Transparent, stacking Craft storage box

(15 x 15 x 3cm per layer)

Ideal for storing or transporting six of your favourite fibres in each layer (Up to 10g per section), buttons, beads or tools.

Choose from the options available to build your perfect Craft Box tower.

Buy the box as a Single, Double or Triple layer; with a convenient Carry-handle lid, to keep everything clean and dry. 

Each layer has removable dividers, so you can reconfigure it to provide up to six compartments, to suit your needs... 

The transparent plastic construction means you can see exactly where everything is, even before you open it up...

If you want more space, just by an additional layer or two, without lid to clip into the tower, to make a stack of 4, 5, 6 or more. 

For ultimate flexibility, additional lids are available, allowing you to split the trays into two or more groups.

We can supply a range of good quality Needles and tools to make your craft easier, just add wht you need from the drop down list.

We offer a high quality Needle Felting pad made from environmentally-friendly, 100%-wool fibre felt.  The pad alone will fit one of your existing trays perfectly, or you can buy one in it's own add-on tray, keeping space for your fibres...

What's a Lock?

Locks or Long Curls are sections of wool that tend to stay together when shorn from the sheep, around 10cm (4") long. 

Locks are ideal for adding texture to a woven or felted project and are often used to produce: fairy hair, unicorn or animal manes, gnome or Santa beards.  Locks can also be Lock-spun to produce highly textured yarns.

All of our Needle Felting fleeces are 100% usable, hand-washed, air-dried and Artisan dyed on-site in small batches using vinegar mordant dyes.*

If colour is important for your project:

We dye both strong solid colours, as well as pleasing subtle pastels and natural marls. 

• Because each dye lot, batch and fleece is different, please ensure that you purchase enough to complete your project. Batch Colours may vary.
• Please contact us if you have the need for a specific colour, we can Dye-to Order.  Simply quote the PANTONE that you need and we'll do the rest...

*We only use Acetic acid (Vinegar mordant) dyes.  These are guaranteed to be colour-fast and completely free of harmful substances, both for the Environment and wearer.  So called 'Natural' dyes, while they use plant extracts to obtain the colour, to obtain a colour-fast result one usually needs to use some fairly nasty [Aluminium, Tin, Iron, Copper, Chromium metal] mordants, or live with a dye that quickly fades or changes colour when exposed to light.  Personally, we prefer a safe 'manufactured' dye that only needs vinegar to fix.  

We ship World-wide...
