Thank you for showing your method for storage. I did the same but had a couple of shoe boxes that I used. Not all work but certain ones do and I had a few. Appreciate your time to demonstrate. Peace and love abide with you 💕
I've been looking into storage solutions. Right now I just have everything in envelopes. Each envelope is for one kit and I have the baggies labeled. But the more I do the more I realize this isn't going to work for long 😅 I like your idea. I have a Michael's local to me and they are definitely cheaper than other stores or even online
Yes I got everything at my Michaels the photo boxes are only a couple $$ and you can find cute and fun prints too! The foam board is where the poster boards are located
Hi Alysa! Great video. Thank you for doing your diy project. I love the simplicity of your system. When you mentioned the different boxes/ patterns - "flowers" I started singing the Milly Cyrus song. 😅 I wish I'd done this method vs going Gung ho buying those big trading card boxes off Amazon - they take up to much room. I may have to rethink my whole process now. I'm interested in that Etsy link for the divider option - I will look in your description to see if it is posted.😊
Thanks!! I actually looked into the trading card boxes before buying these again and I thought they looked too big. Super happy with how these turned out! I forgot to post the link I will do that now :)
now I find this idea after spending $$$ on other storage items 🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for this idea. I am sure I will be doing this in the future to save more money that I can use on DP's lol
I created my storage drill box system sometime last year after watching someone's else video. Very happy with my system except one thing. Decided to watch yours to see if you did anything different than the other person's video that might help me. How to make it, it's pretty much the same so no surprise there. What I was looking for more is how you organize your drills in the box. Do you store yours in DMC numerical in order or by colour sections in DMC numerical order? For me, I did DMC numerical in order and it worked great. But then, my last DP that I did to make the colour changes, then the system doesn't work for me because I couldn't find certain colours I was looking for & had to look in the DMC chart to find the colours I was looking for and then check in the box to see if I have it or not to compare, etc. I knew something needs to be changed such as maybe go by colour sections in DMC numerical order instead of DMC numerical in order. I haven't made up my mind yet if I will change the system or not. But what I find very helpful in this video is to provide us the ETSY link to check out the DMC card dividers. Maybe I will find something there that will interest me to give it a try with or without changing the system. So thank you!
Hey Leah! I am a simple person. I simply organize them by colour. I have a box for round and one for squares. I then have dividers based on colour - green, purple, pink, etc. When I choose my special drills - for example green - I pull out my greens and try and match the colour as close as possible. So I dont really look at the DMC number at all. Hope that makes sense?
Great idea. I’m going to need something for storing my special diamonds. I will have to look for my daughters craft foam, so I don’t need to buy anything.

@@thediamondstitcher Yes, it does make sense. Thanks.

I spent yesterday finishing organizing them. Super happy how they turned out!
I laminate my dividers
Smart!!
