You might regret it later!
It is not a secret that very often beading needle gets tired and curves its back to show that it had enough. Don’t send it to a needle doctor!
Bent needle is not a problem. It is a solution in some cases of bead embroidery.
Recently when I was working on one of my new projects and I decided to use metal tubes, that are usually used for stringing a necklace, I went looking for my bent bead embroidery needles! The tubes were long, therefore the curve had a bigger angle. I even had to bend my bent needle a little more to pass through those tubes. Now I am glad I save every beading needle until the day it breaks.
Creative mission accomplished!
Happy beading!
