Hi everyone! Just want to share my storage for Spellbinders Nestabilites. The dies cling beautifully to the magnetic sheets I found at my local hardware store. Ask for air conditioning vent covers. I think these magnet sheets are thicker than the sheets sold in craft stores or elsewhere. They cut easily with your paper cutter, or plain scissors. I cut them to fit inside a standard VHS case. I am using the case that does NOT have the hubs inside that once held the video tape. The case is nice and open and is about an inch deep. It can hold many sets of Nesties. This storage works very well for me. I can retrieve them quickly and find what I'm looking for in a matter of seconds. I chose this kind of storage over the binder idea because I KNOW that I would not what to take the time to file them back in the pockets when I am done. Honestly, I know that I would be lazy about returning them back to any pocket page or binder. I've been storing them this way for a few years now and it really works well for me. I'm posting a few photos in hopes that it will help some of you as well.
I'm not sure who to give credit for this great idea. Please let me know will you? Thank you to all of you who share your organizing ideas here on SCS.
I love this place!
Thanks for looking!
Deb

Thanks for the great idea - - and your honesty.
I am revamping my storage because I am lazy when scrapping.
Drawers seem to work best for me for "in reach" things. I can just open the drawer, grab what I want, drop it back in and shut. Easy peasy!

Thank you soooooo much for this idea! My craft supplies have been multiplying (in proportion to the diminishing bank account *grin*) and this is a perfect idea! Like you I find returning supplies to ring binders challenging. I love boxes! Thanks again and Happy Holidays!
