This is genius. Now if I could figure out how to maybe cut a different area so that I could hang them on the wall or from my curtain rod that has other craft organization hanging from it.

@Kelly: Maybe you could cut a hole in the top (er, I guess it would be the bottom?) of the container big enough to put a hook in so that it would work with your curtain rod?

This is a very cool idea I use them to load up my color pens , pencils to Carrie them from my supply room to project table
thanks
