Thats really neat! I remember those. Haven't found any for myself though. Great find! I did locate a container meant for children's toys that glows in the dark and looks very vintage. :)I think its called "glow n stow" or something.

It's like a caboodles case. I wish caboodles weren't so expensive to ship or I'd get another one to put other little stuffs in. I have a large one that was my older sisters and then somehow my younger sister got it (why - I had coveted it since forever!) but I have it now ;D It's a reeeeaaalllly 80's one. Teal, purple and hot pink. I think it's awesome. I love the sort of faux love heart handle and slip of this one.

Oooh, thanks mouse--I was thinking I had cases like this when I was younger, and after Googling I'm sure they were Caboodles! I remember the teals and purples really vividly, I kept all my little hairclips and scrunchies and plastic jewelry in them. If you have it handy, would you mind posting a picture of yours? I'd love to see it!

Of course I don't mind ;) Turns out mines not actually 'caboodles' either. Made by someone called 'Sassaby'. Please excuse the dust in it. The lid of the smaller section opens up to reveal a mirror and a little segmented tray that can lift out and has another storage bit underneath.

Ooooh I love that handle. Totally retro! Thanks for sharing, I think I might become obsessed with cases like these :P

They look awesome and are functional too - seriosuly what more could you want :P If I could get them in Australia I'd have more. I think I need one for hair accessories. And they'd be good for jewellery too. And storing craft stuffs. And little toys and accessories. The possibilities are endless!

That sounds really neat. I'd love to see it!

I could use one of those I have so many tiny accessories from my action figures and have no place to put them.

Woo Hoo! I jsut found a large Hot Pink real Caboodles case. It was filthy! I has to remove old stickers and tape and use Goo-Gone on the whole thing. But now it looks great and I am using it for my craft stuff!
-
Nice find ;D
-
For some reason I am always spotting Caboodles cases! I should grab the next one I see. I think I will :)
-
I just found one at a yard sale--it was small and missing the inner tray, but it was exactly like one I had as a child. I'm using it for my jewelry.
