Mini tutorial - Improvised bead rack

This is hardly a tutorial so much as a shared idea. If you only occasionally make beads a dedicated rack can take up too much valuable space in your craft room. On the fairly rare occasions that I make beads I improvise a rack using large cutters like this, the top of a can that doubles as a bangle mould, or a shallow box (Green and Blacks miniatures boxes work very well, you just need to reinforce the corners with tape as repeated baking in the oven weakens the glue).

So there you go - see how inventive you can be!

  1. Hello,Rebecca:
    The beads seem to be really fine.
    The variety of shapes and colors makes the opportunity and temptation to create something interesting with them.
    Also You've shown a bit of Your workshop 'mystery',which is also very precious.
    -All the Best to You-
