puca bearsI bought some 4mm wooden beads yesterday, for deco purposes........made in Germany, from a well-known brand..................and when i got home I noticed on the reverse of the label - "speichelfest" - which means resistant to saliva!!! WHY???????? Am I missing something here?

LeftyBears by Natascha SaboAhm, well, I' been using wooden beeds for years for several purposes and that "speichelfest" has always been on the label, but I don't know why?
puca bearsHi Natascha
well - at least I'm not going mad (matter of opinion, I suppose?).............but it did strike me as strange! Hey ho.......what would I know?
BTW, will you be at the Blummel's Barentreffentag next month? and if so, DO bring your gorgeous snow leopard!

LeftyBears by Natascha SaboI just tried to find something on Google, but there was noting about a law, just that "speichelfest" means you can't lick off the paint So, if you are a paint-eating-junkie you bought the wrong beeds 
And yes, I will be exhibiting at Blummel's. But I'm not sure if I will bring my snow leopard, as I booked only half a table (1m) and Charikar is bigger than that! Not to forget, that I don't want to sell him.
puca bearsGoodie - see you there..............and I promise not to lick any beads (STILL think it's strange!)

Maria (who would LOVE to see the snow leopard anyway!)
