Another satisfied Shilala Bead user here.
As for the "dust" I use the sheets of cedar that come in boxes (between rows, on top, etc) and cut them just a tad bigger than the bag of beads and place the beads on top of the cedar sheets. This makes moving them around much easier and clean up is a breeze, all you have to do is pick the beads off the cedar and simply blow the dust off of it.
Thanks again for a great product Scott.
