After finding a very large bag of beads while treasure hunting,
Baby Girl and I decided it was time to finally organize our bead collection.

So Many Beads!
This photo is from the aforementioned bag of beads, all for $1!
It was a great deal, but they were all mixed up. We decided to ditch our sloppy, sandwich baggie storage and buy a few plastic bead organizers instead.

Sorting the Rainbow
It took us a couple of rainy afternoons, but soon our beads were nice, neat and ready for crafting!
*The Little Man helped out twice by throwing beads all over the dining room ;)
Stackable
Not only are the beads now prettily organized, but the containers stack up for easy storage. I also love that they are translucent so that I can see what's inside at a glance
We found these containers in the craft section of Dollar Tree, but there were only 2 in stock. I checked online and discovered that they were available, but could only be ordered in bulk quantities of 24.
I figured, no problem whatever was left over could be used for something in the garage, right?
Nope, it took all 24. Every. Single. One.
I don't know if I should be proud of my collection or ashamed...we'll go with proud!
:D :D :D :D
What do we use our beads for? Baby Girl likes to make jewelry for herself and friends as well as various craft projects. I like to use them for hair accessories, Easter eggs and beaded pumpkins.
So that's our nicely organized bead collection. I hope you enjoyed the post, thanks for stopping by!
