Let's Talk Storage

[@agtpaper]

I like the tic tac containers because they hold about 800 square drills, they take up very little space on my desk, and it's really easy to shake out only one or two drills if you're working on a heavy confetti area.

[@cindybriden372]

Mrs. Coffee, you never disappoint. Thank you so much for this video and all your videos!! So informative and helpful!

[@Cals-All-Crafts]

Thanks for showing all the different storage containers, I think i must be the only one that only uses plastic baggies still lol tfs hugs Cal x

[@sf8247]

I love the tic tac containers. I got them from Amazon with a bunch of tools and they work great for me.

[@username._copied123]

Same, I love my tic tac organizer. It is truly amazing. It makes your life 110 times more manageable. 💯❣️🖌️💎🙏

[@lindak7193]

Thanks for long time storage. Love your tutorial! Take care and be safe!!!

[@horseygirl645]

Your video on storage containers came at s great time for me. I’ve been looking at different types so your comments about them are greatly appreciated. Thanks for all that you do.

[@shannie360]

Tic tac containers for long term,and craftmates for my everyday use.I enjoy your vids and your energy 😊

[@MrsCoffee1]

Thanks ☺

[@toriandtilly]

My favorite is the black and purple case with the handle. I dont have a crafting area or anything. I use a laptop desk on my bed to diamond paint so having something that zips closed and can also store my accessories in that pocket is essential!

[@Doveofserenity]

What I started out with, and still use for large amounts of drills is my recycled medicine bottles, with screw on lids. I have seen a lot of people using that method also.

[@MrsCoffee1]

I don't take medications 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@Doveofserenity]

@@MrsCoffee1 Congrats on that. With epilepsy, I have to; or would be doa.

[@barbarasd1196]

I have a load of medicine bottles. Never thought of using them for drills. These would work great with colors you have a lot of like 310. Thanks for this suggestion. Barbara.

[@Petertronic]

I have used the tic tac ones for 8 dp's so far and get on with them fine. I am upgrading to the bigger ones now I have got a large canvas with 60+ colours

[@kajnlady1873]

Those are great that you bought from Ali Express. The problem is that the separate containers don't stay closed after a few weeks of use.

[@christineb.2437]

Hi Mrs. Crotchet and Coffee, i have the purple zipper one which I like but I went and purchased the Harbor Freight containers and I like those as well for smaller projects. I haven’t tried using HF storage containers for bigger kits yet.

[@ourcreativebeehive]

I use the Harbor Freight boxes for so many different storage items. From Pill organization for a medically involved child to now diamonds. My medical child has started diamond painting because well it relaxes her.

[@sherriharry5505]

So great to see you again ❤❤❤❤

[@collettemendenhall8058]

Great info as always. I use the photo boxes for my long term storage and the tic tac boxes for storage of my leftover SS diamonds. I have HF containers, Darice, and lockables for kitting up different projects. Tfs, til next time!!!

[@kenabanks9156]

I wished I had seen this stuff before I started my diamond journey lol. But now I know better thank you so much for this video

[@Crafty_Susie]

Storage is my fav accessory when it comes to diamond painting 😍 I love the idea of keeping special drills or left over drills in the storage containers I don't have Harbor Freight but I like what I see.

[@ericamills841]

I love the zip up case. I use it on larger paintings. I'm using it now on the tree of life by diamond art club. It works for me.

[@Beneezy79]

What size are you doing?

[@healinggamer]

Great video! I am only on my second diamond painting, so I am using the "baggies in a shoebox" method. I have my current project's drills in one of the boxes with the tubes from Diamond Art Club. I have the 60 tube container that zips up on my wish list.

[@michaeljones4380]

Darice all the way! I use them for both long term storage and current project simultaneously. Love you, Mrs. Coffee!!

[@lorrainestanhope8859]

I really like the Tic Tac storage type containers. the flip top containers don't hold shut after using .

[@judis.1810]

Hi Mrs Coffee. Last weekend I decided to change up my storage system for the Round and the Square drills/resins. I went from using tiny little plastic jars I bought at Dollar Tree to using 2x2" zip lock bags. I have 2 big plastic totes to put them in now. I placed each set of numbers: 105-169; 208-225; 300-372; 400-498; 500-598; 600-699; 700-799; 800-899; 900-999; 3011-3078; 3325-3372; 3607-3689; 3705-3799; 3801-3866 in separate quart size zip lock bags. And I did that with both the Round and the Square drills/resins. It was time consuming but atleast I have everything in one spot. God Bless you and your family and your 2 pups, too! Love to all, Judi

[@noellabaird4607]

Thank you so much for all your videos Mrs. Coffee! I love your videos. I have the first kit with the connecting cases, Harbor Freight, the black case set, Darice and I just got the Lockables. The Darice containers are easy to open if you put your thumbnail just under the lip of the clasp that closes the snap and then it is very easy to open. My favorite ones to use are the Darice and Harbor Freight.

