Abstract: A kit for making jewelry encoded with a secret message. The kit includes a plurality of beads, each bead having an indicator corresponding to an alpha-numeric symbol. The beads are grouped together and held in a container having separate compartments for each grouping. Threads for stringing together the beads are provided and may be elasticized. A first user chooses beads and assembles them in a predetermined order onto a thread to make an article of jewelry. The predetermined order is chosen to encode a secret message. A second user utilizes a decoder to decode the secret message. Two different decoders may be utilized to decode the message. The first is a card depicting each color bead with its corresponding symbol. The second is a device having an individual keyboard key for each alphanumeric symbol where a depiction of each of the beads is shown on the keyboard key.
