OOF that’s a mood qwq

Mine is definitely when I’m making a single and I’m trying to tie it off and all the beads slip off sad

aLsO when I make a cuff and only realize after tying it off that i didn’t tighten the beads enough!!

not having the right colors and string snapping

recent struggle: i finished a cuff a couple days ago and just realised the colours on the cuff are the wrong way around. I have already attempted making this cuff twice.

@AceNeedsAlife: Hobby Lobby beads really really do suck!! And when you put them next to any other decent beads they look terrible! I feel your pain.

Tying the knot with the string I use. When I tie it like you start off a shoelace bow, I do it multiple times and it doesn’t stay unless I tie it tight and I don’t want the thing to snap. With the crystal tech cord, I have to use glue to make it stay (I don’t use it often because of this)

buying too many beads and not having enough space in my storage bins for them

Having to use fishing line! kao cry

It works so well for a lot of projects but it always gets tangled, knots come undone, etc.!

running out of a color i need, string snapping, also just using fishing line in general, its hard to make knots with