[@deekelly5415]

I use the small rectangular plastic boxes from dollar tree. They come in packs of ten. I store them in a 2.25 liter zip lock plastic container. 2 for $1.99 at Walmart. They fit in there perfectly. Can't beat the price and for me they work great.

[@impmulcahy2844]

Mrs. Coffee! I love your channel. I don't, currently, use any of the storage systems you showed, but I think I would like the Harbor Freight for kitting up my projects, and there's a Harbor Frieght walking distance from my house. What I use for long-term storage are these little containers from the $Tree. They come 10 to a pack, in round or square. They can hold a huge amount of drills. I put my round drills in the round containers & my square drills in the, you guessed it, square containers. I store them in an underbed storage box along with my "kits in waiting" or KIW. When I need more for new colors, I grab a buck & hop on my bike & head to the $Tree. It's cheep & easily expandable. Thanks for this video, you gave me some good ideas. Light & love to you and yours.

[@cathyk.4176]

I love the tic tac containers Michaels has.

[@carolinemcleod4554]

I use the tic tac ones when doing my diamonds and the coloured ones for putting the diamonds that are left over,

[@pinkystickers3680]

I love my tic tac boxes! They look small, but can actually fit a lot in them (1400 round drills, haven't counted the square ones, but I assume is roughly the same amount) and I use them as my long term storage. And I have a small plastic shoe box where I keep all my unopened bags. I don't have a system in the shoe box, but I do keep an excel spreadsheet where I keep count on how many bags of each color I have.

[@pinkystickers3680]

You can check out my tic tac box unboxing video where I test out how many drills fit in there, if you don't believe me :D

[@MrsCoffee1]

I believe you... I also am going to put that on my watch later list so I have something to watch tomorrow, it's 2am i should be in bed

[@rebeccapowell9944]

Hi! I use both the Darice and the tic tac boxes all the time. I love the variety of sizes the Darice storage gives you for my current projects. However, the xsmall containers hold way more than 200. I can fit close to 1 000 diamonds each. The tic tac boxes look really tiny, but each holds 1,000 diamonds, as well. I use those for long term storage. I appreciated seeing what other storage options are out there. Thank you for sharing

[@irenerodriguez7885]

I love the Harbor Freight storage containers

[@kathybradley8315]

I don't care for my Lockables I purchased - they are just a pain to get in and out of. And, the Darice storage system was just awkward and takes up my space I work around. I purchased a ton of the Harbor Freight containers - they are easiest to work with in the individual little snap boxes. And, when I'm not using them, they simply stack on top of each other. Thanks, Mrs. Coffee, great video!

[@moonstarlegacy8955]

I like the first one you showed to keep my diamonds in when I’m done I just put them in plastic bags

[@elizabethhulcher]

I've used the the stackable when I did Native American bead work on a loom. Brings back memories.

[@elizabethhulcher]

I currently use snap top paint/bead containers from Dollor Tree. The large one comes in a pack of 6 and holds about 2000 diamonds. The small one comes in a set of 8 and holds about 1000 diamonds. I also bought round labels from Dollar tree and will add a dot below the # if round diamonds. The labels are easy to remove. And once kitted, I put in a small decorated box that I can drop in a tool bax with all my tools and "snack" size dps. Extra drills go into a labeled ziploc bag, then into a separate box on my bookshelf.

[@judymcintire7095]

I keep mine in baggies 2x2” in a box that I divided with foam core and index cards. The box is larger with a magnetic lid closure. Easy and decorative. TFS

[@HeatherHart1969]

I have and use most of the ones you show except for darice. I started with dollar tree containers, 6 or 8 for $1 in craft section, not the food storage ones that are bigger. I now use them for my permanent storage.

[@makeupstarlettexo]

Since I am brand new i did try and invest in some of these. I have the lockables as well as the rainbow color ones.

[@noraidalauro7339]

I use Darice for long term storage with DMC numbers. I am setting up the photo boxes for drills I don’t have DMC #’s for and dont feel like trying to match and one box for DAC drills. I use the one you have in purple with 60 bottles for current projects. I have the cases in 30 & 60 bottle. I use Harbor Freight as well for small projects. I also keep some on hand to gift to friends & family that start diamond painting. I a variety of storage. The only ones I don’t have are the stackable. Enjoyed watching this video. Thanks!

