I'm giving everyone in this thread my E beads

I can relate to a lot of these!

-a bead breaks in half on one of your creations

-you finished making a cuff and realizing it doesn't fit your wrist.

fun tip if u ran out of a certain letter!!!
grab a sharpie o_O

if u have no i's, get a T and draw a line at the bottom!! u can do the same with F's to turn them into E's. i also use P's when i need a letter R!!!

i am so glad you asked devil

- SHAKY HANDS AND BAD EYESIGHT !!! it is a horrible combo specially because i enjoy starting projects at 3am. the prime at my bad hands and eyes.

- finding the letter you need but not in the right color cries

- the letter e.

- string. i always run out of it because i'll use up too much in fear of not having enough for a project

@divineghost: caps//

OH MY GOD THE BAD EYESIGHT YES. I ONCE MADE A CUFF AT LIKE 1 AM AND I COULDNT SEE THE COLORS AND I USED BROWN INSTEAD OF PINK LMAOOOO

purchasing beads and realizing theyre the wrong shape (hobby lobby beads suck)

bumping into a bead case and mixing it all up, also setting a jar of beads on my floor and spilling it

having to have a bunch of different cases just to make one thing

making a single just one bead too small

making a cuff just a bit too tight
