I just bought two of those at walmart for my sewing stuff. Can't beat the price the smaller one was 49 cents and the larger was 99 cents. I plan on putting my presser feet and pieces for my sewing machine in the small one (I don't like the storage in the base that pulls out, too messy)
The larger pencil box will become a small sewing kit within a kit of my guild sewing supplies. Rotary cutters and all.
I also pack my cosmetics and small shampoo/conditioner and hair stuff in one larger one when I go on trips. I keeps things from getting crushed and oozing out. :-)
Now I know another use for these great little cheapies. Thanks!
