MFT Creative Chat, Embellishments Storage

MFT is working harder than ever to inspire you, and we have come up with something we think you'll really enjoy. Our Design team Creative Challenge is a monthly feature , where we challenge our design team their creative side using a specific product, theme or explore our creative spaces and share valuable organizational methods tools and shopping strategies with you. This month the team is been asked to  show you organizational methods of how to store embellishments. Are you ready to get some ideas? Visit Kim's blog for a full list of participants.

As you perhaps know I am a sucker for storage and for my embellishments I found some great solutions. I {heart} brads and collected quite a bit since I started cardmaking, I have them stored in these clear boxes.

 I have four of them filled with all kinds of brads

One for the mini brads, I use them mostly and almost on every card:-)

One for charms, I don't use those much often but hey I just love the sight of them...hihi

One for special shaped brads, big brads, spiral clips, bling brads...

And one for huge brads, I use those biggies mostly for scrapbooking

Below you can find some bigger boxes, You can buy those at embroidery stores like this one.

Buttons *sigh* in all shapes and sizes. This is only a small collection, which is sort out color by color. Very handy because you don't have to look very long which color you need for your creation. I have more but they are not sorted out... yet.

Little metal embellishments, wooden spools, clothespins, cute wooden ladybugs... name it and I have it LOL I like the versatility of all those shapes

Further more I have lots (18 gosh that sounds like a lot when I write this down *iek*;-)) of those awesome Ikea boxes, in which you can put all those other big fun embellishments. Bling is for all those gorgeous bling swirls, little gem stones etc. Flowers, for all the paper flower I use most, and Bags for the paperbags, kraft bags, cellophane bags...

I stamped labels with the Typewriter Alphabet, doesn't have to be perfect. Just so you know what's in them white boxes, I think the effect with this stampset is fun!

And because I always love sharing, I want to share this Typewriter Alphabet candy with one of my Blog readers. Leave me a comment and I will draw a winner next week Monday January 2, 2012! Good Luck:)
