Organizing Silk Flowers

How do I keep craft items organized? I have extra silk flowers from other projects that are just laying around and nowhere to put them. I tried keeping them in empty coffee cans but I keep adding more to the cans.

Try just tying them in bundles with string, leaving a loops for hanging and hang with tacks or small brads from the ceiling. Just be sure they hang low enough to reach them! If you have a worry about dust collection, enclose in a brown paper bag then wrap string around the neck, closing it then hang. This is a traditional way to hang flowers for drying, but why not store silks this way?

RE: Organizing Silk Flowers

I purchased a large plastic box from Walmart with a lid. When I'm through with an arrangement of silk flowers I shake the dust off them and store them in the box until the next time. This keeps them clean and I also save on buying new flowers for each season of the year. I have saved a variety of flowers for several years so I just pick what I need and make a new arrangement for current use.

Pringles chip cans linked together work good.
