Storing Eyelets, Brads, Beads, and other small embellishments
by Laura Williams

Are you overwhelmed by baggies of eyelets, brads, beads, and other small embellishments? Well there is a solution that is inexpensive and easy to use.

I recently purchased some of the Tic Tac like cases in a storage box from Walmart for less than $5 to store these type items in. The cases are found in the general craft section of the store.

It is one big case with 24 small tic tac like cases inside it. The cases have a lid that lifts out for you to fill them and when the lid is intact, there is a little flip up dispenser that allows you to dispense one or two (or more) of that particular item.

Since all the cases are see through, it makes it even more convenient to find just the right color of eyelet, bead, etc. You can label your eyelet, brads, etc. thus making your scrapping log of what items you used easier to maintain.
