Chis what a wonderful tutorial, I LOVE it! Chris if you have ever seen me seed bead you know I don’t do tiny well. So I took your idea in a different direction and downsized the tubing and put marbles on top. I’m calling them my Marble Pens. Once I made a few I thought wow I can put anything on top that I want so I made a fish and a heart pen for Beads of Courage. Talk about FUN, thanks Chris.
