I also have a lovely wooden box that folds out with a handle on top. I used to try to keep useful things in it, before I realised it was futile cause I couldn't open it on a table without moving things out of the way (and my table is always in chaos). Now it's my button box and buttons are an ~occasion~ anyway
Also: Labels!! In my studio I write them on cute washi tape even though my partner owns a label maker, cause I can colour code and they look nicer imo. On fabric boxes i just fold a piece of card so that it hangs over the edge and write on that
Great ideas! I think I would just ignore the labels even if I made them 🙃 it's already better for me to be able to see most of my fabric at once rather than tucked away in tubs and bags. Whatever system works, right?!
New follower! Enjoying your company😊
Thank you!!!

That's so true! I think I need to rearrange what I keep in it. Mostly I just have random notions in mine and keep my high use items in my tray.
