I put 4 different types of pink beads in clear plastic bowls for the girls to use to make their necklaces and/or bracelets. Surprisingly none of the girls spilled the beads, but one of the nail technicians ended up knocking an entire bowl down on the floor towards the end of the party (she was making a necklace for the birthday girl when she finished doing nails - so sweet!). We swept them up pretty quickly.