[@islandgirlcraftingjournal9076]

Good talk about drill storage! I do the shoe box and baggies for spare drills. Living in a remote area like i do, i hold on to all my spare drills and that option is cost and space effective. I was recently inspired by a birthday present of some plastic containers that were 2.5 x 2 x 1.25 inches in dimensions to create my own working drill storage for projects. I made the housing and shelves for 50 containers out of materials from around the house. It's a vertical storage so it takes up just a few inches of space on my work table. The entire thing cost me $11. The containers can hold 20K drills each. As much as i am tempted to get Harbor Freight and Darice (i might get the itchy fingers and get them anyway...) i adore my custom storage.

[@Beccas1963]

Great information! I went to get the Harbor Freight ones but they were out. I might need to order. I use the lockables for my bigger projects and those smaller ones that are hooked together for smaller projects. Still using the shoebox and index card for long time storage. But am always on the look out for ideas.

[@teresajparker3876]

I use the fat jars from Walmart. I kit up in them. I label them with the DMC number and the symbol. I put my jars in a Keurig carousel that I modified, while diamond painting. When I finish the painting I remove them from the carousel, remove the symbol from the jar and place the jars in numerical order in stackable plastic drawers. I combine the ones with the same DMC number if the colors match, or file them next to the ones of the same number that don’t match. These drawers are stacked up on my desk.

[@Kitkat-mn5ud]

I have all those storage method you listed above except the tray one. I love the lockables but for kitting up to expensive for long term storage. Tic tack storage. It wasnt really good for me for storage or kitting up... not big enough to hold diamond of 1 large pack for not that big of a painting... had to use multiple boxes for one color. The lids would pull out easily on some boxes, but not others. Love the harbor freight containers. Dont think I would want them for long term storage, because I do both rounds and squares. They are bad for drills getting stuck around lid when you open the lid... they fall out on you. Really great for kitting up... but if you have lots of colors like more than 27 you have to use more than one box... but I still love them for kitting up. Ahhh the suitcase one with round jars. Great for if you have a bunch of colors for a project. Wont hold large bags. I got the one for 120 bottles. So I put extra drills in zipper pouch on it. I have one kitted up in it now that has 60 colors. So dont know if I will like the screw off lids or not. Definitely not for long term storage... too expensive for that and dont hold enough. Long term storage but not for kitting up. 2x3 inch 4 mill ziplock baggies with index cards in a shoe box. Rachael Rae used this method and I like it. Heres why... I have 4 shoe boxes and bought 1000 bags. The 4 mill. bags will stand up easily verses the thinner bags you get with your kits. I have drills from several different companies which I want to keep separate. I have both squares and rounds... so this method makes the most sense for me.

[@Asmo1128]

I really like the tic tac containers

[@rebeccaramey7077]

I have the tic tac containers, they ok but you need more than 447 because there is round and square, I am more interested in the harbor freight for long term. I love my case that has the round bottles for kitting up no matter how big my project is. When I put the labels on them I put a small dot if I have extras, all my extras are in zip lock bags and labeled. Thank you for the video very Informative. God bless

[@marilynvann1655]

I love your sense of humor enjoy your videos

[@kimpeters8652]

I am like most of us. I have tried several options for storage. I was also thinking of long term but didn't think it through. I started with sauce cups. Didn't like them. My niece uses them when she makes slime. Then I used the small 1 x 2 zip bags, I still use those but only for leftovers. I also tried the Harbor Freight one. I gave those to my niece. I do have several of the tic tac containers. I use those for the leftovers of special-shaped drills/rhinestones. I saw on someone's channel the stackable round ones in different sizes. Love those for kitting up. They come in 3 different sizes. You get one stack of each size. I always bought double of those. They're not very expensive. I have 6 sets of those because they do brake as you said. I'm sticking with those. Then for long term I do what Ella does with zip bags with index cards, in a big plastic container with lid.

[@dbaker8011]

Harbor freight containers are my go to every time. The stackables i use for my loose powder eyeshadow:-) thank you for the great informational video. I have quite a few of these. Lockables is the next i want to try then the black case i would probably end up using for long term storage. I think im gonna use my spare drills for another project maybe :-) ive got things in the works im excited.

