Storing & Organizing Seed Beads

Seed beads are addictive little beads that can be a challenge to store and organize. Choose a system that will save you time and space. Bead Storage Solutions® is a modular, stacking system. The trays have transparent lids and containers so you can see what you have at a glance and spend less time searching and more time crafting.



The Bead Storage Solutions® Tiny Tray has 78 tiny containers that each hold 15 grams of 11/0 seed beads. This squeezes an amazing amount of seed beads into a very compact footprint. Plus, it's easy to move from your storage closet to your worktable without a lot of hassle.



If you have large quantities of seed beads or other shapes like Tila Beads or long Magatamas, you will need larger containers. The Bead Storage Solutions® Assorted Tray comes with a variety of sizes of containers so you can choose the right-sized containers for your beads.

The clear plastic containers make it easy to see your beads and findings inside the trays. You can arrange the containers next to each other to experiment with different color palettes. The lids flip open but they're also completely removable so you can use them to scoop up beads off your bead mat.

Each tray comes with adhesive labels that you can use to keep track of you beading stash. The labels have a place for marking the product number, price and other sourcing information. If you are keeping track of inventory, it's a good idea to fill out all the labels and make a copy of the sheet so you can keep it on file.



The Bead Storage Solutions® Tool & Spool Caddy has a removable pliers/scissors caddy, a removable thread/wire spool caddy and a long bin that's perfect for storing small looms or other beadwork supplies.
