We are snowed in (anticipating 10-20 inches by this time tomorrow!) so I am cleaning out the craft closet. How do you store pipe cleaners (or the more pc "chenille stems")? I'm putting everything in cute clear stacking boxes. The cleaners are too long for the shoebox size but they really don't need a BIG box. Something long and shallow?

what about in a pencil holder or such? and set them upright instead of laying down? or do they need to be in something?

We have a shoe hanger over the back of the laundry room door and I store small craft things in there...pipecleaners live in a pocket.

can you play around with adapting something from the inside cardboard roll from paper towels or t.p. (depending on the length you need)?

Peace,

I'm late with a reply, but I have been thinking about this and had this idea today. What about one of those pasta storage things like Tupperware makes? I'm sure they're made by other companies, and you could probably pick one up at the thrift store (where I do most of my shopping ).

Hope this helps. I'm in the process of reorganizing my school things too.
