These viral hard-sided clear pencil cases from Target started a massive trend in clear storage for small supplies. Compact, convenient containers to tackle organization for little parts and pieces. Can be used at home or in backpacks and tote bags.
In our homeschool math caddy, an Ikea Raskog cart, we have utilized these hard sided cases to divide manipulatives preventing messes inside larger bins. Being able to see exactly what is inside each case and limiting what we work with continues to ease clean up as well.
The problem is that this Target version is only available during back-to-school time making them very difficult to find. The demand for these unique storage items has sky-rocketed due to their versatility. It has taken me years to collect the dozen or so we have in rotation and they are limited to one size.
I love the concept which led me to purchase some different sizes of Bliss Bins from Texas-based small business Maple & Lark.
On a recent trip to Disneyland, we used the extra small and small size Bliss Bins by Maple & Lark. Making packing and going through security a breeze!

Extra small Bliss Bins are perfect purse companions for holding drink packets, medications, lipsticks, makeup or floss.
In the video above, we used the small Bliss Bins for a first aid kit with bandages, antiseptic ointments, and medications. Walking around Disneyland, we were prepared for any blisters or cuts that would cause an upset to our plans.
For school and travel, we love the more compact size of small Bliss Bins for pencils, pens, markers, highlighters. Perfect for church, Bible study and work on the go. Great to protecting snacks in backpacks and purses! The possibilities are truly endless.
Activity Bliss Bins are another favorite for school & planner supplies. Pockets & dividers inside hold pens & sticky notes nicely.
