Do you bead at the computer?

ingrambead · 03-20-2003, 03:43 PM

I figured out how to weave while on the computer. There are so many popups everywhere and my computer is slow (4 years old and no upgrades) that I fill the waiting time working on my diagonal weave right here at the computer. I have it tied to a knob on my computer desk and just keep weaving along. Now I don't quite so guilty being on line when I'm supposed to be beading.:Angel2

I see no one else has posted anything here so I'll tell the truth, lol I do bead while at the computer!! I thought I was alone! Im an internet junkie and I luv beading so I do them at the same time. The only thing I hate is when my size 14 beads fall IN BETWEEN THE KEYS!!!!!! :Chatter :Chatter :Chatter

Beautiful work Ingrambead!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't figure out a way to get my loom to fit on the desk with my computer otherwise I'd give it a try.

Any suggestions??? By the way my loom is 8 inches wide and 4 feet long, if that helps

:o Yup.....I'm busted. LOL I like to read and bead.

ingrambead · 03-21-2003, 12:14 AM

That loom sounds like it needs its own room!

:dancing45

Ooo I just had to use one of these new thingies.

Thanks for the complement. Its going to be a necklace I hope to wear to the Gatherig of Nations in ABQ next month.:blushing:

did it once.. I was trying to remember how to do that spiral rope chain and needed to just get it started up... but then I sat down and tried to bead and type and stuck my...my.. chest with a needle and said forget it...never again.

:20: I am a robo-beader. I bead at the computer and listen to MP3s, do some surfing and sometimes watch movies. I try to stick to listening to music, cause I get less done if there are shiny pictures distracting me.

Naw, I'm staring at the screen for the majority of the day that I want to run away by night. Unless of course I'm in a fiesty mood, but I won't bring my beading in that. Sometimes I wonder why I have a computer at home, let alone that we have two. Anyway, to answer the question instead of telling stories, no, I don't bead at the computer, but I do use that lovely bead design program that spotted eagle suggested. :)

Well, I actually don't bead while at the computer.
My table is to small.
And my pc is to fast, the pages are loaded too fast ;)

:D

I must admit, I sit around on powwows.com, reading threads and working on my leggings, but its sequins work, and I have dumped my plate twice in front of my computer. Maybe that should be a lesson. *LOL* Picking them up is not fun, but yeah, I have a slower computer too, and I will just sit here and work on the leggings while I am at the computer or chatting with friends. Haha. Most of them are slow typers, so I can usually get a few sequins done while they are typing out their msgs.
