Re-use, Recycle...Storage!

In the spirit of today's Daily Creative Challenge for National Scrapbook Month, I thought I'd share some fun re-use/recycle storage ideas I've come across. As I may have mentioned before, I'm loving addicted to Pinterest, so I get loads of ideas from there.

With "upcycling" in mind, here are some awesome storage options from re-purposed materials...

The first, is a divided lazy susan tray. How handy would that be on your work table?

Antique Mason jars are all the rage right now. Why not combine a large jar with some vintage clothes pins for pretty ribbon/fiber storage?

Storing all those tiny bits and bobs, like mini brads and eyelets can be a headache. Did I say headache? What about using an old pill box for storage? Problem solved!

Cupcake stands also seem to be pretty popular, but let's face it, how often are you gonna use it? Instead of storing yours away, put it to work storing your craft supplies. Just add some cute little bowls and you're in business!
