We recommend having more than one organizer if you’re serious about this craft. You could have one of them for your favorite work, for your most recent work as well as for any unfinished projects.
You can also have storage organizers, where you can keep your materials and different types of diamonds. These are must-have diamond painting tools. Diamond painting beads are some of the more ‘exotic’ crafting supplies and having them safely stored will benefit you in many ways.
Medicine Boxes Are Also Handy To Sort Your Gems.
"I use medicine boxes. Works awesome! I'd be afraid of that getting knocked over and a lid coming off. Trust me dumping the diamonds all over a carpeted floor is NOT fun!"
Free Storage Options
If extra diamond painting tools are not in your budget, or if you are a fan of reducing, reusing, and recycling, there are also plenty of free diamond painting storage options for gems. One of the easiest options is a simple egg carton – it is already divided into twelve, or potentially 24, sections, it is cheap or free, and it is a great way to be sustainable and re-purpose an object that would normally be thrown away. One of the things you will have to watch out for with egg cartons is how tightly you can seal it – if it is a Styrofoam egg carton, it is typically able to be sealed more easily, but cardboard egg cartons often have gaps around their edges where gems could slip out if the carton were to fall. Additionally, some egg cartons come with small holes in the bottom of the different egg slots, so you will want to check and make sure your carton is not perforated before you attempt to store your gems inside.
Repurpose your Pillbox or your Spice jar
Because of its convenience, sturdiness and portability, a Pillbox would be an ideal place for you to store your beads. It also keeps all different colored beads apart and in case the box is shut, it does not mix the contents even if tilted or if it falls. Colors or numbers can be marked on the box itself for ease of use and accessibility
Like a pillbox, a spice jar is also a great idea for storing our sparkling beads. It's a popular and can-be-found item in every family, we bet there's at least one in your kitchen. Don't waste the old ones, because help you keep all the beads separated and available in one place.
Go For Tupperware Containers If You Have Loads Of One Color.
Did you just get a painting with a massive amount of one color? Are you swimming in 310s right now and not sure what to do withy yourself?
Although local retailers in the U.S. are now starting to carry Christmas Diamond Painting Ornaments, many of the seasoned veterans buy theirs from overseas online retailers instead. This includes topdiamondart.com too; I probably buy 95% of mine the same way. Most of the time, you can find a much wider variety, with more competitive pricing.
