Several years ago when my delica stash began to grow, I thought I had finally found the perfect thing to store in this antique sheet music cabinet that had been given to me. Because the drawers are so thin, I got these flip-top containers. I spent hours making the labels. I wanted to be able to see right away what the delica number was. With the tubes, you have to pick them up and turn them just right to be able to read the number.
The problem?
The lids don’t stay on!! Dropping them is a disaster! The lids pop off and beads go everywhere. The lids come off so easily, but I have hundreds of them! I am going to try the diamond art screw top containers. They won’t fit in the drawer, but I guess I could take the bottom out of every other drawer.
Don’t get these containers!
