This is the best thing since sliced bread...Well, at least for storing small items. I do craft beading and have lots and lots of beads and have purchased over 2 dozen of these boxes and they have not disappointed me in the least. If you have a hard time with those 'flip top' containers then these screw on caps on the little bottles are the thing for you. Now creating jewelry and crafts is a breeze with these clear containers. Everything is organized and ready to go. Thank you for making life a little easier!
These are perfect for storing small cabochons, and hot fix elements, etc. I work with pieces that are 10mm or smaller, so this system allows for me to easily locate the ones I need. I was using the stacking jars, but I was afraid all the turning and moving around to locate the one I wanted was harming the vintage glass and crystal. Plus it was just a pain in the rear to locate what I wanted. With these, there is minimal movement of the jars as you move each tray and scan it. Soooo much easier to just look through the top and locate things. Now, if I could just find a storage drawer the same size, I could store each one in a drawer instead of a stack on a table. I have cats.. and I'm clumsy. Not a good combination/
I've purchased six of these from Amazon, thus far--the price fluctuates wildly, so wait out a high price. I use them for storing Swarovski crystals and elements. 200 4mm bicones easily fit into one container, and I have more of that particular bead than any other. The 24 screw-top jars sit in a plastic tray, and then there is a plastic lid to cover them all. The lid is not secured, though. The trays stack well-enough. I keep them in a long, wide, shallow drawer, so I have them stacked in twos. I can slide them around to view the trays underneath. Unlike some other reviewers, I found the items well-packed, and in pristine shape on arrival. Each set of 24 comes with a film of plastic in the tray underneath the jars, as well as film on the inside of the lid. The whole thing was shrinkwrapped, and then encased in big bubblewrap. Two units came in each box, packed side-by-side, so there is no room for movement. (I see they have this listed with the word, 'kitchen' in parentheses. I'm not sure these are useful in the kitchen--the jars are too small to hold any decent quantity of spices, and I can't think of what else one would use them for, in the kitchen).
So I have completely replaced the body on my DJI Phantom drone, and also replaced a screen on a pad that I have. These all have LOTS of screws. So for a solution I found this. After ordering I simply numbered each compartment with a sharpy. Then I either draw what I am working on, on a sheet of paper, or print out a picture. Then I simply do this.. 1) main body screws 2) mainboard attachment screws 3) etc Then I would draw a line to the area of the picture they belong. Easy peasy and after these two projects I had NO EXTRA SCREWS
My husbands small computer parts used to be jumbled together in a huge mess and often wound up on the floor, but this organizer was absolutely perfect for them and I didn't even have to pester the man to organize them, he did it nearly immediately and with child-like delight! Now if only these containers could organize my life too...
If you are looking for a way to store and organize small items (I use mine for beads, findings, charms, etc) that allows you clear viewing and easy access I recommend you giving these a try. The jars and top cover are amazingly clear, so much so that i have to tap the top of the jar to know if the lid is on You can easily pull out multiple jars compare colors, bead texture and shape and begin your design without ever opening the container. Once choices are made the jars are shallow making the beads easily accessible, no more struggling trying to reach beads in the deeper hinged boxes with the plastic dividers, I bought these to try out, loved them so much, ordered 10 more the very next day. These are well made, no damage in shipping. Give them a try it has breathed fresh excitement into my work.
I have purchased Darice containers for many years now as I was needing a system to place my beads for crafting. Yjere were some beads that needed double the size of the small boxes & these fit the bill! The containers are of a durable plastic, stay sealed extremely well even when dropping (I'm a clutz & will swear to this), of a perfect size for things like pins or items that are longer or any items that won't fit in the smaller containers! I find that I am now buying this size because simply put, they do the job you paid for!!
Yes, as others have remarked, you can find similiar containers at a lower price elsewhere, but the quality of this product makes it outstanding. I am giving sequined felt wall calendars as presents for family members, and this is a great way to store the supplies without concern that the contents will spill out if the box is accidently knocked over. In the past, I have had real disasters when a storage system without screw top lids overturns! The contents are clearly visable and the boxes can be easily stacked for storage.
I use these to put my lipsticks in. I'm a makeup artist and these are the best way to keep my lipsticks all in place and sanitary!! And I can label them, so I can find them easily when on locations!! Also, they have individual lids! So if I don't need all my colors I can pack a lighter bag!!
I live in an apartment and do not have so much space to keep a spice rack and its bottles, but i prefer to use spice while cooking from a single box instead of searching for different bottles when my other spices are already in oil. After searching for some products in market and this product fit the bill and purpose. I am not using the individual bottle caps which came with the product. Size: I would say size is small and 12 small round bottles can store upto 15 table spoons of spice at a time. However i have put regular spices in 2 bottles and spices which are not used regularly to one bottles, my husband loves it and uses it for cooking purposes regularly. Because of small size it is easily picked up during cooking. Product Quality: Even though it is made of plastic, product is well made and easy to use. Packaging & Delivery: I was surprise to get this product delivered within 2 days from USPS. Best Packaging and Delivery!!! Darice products are good, i bought another no spill organizer from darice which i am using as jewelry box. I would recommend this product for anyone.
