Hello everyone, and welcome back to my Thursday edition of tips and techniques. I have one simple storage solution for you today. When you buy embellishments, get rid of the packaging. You can then go:
from this
to this.
However, in the meantime, don't throw all of the packaging away until you take a good look at it and see if it can be used for other things, like using it as a mold to make more of the same embellishments like those you bought. You can see how I used the plastic packaging as a mold to imitate the embellishments I purchased by filling them with paper clay, or some other air dry clay. You can, of course, use clay that needs to be baked in an oven, but of course, you would need to remove it from the plastic packaging. 
In the meantime, I will finish these off and show you what I did with them. So, please stop by again next week for another adventure with my clay embellishments. Have a good week and happy crafting! Barbara
