Bead Storage Solutions Elizabeth Ward Assorted Glass and Clay Bead Tray

I'd ordered the 45 piece one but realized once I got it I still needed more storage. So I ordered this set and once again am quite pleased! I also didn't realize before but one side of each small container is rounded at the bottom, presumably for easier content removal. It's still a little tricky because the latch is kind of in the way, but it's a nice touch. Also, the latches seem quite secure—sometimes even difficult for me to open. So I'm not worried about them opening randomly. Would recommend!

First impressions are great! The storage looks really nice, and big enough to fit plenty of my beading supplies! The findings it came with are about what I expected—a few are bent due to the angle they're at inside the little boxes, but considering it was only a few extra dollars to get the findings (compared to getting just the the empty storage), the huge number of findings you get, and the remaining number which are not bent, I don't consider this to be a problem. The latches on the little boxes were a little tricky to open at first, but once I did it a few times, it became easier. The notches on each side of the little boxes are quite helpful when it comes to getting the small boxes out of the larger storage container. Without the notches, I imagine removing the boxes would be pretty difficult. It also came with a sheet of (purportedly) removable labels, which I didn't realize, so that is fantastic! The hinges of the lids (which are essentially just a portion of thinner, somewhat flexible plastic connecting the fixed side of the lid to the opening side) I am a tad concerned about wearing out over time, especially since I do like my lids to be open at 90 degrees or more for easiest access. But I can't know until I have used them for a while. Overall, I am quite pleased! I would recommend. It's a nice storage set and comes with a lot of findings.
