    I used one of these for years to organize sewing stuff, then when DH built me a cabinet, I put all the little drawers
    from it into a big shallow drawer to keep somewhat organized.

    I have one smaller than this, with wider drawers for thread! they are great for bobbins, specialty threads, etc.

    I agree - these are great for holding small stuff ....I keep my sewing machine tools, rotary blades, extra bobbins, fancy or novelty buttons, machine needles etc etc in it. Love it!

    I've used smaller ones but really like the number of drawers on this one. Never thought about using them for jewelry though but it sounds like a good idea.

    I found one at a yard sale and another in a swap group. The one at the yard sale was like $1.00

    I had two of those for special lego parts when DS were young. Now where are those units?

    DH gave me one of the 60 drawer units from Lowes for my birthday a few years ago. One of his best ideas yet. It sits right beside my sewing machine filled with buttons, snaps, elastic, machine feet, all sorts of things. Keep thinking someday I might even label the drawers so it's even easier to find stuff.
