umm opps!

Crap!

I just spilled my whole container of small pearls on the bed/floor. I guess that means it's time for an embellishing break...

I think I need to consume a Cabury Cream egg first though. :P

Mmm, Cadbury Creme Eggs. They may not make everything better, but they help.

Yes, so true. And it's is coming to the end of CCE season too... so sad! :P

Oh dear...I hate it when I do this!! I've heard about a trick that's supposed to help pick them up -- use the nozzle attachment on your vacuum cleaner and stretch a nylon stocking over the opening, keeping it tight with a rubber band, then run the attachment over the "spill area" and the beads will be sucked up onto the nylon, but not into the vacuum cleaner. ;-)

I've heard that too but haven't tried it. Luckily most of them spilled on the bed... and the ones that got away on the floor this time are expendable. :>

Ha ha!! Who knows how many countless beads have ended up in my carpet...
