I bought some of those 'shoe box' sized sterlite boxes with tops for my knitting projects. I keep buying yarn and patterns that I cannot get to for years so I store them and label with the project. I have put all of that aside a few weeks ago. There is no time for knitting nor will there be for some time. Guess I really is a winter hobby. But the boxes are great and indeed even there it was 10 for $10. I also used two in the garage, one for string and twine, and one for wire bits. I am always looking for some of one or the other and getting things that have really nice wire wraps that I want to save for use later. Now I have a go to place that is tidy.
It seems like it would be awfully expensive for storing tubers for the home enthusiast though. Especially as you would have to (I cannot label my tubers like Dan or Geof) keep each kind in a separate box. I have tried writing on them but they are too wrinkly or the skin sort of peels. And that is even when they are sort of shriveling. Have not figured that out. I pull after two weeks frost, lightly clean off dirt, and then dry on racks for a few days and shrivel they do. I simply don't know how you do it Dan. Wish I did.
