And $500 in lampwork is small potatoes, honey. You should see some of the
hoards I have seen from people here who shall remain nameless!!

Ooooh! I want to know who, and what you saw!!!

Im a new bead addict and I should think you cannot have too many beads

Penny, you are wise beyond your experience. It is true, grasshopper....."too
many beads" is an impossibility.

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!

A month's worth of groceries?!! I'm movin' to your house 'cause you
must have the most incredible mealplan imaginable.



Seriously, now I'm trying to think if I have any particular component,
the collection of which would fit into a shoebox.....
size 6W shoe: nothing.
size 11EE shoe: nothing
size professional basketball player's shoe: maybe my seed-beads, since
I rarely actually work in them and so only own 'a few'.

Actually, I have spent the past 2 days contemplating selling a huge
portion of my stash to allow me to quit the hell my job just reorg'ed
into and keep food on the table long enough for my disability pay to
kick in....

I think guilt is a BIG part of it. I just look at it and think...wow, that's
a month's worth of groceries.

Well IF you really want to sell stuff how about taking a part of each
whatever and sell it. That way you aren't "out" of any item (still have all
the goodies) but you have less overall stuff?

Just an idea,

Backstory: I took Wed-Fri off this week for the express purpose of
cleaning
my office, doing household paperwork and cleaning/organizing my bead room
and catching up on overdue repairs & projects.

It took all of Wednesday to clear off my desk, file, make phone calls,
clean, etc. my office. I mean all day, as in 8 AM until Midnight, breaks
for
meals and Avner included.

So far today I swept, vacuumed and mopped the bead room floor (this is
also
the cat's room). Set up 2 card tables, laid out & labeled some plastic
shoeboxes and brought in all the various bead, polyclay, fiber, etc.
related
junk from all over the house and proceeded to sort it by type. Then I
started in on the loose stuff covering my worktable.

I have an entire shoebox of lampwork. I must have close to $500 or more in
lampwork in there. ACK! And there's more I would love to buy. I have a
serious lampwork problem, lol.
I have an entire shoebox of Swarvoski crystals and pearls.
I have an entire shoebox of misc. glass beads (Czech, etc.)
I have an entire shoebox of metal beads & findings (99% of these are
sterling).
I have an entire shoebox of stone beads and pearls.

This does not even count the 3 parts drawer systems I have on the
worktable
which are full of every kind of bead known to man, practically. Nor does
it
count the strands hanging from the bookrack. Plus, I still have to sort
out
all my polyclay supplies and tools.

And I still need to start on projects and figure out how I"m going to
store
the contents of all these shoeboxes!!

In all seriousness, how do you decide what to keep and what to sell? I've

got to sell off some of this stuff, there's just too much. But I'm scared
that I might *need* it, ya know?

Advice??

Where are you I'll come pick them up to ease your mind. I would not want
anyone to feel guilty about beads. Save you the S&H cost.

You and me both, sister...hehe.

Ok...now my bead stash isn't small in my eyes, but compared to what you all
are saying I have NOTHING! LOL! And that *includes* my own polyclay beads!
What makes this so sad is that I've been beading for years now. sob

Okay, now I need to cry. Every bead I own would fit into a large-ish shoe
box.
Hmm...alright...some of the seed beads might need to lay on top, but
still...close enough.

I don't get it. Why are you upset---? Because you don't have enough
beads?

Because that's what it sounds like to me!
