Default Embellishment Storage Find

I found some storage boxes in Walmart (here in Canada) that are perfect for embellishments. They are in the beading section for $10. They come with about 50 small snap boxes and are in a little briefcase type box, it has a handle to pick it up with. I bought a bunch of them, and asked for more for Christmas.

I have already filled up 4 and I'm not done yet! I separated all of my SU brads and eyelets into colors. My plans are to have them grouped by color so when I am looking for something 'red' I have all of my red stuff together so it is easy to decide whether I need a button, brad or whatever.

I just had to share because I thought they were such a great deal. They have a blue and gold label on them with the name 'Darice'.

Thanks! I need one too, and that sounds like a perfect solution.

Yup - that's the same one. I see in the review that she had some problems closing them, some did need a bit of work, but maybe only 4 out of 50, and I had them working by wiggling the lid a bit. They close securely. I put labels on the ends of them and put them snap end down in the container.

The medium sized container holds about 200 brads.
