Question Newbie Question…

Post image

So… I finally pulled the trigger and started working on my very first kit… I thought I’d chosen a “doable” size to be my virgin kit, but I was overwhelmed by the tiny drills and the number of colors it came with lol… But anyway, I got over that and finally started. The tiny section on the bottom left is what I’ve accomplished so far.

I wanted to keep things simple accessory-wise, so started with the little ziplock bags… Marking them with codes, trying to draw the symbols as best as I could, etc… But it was taking too much time, so I bought 1 container(?) of 46 colors (I think). But my kit came in 83 colors. My question is - what do you usually do in this case? Is buying another container the only answer? 🥲

😲 Okies I’ll try that! The little bags are so small as is, so not sure how it’s gonna work out, but def worth a try before I buy another 1-2 containers, I think. Thank you!

I hand them in my office/craft storage closet (it's a mess, I know 😨)

thanks for sharing the actual picture, I don’t have a dedicated crafting room so this won’t work for me 😅
