To the people that buy the actual boxes of beads: What do you do with the box after?

513b55c6de216_kao_happy.gifHi! Sooo, I've been wondering this for awhile, and I've only thought of one main thing to do with the boxes- I'm planning on getting one of those bead boxes where they're already sorted that you can find at Walmart or other similar places, and I'm curious. What do you guys do with the box after? My main plan is to try these beads out, eventually use them all, and use the box to store other beads that I buy that come in those mixed bags. But, what would you guys use it for? 513b55c721dfa_kao_confused.gif

Jewelry findings and big singular beads. Also there's some old Re-Ment in there that I need to sort out.

I also accidentally step on a lot of them. shrug

@rainbow_nerdz: to be clear, I was joking about using the tubs for this purpose. But I do also have a small scab collection in a little tin. Some of them date back to 2012. They are all very small apart from one slightly larger one which I ripped off of someone else.

sometimes I cut pieces of it out and paint them, and sometimes after I put them on my wall or on Kandi (like bracelets, necklaces, chains, etc)
