Taking Beads Off String

 

Sandra Paluzzi
The Bead Peddler®

 

A customer gave me the following tip.  Unfortunately, I lost her email and contact info.  If she reads this, I hope she emails me again so I can give her credit for her tip.

Hold a hank of seed beads over a bowl.  Cut the strings at the bottom of the hank.  Gently shake the hanks and the beads will fall off the string into the bowl. 

Gretchen Green suggests cutting the beads into a measuring cup so you can easily fill vials.
