Bead Measuring Tool

Quite often, I need to know how much space I’m working with when I create a bead design. I got tired of manually doing the math around how many beads will fit into space “x” and “y.” So I made a little tool in Google Sheets that calculates a few helpful things:

1. How wide and or tall is “x” amount of beads (in inches?)

2. If I want to take up “x” and “y” inches with a design, how many beads are required?

3. How many pegboards do I need if there are “x” number of beads or inches in a design?

Bonus Win: Quite often, I’ll forget to measure my piece after I’ve already put it away. This is a handy way to get the measurements of your piece without having to break out your ruler again!

Feel free to copy it to your Google Drive! Have suggestions or see something wrong? Leave a comment here, or on the Google Sheet. Happy bead measuring! 😀
