Surprising Finds in Unexpected Places:

* Bone china plates and dishes on ebay starting at just 99 cents – great for organizing jewelry (see the December issue of Blueprint Magazine)

* To store makeup and other beauty supplies, buy a gorgeous stainless steel Craftsman Roll-Away Tool Caddy or cart. Try www.professionalequipment.com or any hardware store.
