From Babies to Buttons

Buttons, pins, beads and other crafting doo-dads can become disorganized and lost faster than you can blink. This is especially the case if you have little ones "helping" you to organize.

Put those little ones to work for you! Don't toss or recycle used (clean!) baby food containers. Instead, save them to store all of your smaller crafting supplies.

Stage 3 bottles and plastic containers work especially well, as they can hold larger or more pieces. If your husband is in an organization pinch, offer him some used containers to sort his screws, nuts and bolts. These containers not only sort well, but sort easily.
