Standard Artbeads Issue
Date:December 6, 2011
"When you are hired as an Artbeads "filler" you are given one of these scoops. You have to have one if you're going to be hand counting a thousand flatbacks or 24 3mm bicones. It's not quite as wide as the 2" X 2" bags so to put beads away is a scoop and a zip! I wonder how many beads mine has pushed across a bead mat?"

Pros: Size, Price, Versatile, Unique, Ease of Use, Quality
Creation: tool
"Seed beaders alert! This is a must have for those larger messes. The side scoop is fine for small jobs. This is about the size of a coffee scoop, but has a low profile. It is really a beautiful piece of jewelry in itself. I was surprised at the quality. You could use this as a pendant in a kitchy necklace, really."

Pros: Price, Quality, Size, Unique, Versatile, Ease of Use
"Since I am forever losing my beads on my lap or even on bead boards, this little scoop works well in two ways for me: One, for the cleanup of loose beads and also as a way to play with colors to see which combinations work best before I start my jewelry piece."

"I am a neat freak and the one thing that bugged me about seed beading was the cleanup was so time consuming. I went to a class with a woman who had this bead shovel and sent me to Artbeads.com to find it and my life is so much happier. This is just the right size to scoop beads from my bins when I am working and back in when I am done!"

Pros: Price, Size
"I got so sick of stepping on the beads my wife knocked on the floor, I bought her one of these as a hint! She actually uses it and it seems to be working - there are far less beads rolling around in my world! This was worth any price. She'll get one in her stocking every year to come!"

"I think that a beading shovel is a smart idea. If you need to move or pick up beads, it'll be a lot easier than using your hands or a spoon."
