    I agree with you. I prefer the bottle storage system. I do have a bunch of the ones that are 28 to a box, and they do work. They work well and are inexpensive. Currently, my bottle system, I have a 60 and a 240. I don't mind the layers. I travel a bit with work and the 240 let's me bring several paintings at once. But I don't have to worry about chipping a nail or dropping the box and it popping open. For me, bottle storage is the way to go. I've been doing this for about 4 years now, and I'm still addicted.

    I have a great idea for labels. I use a P-Touch label printer. The printer is a thermal printer that prints on label tape. The labels come off cleanly (no more goo gone!)The tape has a backing that is split horizonally down the length so you can just remove the top half of the backing, leaving the other half on so that you can easily grab the label to remove it. The label is repositionable too. You can move it to another container, or just straighten it out. Edit: I forgot to mention that it can print 2 lines and has symbols!

    Hi.
    I am in Ontario, Canada. Came across your videos tonight. You have the best ideas. One I have, I use 3 stylus in my kit, when I do my pictures. I make sure each has wax and is ready to go each time I start. I do this so that I do not have to stop and refill. I know it only takes seconds, but when I work on my project, I want to keep going and this works for me. Thanks for all your tips. They are very helpful.

    10,000 subscribers...yay!!!Congratulations on reaching this awesome milestone! That was a fantastic video. A lot of very useful information. I have a ton of storage. Because I'm a cardmaker as well, I've had the Elizabeth Ward containers for a long time. I actually own 8 of them. But, before they became so popular for diamond painting, I actually only paid between $8 and $11 for them. Now they are ridiculously priced. My preference is the bottles and Harbor Freight containers, which I know you can only get in the states. Storage is my drug...I'm not kidding...lol. Thank you so much for sharing!

    I did a Santa, with square drills, that had 79 colors. Took me 2 1/2 months, drilling about 4 hours/day. It was a "max color" from Royal. And I got it done 2 weeks before Christmas. :) BTW, I kitted it up in only 2 "tic tac" box containers. They're my 2nd favorite, 1st being the Elizabeth Ward system. Great video again, Rebecca.

    I actually use one of the Multi-Boxes you showed first. But mine doesn't have these huge gaps in the containers, so the diamonds don't fall out.
    I've got it from "The Beadsmith", which was a litte more expensive. When I remember right, I paid 20€ for this box and for me it works very well.
    I love to use it.

I used to use the 28 slot ones but the tops got way too loose and if it gets knocked over they all open and tip out. I also love storage and getting ideas from others. Thanks so much for all of the time and energy you put into your videos. You're awesome Rebecca

    I have the tictac containers and I like them. The case is small and lightweight so they're easy to move around and don't take up much space. I got it from Ali Express and a funnel came with it. The downside is that they crack. I have a case of 64. 3 or 4 are cracked.

I really enjoy watching your kitting up videos and do my kits the same with my sticker maker too. Thanks for sharing :)

    I love the tic tac boxes, I swear by them and the harbor Freight storage. I disagree with the statement that diamonds are hard to get back in the tic tacs. Just take the lid off and you just pour your diamonds back in like anything else.

    I had the same issue with my fingernails in regards to the Elizabeth Ward storage containers. I'd chip them or just not have the strength to pop them loose, so my fix for that is using the little angled tweezers that came with cheaper kits. Slide it under, pop it up, off I go. Those are my favorite containers.

    Another awesome video! Completely agree with your views, but my favourite differs slightly from yours (I prefer the Elizabeth Ward system). Those tic tac containers aren't the best, if you have a full container, you have to squeeze the nozzle of your tray down the small hole as you can't remove the whole lid. I have also had several pop open, which means you have to ALWAYS store them in the correct position - and lucky me decided to try them on my HAED of 197 colours project, not fun!

    Personally I like the Tic Tac boxes for several reasons. They fit nicely in a green tray that I can then place in 6 tiered Pen and Pencil Palace ( www.joann.com/pen-ink-palace/16097826.html ) which holds 42 green trays with the tic tac box in the tray. I can use one hand to pop the lid open when I hold the drill tray in my left and the flip top in my right to pour in the drills. Sometimes I’ll use the Elizabeth Ward containers to hold the larger quantities and place them in the top of the “palace”. The palace is perfect for all my DPs, especially the confetti heavy ones. I already have the drills in the up to 42 trays and have the flip top box in a 2nd green tray on top of the drill tray (to keep dust and pet hair out) so I don’t have to hunt for it. I place the little green tray in a larger white tray that’s easier to steady and catches any that comes out of the green tray while shaking to line up the drills. This was probably TMI, but wanted to share.
    For your Tic Tac box, you can use card stock and make dividers. Just put a slit half way down on each piece you want to cross. Also, make rows from left to right, not sideways. You should get 5 in each row, up to 6 rows in each section plus I think 2 extra turned sideways.
    Also, you can get the boxes in larger 3” and 6” sizes.
    I like the mesh bags. I’m going to get some for the overflow the diamonds for larger paintings.