[@thesheshedkraftshack9230]

I like a lot of the storage systems that you have. For kitting up my diamond art paintings I use the Craft Mate Lockables. Why because I usually get big diamond art paintings an they end up having enough storage left over. I kitted up Que Rico Siren using the Craft Mate Lockables after all the drills were kitted up I had four containers left over. Also, Craft Mate Lockables are easy to store in a bookcase I have six or so large diamond art paintings already kitted up an nicely put away in my bookcase next to my window in my craft room. Then when I Kit Down I like to use the Harbor Freight storage system. For instance they are small enough to fit on a shelf like in a bookcase. They only hold 24 storage containers but their inexpensive only like $4.60 at Harbor Freight. So, that's how I like to Kit Up my diamond art paintings an store my left over drills. Loved your video Mrs. Coffee. Laughs I think I have everyone of the storage systems you showed except for the rainbow one. Have a great day an stay cool oh dont forget to drink a lot of H20!!!

[@toniahunter8503]

I like the zippered case. That is what i am using right now.

[@thesisterssister5451]

I have most of these containers. The next one I intend to buy is the one in the black case. FYI, you can still pick your color on Amazon. So far, my favorite is the tic tac just because it works well with my favorite tray, which is the white one with the orange gate. I pre-kitted Daughter of Honor and One Worth Melting For, each using a tic tac set plus 1-14 slot lockables ($3.99 at Hobby Lobby)

[@debberssurridge6035]

I use the one with the handles for traveling with a diamond painting; I am currently using the large bottles for my working peices

[@kimmieskreations1969]

I started out using the Darice Containers, but found them hard to open so I just use them for spare drills now. But I love love loveeee the harbor freight tools containers. I don't have to fight with them to get them open, the only thing I have to remember doing that I sometimes forget to do is to tap the backs so that all the drills are in the little boxes .

[@tbarnett8]

My favorite is the lockables. Got them at Michaels with coupon paid $12. Long term storage is plastic ziplocks 2x3 with a blank business card and kept in a photo box. Have tic tax boxes, they hurt my hand to open. Have the 28, they don’t stay closed. Unscrewing any little jar also makes my hands hurt.

[@lovinglanguages1]

Thank you so much for the advice on getting the Harbor freight boxes. I am very new to diamond painting and I really like these particular boxes so much, I followed your advice! I ran right out and bought some! 😆 Problem was, I was only able to find 2, so apparently other diamond painters are doing exactly the same!😆😆

[@kyahrose5261]

Ive used a good number, if not almost all of these at least once for projects. My favorite to use for projects is the lockables; and I also have come to like the harbor freight for projects. Whichever storage I use for a project is often determjned by how many colors I have in that dp. If it only has 20 some odd colors, Im not going to bother with the lockables, if it has closer to 40+ then the lockables is my go to containers. (they hold between 1200-1400 in each compartment). For long term storage, Ive done ziplock baggies that were just thrown into a larger bag separated by seller (EM, DPF, Heartful Diamonds, etc). I looked at using harbor freight for long term because each box held quite a few drills, and they are relatively cheap. However, To me, this system would become bulky over the long run. I wanted my drills to be easy enough to find and see what I had, so I opted to go with using a photo box to essentially file the little baggies of spare drills. This is a bit of work to build and get set up, but I find now that once its established, its a lot easier to dekit projects and store extra drills. The black box (60 bottle) container would be good for something like a HAED project where you have 60+ colors in the kit.

[@mswhittaker231]

My favorite are the CraftMates Lockables in the purple holder. If you use a coupon at a local craft store they can inexpensive too.

[@ElizzaBeast]

I have a bunch of the lockables... You can get just the containers without the binder at Joann's... They also have two different sizes a 2XL and a 3XL

[@chefwolfie9168]

Can I be the little devil on your shoulder and say that there are these containers similar to those of the purple case with the 60 jars but they are slightly larger with metal caps. They are on AliExpress for about $25 and they look GORGEOUS! They have 60 jars, case, and an option of either silver or 'gold' caps which actually look more like a bronze color.

[@MrsCoffee1]

There also on amazon and craftibly. This video is old

[@i.b.n.w.6600]

I prefer the tic tac containers, and I've experienced that they hold more diamonds than you'd think.

[@katpraeuner9794]

for me - longterm is a shoe box, kitting up is harbor freight or the 24 count containers. I have the darice but when you have confetti, it makes your finger tips hurt from opening and closing them. I used them once. Haven't purchased any of the others

[@jademiller5041]

I use the Harbor Fraight to kit up my diamond paintings and I use a binder with the baseball card plastic things. I put the diamonds from each kit in seperate baggies and put all the same colors in a pocket together because not ever kits colors matc. I will also put inventory sheets in the back in one of the full shit holders.

[@LatresasBlingDynasty]

I love my tic tac boxes! I don't open all the bags until I need them, then I'll add to my tic tac box. I also have the 72 zip container (I have 2 of them) that I use for after project drills. I saw your other video about the zip lock baggies, they are sold out or i would've bought some! Try the tic tac, you may love it!

