Default Can you buy these Aurifil thread boxes (just the box) anywhere?

I bought this set of Aurifil threads a few weeks ago: http://greenfairyquilts.com/catalog.php?item=4462

I love the box. It perfectly, compactly hold the Aurifil medium spools. I know there are other thread boxes / storage methods out there but this one is so compact. I have searched and can't seem to find just the box available for purchase. Anyone know about this?

Now I really wish I had bought my previous Aurifil thread spools (I have 12 others in my drawer) as a boxed set just for the really cool box.

I put my Aurifil thread in empty Crystal Light containers. Each container holds 4 spools. After you take the label off it is clear enough to see what thread you have in there. They keep the thread clean and dry.

I just bought this same one on https://www.massdrop.com/ for 79.99. (free shipping) there was another one too. It is a perfect storage box.

You can find two sided clear storage containers at joann fabric. They have a handle on one end and are great to take to classes or retreats. If you catch at half price they are then only about ten dollars.

You both found some good deal on Aurifil threads -- the containers are very nice too!
