What's also cool is that it's flexible enough to bend and pour the beads back into their containers, even if it's a bead tube.April Dawn Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14966393127677445607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6478886320275848099.post-68972780621738783542012-10-13T20:12:19.418-07:002012-10-13T20:12:19.418-07:00You know what I made mine with, a small cream chee...You know what I made mine with, a small cream cheese container, a dowel and hot glue gun. I still have it and works great with my beading needles, it's very comfortable. <br /><br />I didn't leave the dowel flat but left it sticking out a bit so i could spin it better, like a top. A THEN, with the lid, I poked another hole and was able to close the container of beads for when I needed more.<br /><br />But great job!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15415449195925067870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6478886320275848099.post-51182411863632539002012-10-12T20:17:41.179-07:002012-10-12T20:17:41.179-07:00Exactly!

As for the Pringles, lets just say that I haven't gotten a lid in quite a long time, not that I really need any new ones. <br /><br />I was thinking about having my husband make me something out of wood but I like how my lids and nails don't take up very much space and I can have one for every color that I'm using without it costing much.April Dawn Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14966393127677445607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6478886320275848099.post-81838045630670033402012-10-12T18:40:49.473-07:002012-10-12T18:40:49.473-07:00"Thank you, bead spinner!" LOL. I've..."Thank you, bead spinner!" LOL. I've never seen these before either, but I assume in the video that she was coming at the beads at the wrong angle. They should just design it like a salad spinner with a pump handle. Who wants to listen to that horrible motor whine?<br /><br />And do people really still eat Pringles?Nelson Beadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08619305473060519139noreply@blogger.com
