  1. Homemade Necklaces

    Share Share Post
    Little girls made necklaces also long ago. When the roan berries were ripe they gathered some. They also got a needle and thread. The thread is put through the roan berries - one by one 'till they are all used up and the necklace long enough to go round the little girl's neck.
