BEAD STORAGE = FTW


FLOCK!!

No, I'm not cussing. I'm talking about flock, man.
No not that wacky broswer.
I mean the crap you glue to your bases.

I don't know about you, but right next to that mason jar full of marbles that I keep under my bed, I have a frickin' huge box full of boxes, bottles, and containers of flock.
I have straight flock, naked flock, mixed flock, and magic flock.
I have flock with sand, flock with rocks, and flock with sea shells.
I have so many kinds of flock that's flocking madness.

I have a little secret to pass 0n. Craft containers intended for beads make excellent storage for flock. The picture above is the best product I have found thus far. I bought mine at JoAnn Fabrics. It was $9.00 but I ninja'd it with a coupon for 40% off.

The large box is made of high impact plastic. It doesn't snap on or anything, but it works well enough as a holder for the small round containers. Each small container (or what I call a "bin") is slightly larger than the size of a small WARMACHINE base. The bins have twist off lids. Simply add your favorite blend of flock into the bin, twist the lid, and you have a tidy collection of different kinds of flock.
