Has anyone seen this new organizer from SU? What do you think?
Can you use both the mini and the regular stack and store containers in it? (Like in combination?)
Also- how big are the containers. Are the regular the same size as like what the clear buttons come in and the mini the same size as what the brads come in? I haven't ever ordered them before.
I kinda don't like how you only get 6 mini containers for the same price as 6 large ones but this really seems like a fantastic storage idea.
I ordered one of these and both sets of containers on the 2nd. Unfortunately, Mr. Brown has rescheduled my order so that it won't come until Monday, the 16th now. :(
When I get them, I'll try to remember to post about them if you don't already have an answer. UPS usually comes late though, AND I'll have company all week. Could be a while!

Thanks so much! I'm subscribed to your blog- so you could even just post about it over there

From all the posts I've seen from people who've gotten it (granted, they are over on the demo side), everyone seems to love it. The containers are the same ones that the buttons and brads come in, and all sizes fit. Either one large or two minis fit into each slot. Sure looks nice! I am tempted myself, except that I already have a serious lack of desktop space, lol!
I just loaded mine up last night and I think this is one of the best organizational tools that SU offers, after the Color Caddy. And it's very cute, I must say. It's assembled already and you just have to screw the handle onto the top. Spins very easily.
It does not come with any containers. It has 4 columns that hold 6 containers each. I had enough containers of SU brads/buttons/eyelets to fill up two of the columns, and ordered two packages of the empty containers (6/package with Stampin' Up printed on the lids) at $3.95 each.
Yes, I just got mine this week and I filled it with SU products so did not need to buy any containers. I'm limited on space too, but moved the boxes I had buttons, brads & eyelets in and it takes up less space than the stack of little plastic boxes. I don't regret the purchase at, it's much easier to grab what I need than to search thru boxes.
Fabulous! Be aware that they are a bit addictive though. . . I'm already needing a second one. :-) They spin beautifully and keep your embellishments where you can see them and use them.
Okay! I'm sold and gonna buy one! I have some containers already from previous SU! purchases but would like to store other stuff too like pretties, hodgepodge...
Anyone purchased the "extra" 6 packs? are they neatly divided into fours like some of the "prefilled" eyelet boxes sold by SU! or is it just one big open space?
Oddly this is not in the demo supply guide and demo support is "all circuts busy" for some reason today!
Thanks in advance!

I just got mine a week ago, and I hardly have any embellishments yet, only like 3, so it looks pretty sad all empty. But I love it and know I am going to really enjoy it when it gets filled! I just ordered some of the mini containers to pull apart my pretties kit and place on the caddy. I also plan on rearranging all my containers of brads/eyelets once I get them. Basically, I will place all colors families separate, each in one container, etc. This way I can look for them via color family.
Oh, Connie, I think that the containers you buy separately are just open, no dividers. I wanted to know too, but I am pretty certain they will not be divided. Would be nice, wouldnt it?
Try ordering the original version by the manufacturer ... tidycrafts.net You can order online. Much cheaper that way ($27). That's where I bought mine, but I didn't buy the spinner. Just the original stack n store containers.

oh! oh! thanks! you can buy the little boxes in regular and mini, both 'open' and divided in quarters! I can get the main unit through SU! (with my demo discount the price difference isn't significantly different and I get sales credit) and get the storage containers I want too! what a beautiful world!

Here's something that I saw at Janice Weightman's group meeting last month... Decorating Caddy
I thought it was an AWESOME idea... I just remembered it, though when I saw this thread. :rolleyes: I put my Pretties Kit in the containers, as well.
I'm off to decorate my caddy now...

When I first read this post, I kept saying "new stack and store???" and then I looked at the date of the original post! I should learn to check the dates on the threads first! LOL

I'm laughing here because I just thought the same thing. I thought, wait! What new stack n store caddy- then I realized this thread is 5 years old...duh!
Stack and Store Caddy?
