I love storage options that an also be used as decoratative elements...I recently found some unique glass Ball canning jars at Wal-Mart. The are about 4 in' in cir., but only about 2 in' high - so cute and GREAT for dividing my buttons out by color!

Hi Jill,

What a great way to display and store your buttons! Thanks for sharing.

I love metal containers with clear lids (the type used for spices) and use them for storing larger items but I really needed something for smaller brads and eyelets. I discovered smaller containers just like the larger ones in the wedding dept. at Michael's. They come in a round tin or a heart shaped tin with clear lids. Since I love anything with hearts, I purchased the heart ones. There are 30 in a package for $19.99 but I used a coupon so they only cost me about $12.00 for all 30. I had to add the magnetic tape to the back but it was fast and easy and now they're on my wall and I can easily see what's inside each one. Because they aren't so deep, they're also easier to get those tiny brads out of.
