basket for overflow beads |
someone recently asked about what containers we would recommend using for organizing your stash.
I use a variety of thing to put my stuff in.
|
clear straws for beads |
for me beads are important,
I like to put them in the most stable containers that I can still see through.
I like the clear screw tops in several sizes the best,
these boxes are ok and cheaper than the others.
|
basket of thinga i use a lot |
|
many baskets |
clear straws can be used for small amounts of beads, just use a pair of needle nose pliers and a lighter to close the bottoms
|
box o'rama |
I have boxes to hold a variety of things from projects in process
some I have had for a looong time
|
tin of flowers |
I also have a weakness for tins
I find many of my big boxes at Ross for about 1/2 what they cost in joannes or micheals
|
box of krenik and empties |
|
SRE box |

It all depends on how you work best
I like oraganization
with a little chaos while i work
got a new desk to work at too
with more shelf space it helps keep me from spreading out all over the house
Yup, I used to love tins, but now I only like containers I can see into. I like to keep projects in the 12x 12 plastic boxes you can find in the scrapbook dept at Michaels. They have them on sale all the time for 3.50. They are perfect for me for current project and a box to collect items for a future project. Terry always says that I never saw a plastic box that I couldn't find use for.

Great to see how another crafter stores items.

I'm not a quilter, but an embroiderer/beader.

What a helpful post-thanks for sharing! Your handwork is just beautiful. BTW, did you know there is a mink loose in your craft room? Lol.
