What do you do when you get a bead that's humongous? Let's see. Maybe use it as a pendant on a long necklace so you can use it as a weapon in an emergency. Use it as a fan pull as long as it's not a head-klunking level. Hey, use it as a purse charm for a carriage bag (one of those huge purses). I wonder if I have enough that I could have un-matching drawer-pulls. I should check out what bolts might work.
Most of the ones I've gotten have never been used.
What about the rest of you?

Tina, how big is humongous? and how heavy (which is likely to make a difference to me because I also use hollow kukui nuts which are big but very light weight.), and what material? Shape?
I hope it isn't as big as a pumpkin, because I wouldn't now what to do with a bead that size either.

My LBS is now selling pins for large and large-hole beads. They're like heavy-duty headpins and eyepins. Of course, now I'm wondering what I did with the ones I bought a few weeks ago.
Cheers, Carla

It's the glass ones I have the biggest problem with, partly because of the weight. But even lighter things are something of a problem for me. I don't like long necklaces, so I'm not inclined to make them. They take a lot more thought for me and I just don't attain that comfort level.
I prefer to keep to under 15 or 20mm. I really need to broaden my horizons.

You know, I have a couple changeable pendants, but I've never used them. I like having the other goodies on my necklace, and I don't want to have to think about changing things when I want a necklace to match.
