[Nfb-krafters-korner] Christmas tree

Tue Nov 29 12:05:33 UTC 2011

The three sectional ones are with the plastic ware, in the kitchen section.  The ones, Ohio is talking about, are in the craft section, I think.  I also found snack trays, with lids, in the kitchen section, for about $5.  I have 4 of them, now.  I can now have more than one project going at once.  I hadn't finished the light house, then, and needed to start the Christmas tree.  They are very handy, for the cost.  Five deep sections and a lid that snaps closed, with a handle.

Hello Debbie and all,

Terry bought them at Wal-Mart. I bought a container there also that is specifically made for beads. The store had a number of different sized containers to choose from. The one I chose is plastic, closes securely with latches and has 28 sections for beads, but the number of compartments can be adjusted because you put in the inserts as you wish. They stay in securely too. The bead box is small enough to comfortably sit on my lap. However, I don't dare hold it there, I keep it on the table just in case my cat decides she wants to sit on my lap, or my dog wants to push her nose up to say hi! I didn't expect my cat to get up on the dining room table when I was making my tree, but she did! She rarely sees my husband and I sit there and wondered what the heck we were doing. she stayed to watch even when she saw it was not food. Of course, I was extremely protective of my beads and took the cat off the table! But it was really cute!

Hi,
Yes, this tree was real hard. I swop colors on the last 6 colored pins on row 5. Where did you find the containers?

Ohio;
After helping you, I found some problems with my fifth row and then my wire came undone, I think, on thr fourth row.  After sourting all the pins, which

was really hard, with out any help, I did row 4 again.  Then I found I was missing a colored pin.  I found the problem.  My Apex, some how had deleted one of the colors from my patern.  I got the colors corrected, from Joyce, finished row 4 and finially finished row 5.  This is the hardest project I have ever done.  I bought 2 sectioned containers, last week and put my red, yellow and green in their sections, in one container and the other 3 in their sections, in the other container.  It sure was easier than dealing with bags.  I think another tree will go a lot smoother!
