Needle storage
I have an unusual problem. I've started HAED. Which made me to buy many needles. Also, I have different sizes (24,26 and 28). So, I have a question: how to storage needles without destroying them? I tried something like pin cushion, but my needles started to look funny (and useless to stitch).Any good ideas? :D
these are great ideas, thank you for sharing, i put mine in small plastic bags but got sick of stabbing my fingers when trying to pull them out of storage static/image/common/user_online.gif cutiepie static/image/common/clock.gif 2015-9-19 20:48

smart idea! love these ideas thanks for sharing. I'm the old school red tomato pin cushion kind of gal. and I only use the size 28 as well. :) Prescription bottles also are useful. Just make sure to make the size on the outside with a sharpie I usually keep mine in a small plastic bag!So these are really useful ideas! Thank you for this question. I have the same issue with storing needles. I use magnetic tape in a little container to keep them in one spot :) Я храню иглы в жестяныхкоробках с магнитом. Thanks for the question - magnets seems to be the answer :) ¡Muchas gracias! I leave mine in the original packaging until I need one.If I have extras I stick them in packing foam from electronic purchases.I cut the foam down to size, it's heavy enough to stand and they are within arms reach.I too use varying sizes, the larger sizes I use as marking pins for the ends of blocks orwhere I am to go after the stitch I'm currently working is completed.I only use 28's to stitch with, but the others are great to hold floss and mark areas. Useful trick!!! Thanks you! I keep my needles just here:
It was a friend's present. It's very usefull.
Good luck! I put mine on a magnet and keep them in a small spice jar I use different coloured magnet holders. I also have a small tin (with Dave the minion on it) that use to containcandies that I popped a magnet in it and some needles. Tic Tac candy boxes :)
