Organization 101

You may or may not know that we have our home for sale and we are working on downsizing.  What does that mean in a crafters world?  It means really small spaces to keep your supplies in.  And utilizing every nook and cranny. 
A friend of mine (Beth B) came up with a great idea for storing small accessories but keeping them right at your fingertips.  Thanks Beth!! So I want to share this with you.

The round containers have a magnetic back and come in a 2 pack from Michaels.  Bought a pack of  magnets, also from Michaels.  The magnets are the size of a business card.  Peel and stick magnets on the side of the ink organizer and then stick the round containers with buttons, brads, eyelet, etc to the magnet on the organizer.  I love this idea!!
Tell me what you think about space saving idea.  And share any ideas you have come up with.  I would love to learn more.  Thanks for visiting for a while.  Come back often.
