I keep on spilling my beads everywhere cus I don't put the lids on and then I kick the boxes or push them off my bed by accident and they go every where. I've probably spent hours cleaning beads off my floor and resorting them :')

Every time a bead touches my floor a little bit of my soul dies 1.gif /j

We moved recently and all of our beads were sorted except for this one jar that my sibling calls the miscellaneous bead jar. It has everything from those flat round coin beads to size 11/0 seed beads. The other day I was looking through it so I had it out sitting on my blanket on the couch, I went to move completely forgetting that the lid was not on it and it spilt all over my blanket and down the middle of the couch (one of those reclining couches that’s split into parts and is hollow underneath) luckily the couch cushions caught some of the larger beads but we spent a good 15 minutes at least on the floor picking up tiny seed beads from under the couch so that the cat wouldn’t find them and try to eat them.
Another really bad bead spill was when I was making this shawl that was really heavy on the beadwork and I had a bunch of strung seed beads that I was going to be using for it. When I was undoing the bunch the string snapped and I ended up with an entire shawls worth of tiny seed beads on our carpeted floorcrying it was awful, I was still finding beads in the carpet months later (thankfully it was before we got our cat so I didn’t have to worry about her trying to eat those beads

i had a whole ass new bead set that has a whole bunch of sections and was perfectly sorted, and it fell, wich would be fine exept the fact that the lid wasnt a normal bead lid thing, it didnt attack it just sat on top because it got broke during shipping, and they wetn EVERYWHERE! i still havent finished sorting them

i had a mixed plastic bin of beads on my bed and it was a particularly bad day so i didnt move anything off my bed. now i gotta explain rq that the bedframe i had was too big for my mattress, so it caught half the beads and scewed the rest, twas awful to clean up because ill be the first to admit that my the under of my bed is anything but clean.
