A while back Kyrstyna posted some photos of her HF finds.
Last weekend I went to the NEW HF store that opened up
about 4 miles from (not going to be a good thing LOL). I
found MANY things that I can/will be using in my quilting,
sewing, and crafts.
This first photo are 2 sizes of suction cups, a 10' measuring tape
with a carabiner clip, and 10-1/2" hemostats (they also had 12" hemostats).
The larger suction cup is 4-1/2" cost was 4.99, on sale for 2.99, the 2-1/4"
was 2.99 not on sale.
I was going to buy one of the purple "quilting" suction cup but I didn't
want to pay the $15 for the small round (like the red in photo).

Since I got into working with the KAM snaps (basically the same thing
as the Babyville Boutique snaps) I was wanting to get some of the multi
compartment storage bins HF had them for $3.99.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]487796[/ATTACH]
Got this 33 piece deluxe hobby knife set because I am ALWAYS
misplacing my single hobby knives. Maybe if I have them in a
case like this I won't loose them quite so easy (I hope at least).
[ATTACH=CONFIG]487797[/ATTACH]
Also got some other cool things like large clamps, and mini folding
knife with extra blades.
I keep one of those mini knives in my purse for when I need to get
something cut, and I also keep one in my desk at work for when I
am in the warehouse at work.

I bought some of the carpet cutter blades 45 mm from Harbor Freight quite some time ago and they worked wonderfully, but I bought some more the other day, and they won't cut at all. I finally had to give up and go to Jo-Ann's and buy one there.

Here is something cool from HF. I am trying to sort all sorts of tiny things and label them so I can see quickly where items are that I want to use without hunting. There are 40 little compartments with a large one at the very bottom. Seems I am a visual person.
This storage bins were about $15.

I ALMOST bought 2 of those storage drawer cabinets, but I KNEW that
if I got one of those right now & I used it for my KAM snaps that it would
only be a short amount of time that it got knocked over and spilled all the
snaps and other small items I had.
But I DO intend to get them just not until I can get my rooms cleaned
and organized enough to figure out the BEST wall space to hang them
on.
