Storage has become the bane of my existence. As much as I love the decorative bins, my craft tools have grown exponentially and I use clear plastic ones. I need the clear ones to see what’s inside. Ikea has clear bins that allow you to place caddies inside. I put my most used tools in the caddies. Best part is that they are very cheap.

I really like the ones from The Container Store. Thanks for posting this.

Aren’t these bins just the bane of your existence? All the pretty ones cost an arm and a leg, and who can justify spending that much on STORAGE? And of course all the affordable ones are usually dog ugly. You found some good ones, though. Great size, too! You’ll have to let us know how they hold up! I’m always dubious when it comes to Ikea…

We bought those ones from Ikea. We bought them in a pretty plum/magenta color. I need a bigger storage bin to store our blankets and quilts. Am loving these ones from CB2 http://www.cb2.com/family.aspx?c=598&f=4077

I like that they have lids. That way if the contents in the cube look a little cluttered (or accidently get that way) no one will know! And you wont have stuff peeking over the top – I have been known to overfill bins! I might have to look into these myself. Thanks for the tip!
