I don't know if this was mentioned before in another thread or not, but I was just up at Hobby Lobby and I was flipping through a scrapbooking magazine (I forgot what the magazine was called) when I came across some organizing tips. I saw in a picture one of our tool turn abouts as an organizer for scrapbooking tools, scissors, etc. Now I guess it could have been another brand, but this looked exactly like PC's. I just thought I'd share this with everyone. You can mention it at your shows or if you know people who are big into scrapbooking. Might be a good way to increase sales! :D
 
The Tool-Turn-About is also good for picnicing or tailgaiting. It holds forks, knives, spoons, straws, etc. It is easy to put inside a picnic basket or whatever for transporting.
 
also good for husband's workshop as he can put his hammers and screwdrivers and such in it!
 
I have one by the telephone with pencils, pens, crayons, scissors, markers, glue, and other items for kids' crafts and for taking phone messages.
 
Great for teachers, too!I am an elementary school teacher. I use one on my desk for all of my goodies. They are great for "centers", too. The kids have all of their scissors, pencils, crayons etc. right on their table and can twirl it around to find what they need next.
 
they can also be used in the bathroom, if you have a large enough counter, to hold toothpaste, toothbrush, makeup stuff, q-tips.

also works great for daycares or in the nursey, can use it for all the little baby stuff, like desitin, etc....

Quilting ClassesI took mine along to a quilting class to hold my scissors, 6" ruler, thread clippers, rotary cutter, etc. Worked great. Even the teacher commented on how well it worked.
