What to do with unused beads?

Hey, its been a while since i've really been active on this site but i have have a question about my unused kandi beads/ bracelets

For context, in 2020 I used to be big into making Kandi. However i stopped making kandi bracelets due to my sensory issues to the beads against my skin in early 2021. Now, I have a bunch of unused beads and such that has been sitting around for 2 years. I've tried making charms out of them but they got extremely complex extremely fast due to the weird shapes of some of the patterns and the beads not responding well to a non rectangular pattern. Don't know if im doing anything wrong but since that failed i don't know what to do with them. I was thinking of selling them but i don't think people will wanna pay for a bunch of secondhand beads that may be chipped or damaged from being tossed around in the box from when i used to search for colors.

Does anyone have any ideas for what i can use these beads for? Thanks if you suggest something!

TLDR: I used to make kandi but i stopped making it due to sensory things and now i have a bunch of beads and don't know what to do with them and i need peoples help to find things to make with them that arent bracelets

Tbh even thoughz the beads might be slightly damaged, some people would go all over for that if you sell it for cheap enough (at least ik some people who wouldz /gen

You can always makez ladder stitch designs! & there are muiti stitch and peyote stitch charms!! You can always watch YT tutorials for that type of thing! ( I don't have any advice for charmz though since I didn't make a bunch when I stillz had my kandi But I got plenty forz ladder stitch due to my first kandi creationz being a ladder stitch lizard!!!) And you can always do commissions online or IRL for kandi bracelets. You can also make flat pannels (using muiti stitch or peyote)

For the braceletz (if you haven't alreadyz) You can sell those, Or give themz away to family or friends. Or possibly to classmates & peers!
