I have limited sewing space and need to make good use of every inch. I’ve found a handy way to store buttons, snaps, and other small items in a revolving spice rack. The multiple jars fit neatly into the rack, and I can see what I’m looking for with one quick spin. My pin holder sits right on top for easy access.
