[Nfb-krafters-korner] Seed Bead Storage

[Laurie Porter]

They actually have plastic boxes you can buy in a box that  look like tic 
tac boxes that is what I use for my beads. I find it is easy to put whatever 
labels I need on them. they are a sinch to remove the entire lid from the 
top and scoop beads back into them. There are actually  holders and travel 
carriers designed to fit several compartments of these tic tac like boxes.
