    Hello everyone -  On a whim, I made a bracelet out of some leftover
    materials from a necklace - hung a little silver $3 Treasure Chest
    from it, and since it opens, put a little 4mm carved opal heart
    inside, then sent it to a gallery hung with a tag calling it the
    Secret Treasure Bracelet - and it promptly sold for $80. 

    Since I rather enjoyed raking in $140/hour, I need to make MORE of
    same (despite that it's really just sticking stuff together, the $$
    supports my time to make hand-fabricated stuff!). The Treasure Chest
    is no problem; but I only have 2 more of those little hearts and I
    can't remember where the heck I got them! 

    They may even be synthetic - but at any rate, I recall they were
    inexpensive (3 for $8??). 

Any ideas for supplier?
