Default Misti corner storage?

These clear bits are getting lost on my work table. How are you storing them for easy access? I put washi tape on them to find them in the creative heap, but where do I put them between or during uses. The plastic I took them out of defeats logic of getting them back in and out. What ideas are out there, please. Getting so frustrated, I am about to trash them.

I'm struggling with the magnetic ones...I have to keep them separate because they have detached each other's magnets! All of them are loose and if I let them get close to each other they do all kinds of gymnastics to share the same space. So they live well apart on my desk. Flat.

I want to have them stay in their own place so that I can keep them where I keep them! My other pieces have a little space right on my desktop. In a small plastic tray.

Do you know of a good glue to make the magnets "stay home"?

I like your idea, Lydia, but my corners with those friendly magnets would be empty of magnets if I let them live that close to each other.

Since they are flat(ish) I put them in a Stampin' Up! clear mount case.

Right now I just have them stored in my regular sized Misti. Sometimes I poke them into my inkpad rack which is mounted in front of me. They cozy in next to two of my ink pads. I have to keep them away from a lot of other metal stuff on my desk since my magnets also came unglued. I think I glued them back with matte medium, but I imagine that is temporary. The non magnetic pieces stay with a lot of other tools in an open trough filled with little plastic pellets.

Try E6000 to glue the magnets back on... Could you stick them to a panel of some kind to store them? Like a small metal tray or something? I'm sort of flying blind here, since I don't have any of the corners in question...

Good question......I've had mine for awhile and keep them in the original packaging but it's a pain to get them out. Wonder what would happen if they were stored in something with a piece of the magnetic vent cover in it? May have to give it a try.......
