Heyhey,
you all voted posts to the top about how I organize my sewing things.
starting with the board with those 5 boxes. First up: the yellow box. This is how I organize my buttons.
I bought this box in a crafts store, its supposed to organize screws, bolts and nails. If you are with me quite some time you might remember I used to have my threads in that box, but they had to move to a bigger place.
I organized them by colors, because that works best for me. The right upper corner are the kids buttons, those aren’t organized by color, just by theme.
Well this is how I keep my buttons in order, I hope this was helpful for you.
keep sewing and smiling

I might have to steal your idea! My buttons were a jumbled mess, then I had some helpers sort them by color into zip lock sandwich sized bags, according to color. Your system looks more user friendly! Thanks for sharing
you are very welcome, I am glad I could help
Love how you used your organizations skills for the buttons, right now mine are all loose in a jar, and while the jar looks pretty, you have to pour them out and sort through them to find what you need. Great idea.
thank you! I used to have them all in one box, but I got frustrated always digging through all the buttons to find the right one…
