Did this ever happen to you before?

So…for anyone who does amigurumi, and has those boxes with the dividers with like dozes, or hundreds (who is counting :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:) of littles safety eyes, each little eye and nose in their own divider, all organized…until you open the box on the wrong side and every - little - tiny - black - plastic - item fly like confetti everywhere around you, your furniture, your pet fur… did this ever happen to you before? No? Asking for a friend…:roll_eyes::sob:

Oh my yes :sweat::rofl: It came in a box that was already slightly broken and one day it just fully broke and all the pieces scattered on the floor I had to pick them up as I sat on the floor lol I got a new box to place them in but wow I had to search every nook and cranny

Is the top box the one that opened and everything fell down or the compartment box? :open_mouth:

My eye box is a mess because of that., I still haven’t gone back through them all.

The one with the black eyes and noses… took about 2 1/2 hours to put it back together. Hope I found all the pieces though so there’s none left for my dog to snack on.

I gave up on the safety eye boxes but this has definitely happened to me with stitch markers :melting_face:

Put a sticker on top so you always know which side is up from now on!

It’s definitely not just you :sob:
They’re all so tiny and fiddly! At least when I did it the box was mostly empty. I’m assuming this will happen again.

You are not alone :sob: I really want to buy a thing to identify the size of the eyes, cause of this… But also cause I bought what I thought was a box of safety eyes and it was actually a huge bag all mixed it :melting_face:

I hope it was at least 1/2 of the price! You can check dollar stores, they have the plastic storage box with compartments sometimes. My husband got a couple to organize his nails, screws, etc.
