Neighbour buys bead picture from 6 year old.

a picture made of beads resting on a table. It features two pearl-like beads above a square yellow bead, a long thin red bead is on the left of the yellow one. At the bottom are two cork shaped beads, one in brown and one in black.

My neighbour had her 6-year-old grandson staying with her during half-term. He made some bracelets and pictures from beads and asked his Nanny to offer them for sale to the neighbours.

I bought one, after listening carefully to his earnest explanations about them all. She later told me that it had made his day and that’s exactly why I did it – when my own daughter was a similar age she made bracelets to sell and was delighted when people bought them.

Can you guess what it is?
