Jane Flowers on Nov 08, 2015People in the state of Ohio make necklaces, key chains, or anything they can think of with scarlet and gray beads between them or coloring because of THE OHIO STATE BUCKEYES. They sell them at craft shows. That's all I know. I get every buckeye necklace, key chain, candle I own out to decorate when THE OHIO STATE BUCKEYES play that team up north. I hope that helps.Helpful Reply

Bev Deardurff on Nov 12, 2015I'm with Jane in Ohio, Buckeyes are used to make necklaces, key chains, earrings, etc. They are sold at craft shows. Merchants have to be very creative to make sure that their their ideas are unique, so that their "Buckeye" jewelry will be profitable. Belle Center, OHHelpful Reply

JoAnn Dibeler on Nov 17, 2015I've always wondered what that state name meant! I had to see what they looked like so I "googled" it and was amazed. Slightly different shape but other than that they look just like horse chestnuts! Nobody every told me horse chestnuts were good luck, I just picked one up off a PA sidewalk one day and carried it in my pocketbook. I guess TX doesn't have them because I have needed a new one for years. They must be related to buckeyes.Helpful Reply

Bev Deardurff on Nov 18, 2015Another idea would be to paint them like "pet rocks" and glue small "googley eyes" on them. Provide a house, food, etc. Finish them with a matte or glossy spray. Give them away for gifts.Helpful Reply
