While shopping at Michaels this past week, I came across a wonderful addition to my clay room and the fantastic part is, it was 50% off the original price. (final price $24.99) This small cabinet was going to make my life easier. Knowing an approximate measurement of the polymer clay packages, I had a feeling that they would fit perfectly. I quickly stuck it in my cart and raced over to the clay isle and my instincts were right, they would fit perfectly. Now I was anxious to get home and load it up. Oh, how wonderful it is to have that clay at eye level with each color in it's own designated space.

The cabinet has a glass door, which I will never close, (although you could if you wanted to) I came up with an idea to be able to use that side too. I bought that rubberized Grip Liner (I used black) and hot glued it to the edge of the glass, then with Christmas ornament hangers I hung my gripper and cutting tools. The Grip Liner is thick and able to withstand the pressure of the hanging tools with no problem. The cabinet is built to be hung on the wall, but I am going to set it on my table. I will certainly have easy access to them and a little more organized in my clay room.

Love your new cabinet! Very organized!! You can easily see when you are running low on a color.
I will be putting the finishing touches on my studio this weekend, and am looking forward to posting pics... I will feel more organized then too! :)
I love things that make claying easier and more organized. It's going to be hard for me to resist the temptation of spending even more money at Michaels later today. The cabinet looks great and being able to see the stock at hand and easy access is a real plus! Thanks for sharing.
Love your little cabinet, I have a working drawer in my roll about. Then store my many extras in plastic shoe boxes.
