem with any of my beads. I tested them by soaking them in water overnight then trying to rub the paint off - nothing happened. I will make sure I check each time I buy new beads to make sure. For the record nothing that I sell including G1 ponies and accessories is suitable for small children. They have not been tested for lead and pthalates and the fancraft items that I make may have small parts that could injure a child. All my items are meant as fun items for collectors, which may include older children.I wouldn't recommend leaving any coloured materials in contact with ponies indefinitely including Hasbro items such as saddles and other plastic accessories as the colour is known to transfer. This is why I photograph my ponies in outfits or with accessories but they are all stored individually wrapped in unbleached acid free tissue paper and those on display are not touching.

I never really worried about ponies wearing jewelry and I loved to make things for them and they stayed on display with them too. I took the things off them after the incident with the beads, but luckily the other stuff never damaged them and now my Wind Whistler is wearing a necklace and she isn't affected (yet) either, so I'm sure your necklaces will be safe too
