Craft Hint for the Month

Organizing Your Paint - For crafters who use standard 4 oz. paint bottles you can make a small storage bin by inserting 2 equally sized mesh squares with 1 1/2" openings in the middle of a open wooden frame of 1 x 4 wood. You can then place each of your paint bottles in one of the openings and have easy access to them.
