Suzanne show used how she decorated empty toliet paper and paper towel dowel with fabric and inserted these into an unused kitchen utensil holder.
Mary loves her Jordana Paige Knitting Needle Storage Box. This box is a cute little storage for straight needles and it conveniently has a inventory and needle conversion chart on the back.
A less expensive alternative is to find a wine box for sale at a local Big Lots or Hobby Lobby. Michael's Craft Store might also carry some wine boxes.
Another straight needle option is using one of those many extra vases that we have stored in our cabinets. Karen shared her picture with us.

I found that my needles were in a state of dispair when I could not find a pair and I had circulars doing there thing (ie: messing everything up)
I put pen to paper and then made this. I love it and now everything has a home.

That picture at the bottom is the same vase I have, and used for the same purpose! Most of my old straights (I switched to circs due to wrist problems) are the colorful Boyle ones, so I put old Mardi Gras beads in the bottom of the vase and tied a big purple ribbon around it for added charm.
Love these solutions - mine are in a metal vase my daughter gave me ... photos are here: http://r-anne-dom.blogspot.com/2011/06/where-are-your-needles-and-hooks.html
Now I just need to find a better place for my circulars ... they are sorted by size in a drawer for now. :)
