Velcro storage
 

Does anyone have a good idea to store velcro? I buy "hanks" at Joann's in different colors and have been keeping it in a ziploc bag, but it doesn't fit well and I am always losing the stupid bag! How do you store it?

How about a short curtain rod? You could hang it on the inside of a closet door and if your Velcro isn't on a roll you could use a cardboard roll from plastic wrap (they're stronger) cut down to the size of the Velcro.

Good idea! I store mine in craft box

one pc is pinned to my work board and all other pcs are stuck to that one... I have several widths and 4 or 5 different colors...

I store mine in a plastic box (about shoe box size). I buy "hanks" as well as pre-packaged, and have a different box for each kind. I have a large peg board up in my sewing room, and use long "pegs" to make shelves to hold these (and other) boxes.

I put both hooks and loop together, roll it, smush it flat and put a ribbon or rubber band around it and store in a small storage box with other fastener items.

Velcro doesn't want to wrap around small tubes for me (it's too stiff) so I wrap it around something much larger (I use my arm like when I coil up an extension cord), then slide it off and tie a strip of fabric around the center so it looks like an 8. I can then hang the top loop over any kind of hook or rod. It's really easy to get at however much you need that way, too.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone!

What a great idea! I always have more of those containers than I need! (and hubby throws NOTHING away that can contain ANYTHING!!) LOL
