Storage Idea if Interested

My kids and their friends like to chew gum so I usually keep a large pack of Extra in my car. They come in these great plastic storage cases and I thought that it was too handy to throw away. So I used the cases in my craft room to store smaller embellishments.

Love it! I do the same with Crystal Light containers - they make great dividers to hold pencils, pens and any other tall things in my craft bag.

I"m going to check my local upcycle/art reuse center. I saw a basket of empty tic-tac containers last time I was tere. Maybe I can ask them to solitt these. Love this idea!!!
