How do you organize your beading supplies?  |
| |
| I change my organizational styles every few months. I was wondering how others organize their supplies. Currently, I have the cheap $2 plastic containers (used for embroidery floss mostly). I have my beads separated by type, rather than color. I have a bin for gem stones, one for vintage lucite (okay, more like 4 for that), one for flower beads, one for charms, etc. I also have larger storage bins for glues, buttons, tools, hair findings, papers, ephemera, etc. | | | | | |

| | I have my beads and supplies organized based on color/ similar appeal really but like you my organization style changes frequently depending on my focus and available material. Currently I have several small plastic containers with dividers, plastic bags and tubes. I probably need something more uniform to help keep my supplies organized. | | | | | | |

| | At the moment, my beading supplies are very disorganized! They are basically all in a plastic drawer at my house. I plan on having a more organized system, but for right now I have no time! lol | | | | | | |

| | My son gets a prescription every month for ADHD and when the bottles are empty, I remove the labels, wash them out and put beads inside of the empty bottles. It works out great because the bottles have lids so if I knock them over by accident the beads don't spill. You can get a spice rack to put the bottles on so it's nice and neat in your work space. | | | | | | |

| | That's a great idea! We have a lot of prescription bottles in my house (my dad's diabetic, siblings with ADHD, anxiety, bi-polar, and one who had a heart transplant!). I hadn't thought of using them before for bead storage. I may have to use them for some of my supplies! Thanks! | | | |

| | I didnt think of that. I have some of the gumball machine containers that I plan on using as containers for earings and rings once they are made, maybe even bracelets and necklaces if they fit. | | | |

| | I'm a total organisation freak, so I have the plastic storage containers with tons of little compartments. I organise generally by type, but if there are a lot of that type I'll split into colour as well. I like the plastic containers as you can see without opening them what's in them, so you don't have to search everything to find what you're looking for. I have large plastic drawers that I put all my craft stuff into as well. | | | | | | |

| | while i dont do a ton of beading, i do do some. to that end i have gotten (as gifts) the tall boxes that hold screws (from the hardware section). they have lots of little drawers for each colour/style. also, fishing tackle boxes work well too. | | | | | | |

| | I have plastic bins. I use and a tote my boyfriend got for me. I havent decided if I want to organzie by bead or by color right now. I think I should go with color. I have one for charms and pne for chains and one findings, then a bunch for different types of beads. I think it might be types instead of color. | | | | | | |