[@karynpackard5554]

I used the tic tac containers from Michaels that had 24 containers in the box. I don’t remember the size of the painting, but I remember that there was a total of 19,200 drills. I had no problem storing all of the drills. Doing the math, each container should be able to hold 800 drills. Not all of my containers were full so it could probably hold a little more than that. I had no problems with the style/functionality either. I just received the smaller version of the first one you showed (like the double rainbow). I’m excited to see if I like it better or not.

[@teresahurst3640]

I use Darice for long time storage. The plastic on the lockable will become a little loser with use. I use this for 50x50. Then the case with jars, I love those those. My jars are taller than yours. Great for travel. I have the habor freight too but I like to use one storage containers. I use the 24 tick tact for just the ABs.

[@pattyalvarez6814]

Harbor freight, 28 and 56 grid storage and 42 and 56 compartment craft mates. I have tic tac containers which are smaller for my seed beads and crystals.

[@heathervona7883]

I have the purple zip up case, but i ordered the smaller bottles (2.5cm tall) by mistake. I can still fit over 1000 square drills in each of those. Don't have any long term storage yet.

[@jessig5040]

Having tried pretty much all of those systems, my favorites are the Lockables and the Darice systems. I feel like the Locables are easier for kitting up and kitting down but the Darice are probably easier to use while you're actually painting. Especially since I noticed a nifty trick from one of Gone Off My Meds's videos where you use a small metal measuring spoon to dip out the diamonds into your tray. :) But I will say that I really like those little bitty 28/56 grid storage containers for kitting down. Cause so far I haven't had a ton of diamonds left over and those small containers are perfect for that. Also, those containers take up no space at all. So really great if you're going to keep your diamonds but don't anticipate having too many leftovers. :)

[@tiffanyblue6894]

I put my extra in little zip lock bags you get in the jewelry section of walmarts and then recycled a carnation coffee creamer can( big ones ) and use that method.

[@Doveofserenity]

My long term storage is something completely different. I use a 3 ringer binder that is 3" wide. Plus baseball card sleeves. It takes two binders and about 45 sleeves in each, to do all the colors. Colors in little baggies, in each card sleeve. With the sleeve numbered with sticker. Label the binder edge with square or round, whichever; and then 1-whatever number. Then same for next but with remaining numbers. Up on the shelf like a book they go.

Great video. I'm a header, my first love, so I have a couple of systems. My most favorite that I use for long time storage are those bolt and screw holding drawers that slide out, it has 60 drawers, I got it at Home Depot, I put my findings in, I have one of those. The next one I have is a similar system has a 4 x 2 drawer and I believe it has 20 drawers, I have 3 of them, and they hold a half kilo or 500 grams of seed beads 11/0. I use the lockables for my silver beads, Bali silver styled, it's the best one for them and I wish I had another one because I have more styles of them because you can never have enough beads. The last one I use are the screw top system I have two sizes and there is another style type. There is the screw top and the slide on type. I like the screw top for its portability and slide on top for working on my desk. I have the small ones and the other size holds double of the small one. I don't have better dimensions because I am not at home right now. Thank you for sharing your organization systems. Have a nice day 🌼🌼🌼

[@EnlightenedFlamingo]

I'm new to DP, but I plan on using my Akro-Mils mountable storage drawers to hold my diamonds long term. I have 4 of them I'm not currently using for anything. Thanks to Stitcherista, I ordered the zip-up black & purple case for current projects. Got it on AliExpress, so I might have to wait a bit longer. Right now I'm using the Darice that just has the smaller containers. It's okay, but I think screwtop will work better on my poor fingers. Thanks for sharing this!

[@jleelee71]

I use a 18 ct egg crate while Working on project. I did at least spray paint it so it wouldn’t be as tacky on my dining room table 🤣. I am a minimalist and would like long term storage that would allow me to store the most with less containers.

I use the Darice for long term and keep the Square and Round separate. I use the harbor freight and the lockables for WIP.

I’m going to try a zip up case next. Great video!

Sorry for spamming 🙈 but the tic tac and 28 grids holds 4-5 small bags off drills. When I kit up a project I don’t put all the drills in containers. I have 1 container (tic tac or 28 grid) for each color and then I refill as needed. I just keep the unopened bags in a large ziplock bag with the name of the painting.

I have the tic tac containers, the black case that holds 60 colors, and I just ordered some Darice cases! I like the black case for kitting up/down projects and I am hoping to use the Darice for long term, because I’d tack containers are not my favorite.

I started out with the zippered container and recently graduated to the Darice containers. I love them, I have a couple sets of the multi-sized ones.
