Bead Storage - Craft Room Ideas

I am still drooling over this bead storage from Sew Many Ways Blog; check out the most awesome craft room!  I am hoping to get my new craft room more organized. I started with my own version of this magnetic board for beads; I just got a simple cheap ready made board. Little condiment containers that have magnets glued on the back are so handy!   

My magnetic bead storage board; I keep a lot of my findings handy here.

Old spice jars are used for my more colorful beads.

On my bench I have an assortment of crystal and glass dishes and bowls I got super cheap at the Goodwill.

This is a fabric covered board from My Girlish Whims Blog.

Here is a hanging magnetic bead storage/spice rack tutorial I did a while back.

Super cool "Elvis" magnetic bead board from The Ornament Girl's Blog.  Maybe eventually I will replace my plastic containers with these nice metal ones!

I am going to keep my eye out for something like this from Perpetualplum's Blog on my next trip to the Goodwill!

This corner of my craft room is a little more organized now!

The closet is next!

DIY Hanging Magnetic Spice Rack/Storage

Simple DIY Hanging Magnetic Spice Rack or Bead Storage

Materials:

1) 1-2 magnetic knife racks; one rack holds about 8 jars. I got mine from Ikea
2) Spice jars, I see them at Bed Bath & Beyond, at my market in the spice section or at The Container Store
3) 8-16 metal 1 1/4" washers
4) 2-part epoxy
5) course sandpaper

First you want to take some course sandpaper and rough up the the center part of the plastic lids and also one side of the washers to help the glue stick. Mix up enough epoxy and spread a generous portion on the lid and place the washer on top. Set aside for at least a couple hours, preferably overnight before using.

Mount your knife racks under a shelf or cabinet according to the directions, arrange your spice jars and there you have it, a simple magnetic hanging spice rack!
