I've finally done a project I've intended for years: I made Mardi Gras style beads for Pride month, using good quality glass beads. Now I have a bunch of rainbow necklaces to wear and gift. (I'm still debating whether to offer some to my co- workers. Each string took two hours to do.)
here's a pic
I hadn't done any beading in ages. My stuff's pretty organized, enough that I knew I needed to buy materials for the necklaces. When I went to put away the remaining beads, though, I found myself looking for the fire polished beads I had last bought, because they weren't where I thought they should be.
In summary: Oh my god, I have so many beads.
I did find the ones I was looking for. In the process I organized the supplies that had not been sorted, found things I didn't remember I had bought/acquired, and was confronted by the quantity of pop tab flowers that had been my last craft project of note.
