Humans are excellent at using tools in creative ways, often in ways beyond the original design.
Today I was shopping at Publix. I was in the tool section and discovered this little round box:
As you can see from the label, this is a bamboo salt box. It is meant for storing salt. The lid swings open. There is a magnet to hold the lid closed.
Of course, I immediately saw it could serve another purpose — stitch marker storage!
This would be a lovely way to store other small notions. Or it might be handy as a place to put little things that will get lost if left sitting on the table.
