Storage tip: craft material

The hidden side of craft is the amount of excess materials that build up over a short period of time. There are the tools necessary to make simple projects, leftover lengths of ribbons, various coloured threads and those odd bits and bobs that don’t have a natural home.

These small, open boxes are a great way to store such items neatly and in easy reach. We painted each box in a soft stone colour and printed out labels describing their contents. Attach the labels using double-sided tape, then stack the boxes in a tray, making it easy to store them on a high shelf. Similar boxes can be sourced from craft stores.
