Using a magnet to corral sewing needles
This hip trick comes to us courtesy of the fabulous ladies behind the Future Craft Collective. Make yourself a handy dandy portable or wall-affixing needle and pin area by grabbing a $2-sheet of adhesive magnet from your local craft shop. Cut out your preferred size and stick it inside any enclosed little case, an old pin box works swell.
Needles and other sharp things that are easy to grab and safe for transport, all thanks to the wondrous powers of magnetism!
