Bead tray invention #2

[u/sewciopath01]

Thank you all for your kindness to my little bead tray idea yesterday! I also made one for a friend, and thought I’d show that one as well. Sadly, I forgot to take pretty pictures before I gave it to her! 🤦‍♀️ This is just the clay, before any firing or glazing. But you’ll get the idea. My friend uses larger beads, and no loom, so I had a little fun. The wells for the beads are the flower petals. To empty, you scoop the beads up into the center, and then down the stem.

You just gave me ideas for my air drying clay

I need more tea for a Monday morning. Without looking at the sub I read that as a bread tray. Was thinking what a cool idea for oils and sauces to dip your bread in. 😂

Great idea to organize your beads though!!

Both of your designs are so clever and useful.

You may not want to hear this but it seems to me that you may be able to license your design to a reputable manufacturer. (It seems like both could be adapted for thermoform manufacturing.)

Here's a LinkedIn article about licensing fyi. https://www.linkedin.com/advice/0/how-can-you-profit-from-licensing-your-industrial
