If you are a handyman, home owner or someone who loves making things, you probably have a multitude of nuts and bolts. These nuts and bolts can be dangerous if swallowed. They can cause accidents if slipped on, and it can be a pain to find the one you want if they are in a jumble. Organizing nuts and bolts is easy and inexpensive.
Instructions
1. Purchase empty spice bottles from a discount or home store. You may purchase spice bottles that come with a spinning spice rack or purchase individual spice bottles.
2. Spread a layer or two of old newspaper over a picnic table or your kitchen table to protect it.
3. Gather all the nuts and bolts you have. Check your garage, cupboards, drawers, basement, and other work areas to make sure you have them all. Lay these on the newspaper.
4. Sort the nuts and bolts by type; one type will go in each spice container.
5. Label the lids of the containers clearly with a permanent marker. You can use simple names such as round bolt, square top bolt or other descriptive terms. If you want to go a step further, trace around the shape of the nut or bolt on the lid so you can see exactly what it is.
6. Place the spice bottles in the spinning spice rack if you purchased a spice rack when you bought the bottles. A spinning spice rack will make it easier to view the different nuts and bolts. If you did not purchase a spinning rack, place the spice bottles containing the nuts and bolts on a shelf where they are organized. The contents of each spice bottle should be easily viewed.
