Super cool.

 

That's really what I was wanting from the get go. After realizing it was WAAAAAY over any amount of effort I'd have to put into something I knew very little about, settled on a bead organizer instead. 

 

Its my hope that one of the CHILDREN OF THE HIVE tackle something like this hard and in a professional manner someday.
