I have an unusual problem. I've started HAED. Which made me to buy many needles. Also, I have different sizes (24,26 and 28). So, I have a question: how to storage needles without destroying them? I tried something like pin cushion, but my needles started to look funny (and useless to stitch).

Any good ideas? :D

Prescription bottles also are useful. Just make sure to make the size on the outside with a sharpie

I leave mine in the original packaging until I need one.  If I have extras I stick them in packing foam from electronic purchases.  I cut the foam down to size, it's heavy enough to stand and they are within arms reach.  I too use varying sizes, the larger sizes I use as marking pins for the ends of blocks or  where I am to go after the stitch I'm currently working is completed.  I only use 28's to stitch with, but the others are great to hold floss and mark areas.
