Think the problem most of us have is that we come up with too many ideas and want to test them all out. :)<br />AnnaAlmost Precioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02349435936032378395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934854770180589403.post-41401187090459226702009-05-22T17:21:33.076-04:002009-05-22T17:21:33.076-04:00You are not alone!

When my worktable gets too full of "samples" and trials and errors to be re-considered at a later date I just find some transparent plastic containers and chuck them in according to level achieved! I bet that everyone who works with beads has these hidden secrets.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06793239611501867040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934854770180589403.post-26569176154665304262009-05-20T13:01:57.019-04:002009-05-20T13:01:57.019-04:00it is fun to go back to that 'random' pile we have...it is fun to go back to that 'random' pile we have and look to see what we have done.

There are far too many ideas that went from head to bead that just didn't turn out right. And still more that were attempts to follow magazine patterns that I just couldn't grasp the concept - or substituted a different size bead that made so much difference that the pattern didn't work. <br />My guess is - WE ARE NOT ALONE! Love the idea about pinning the pieces where you can see them though -(Dawno) - 'out of sight out of mind' is why so many projects go unfinished....coolmoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07581326618275214554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934854770180589403.post-63954106470162755122009-05-19T22:21:56.888-04:002009-05-19T22:21:56.888-04:00What a great idea to tack them up in the same spot...What a great idea to tack them up in the same spot.

I keep two styrofoam blocks about 15" across and 20" high on my worktable (propped against the back wall) with all the unfinished or 'sampler' ideas pinned to it. Sometimes I pick one up and do something, othertimes I just look and wonder if I should just disassemble and try something else with the parts.ohdawnohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01995493308490806364noreply@blogger.com
