my new nestie storage

cindi · #1 02-08-2010

yup, i did it..reoranized my nesties and gave them their own container..so I can store more stamps in my cd towers.
I got this plastic container at dollar tree, it has a nice strong fitting lid. teh nesties I already had in cd cases, I left in cd cases. my newer nesties I mounted right on chipboard with magnet strips, and I adhered teh pic and name of the nestie on the other side. now my nesties are all together and easy to grab and use. I saw this system some time back on a blog, but i can't remember who's, sorry.

that's how mine were, but i want my cd towers to hold my stamps..so my nesties needed to find a home of their own

i have mine stored in a drawer!!! that way i don't take up room from my stamps!

I just put my nesties in cd cases with magnetic tape. So far so good!!

Ummmm....All 4 of my sets are still in their original packages. I just keep them in there because they just snap closed.
Until that won't work anymore...hopefully, I'm good!
Great idea, though, Cindi. I will remember this for future needs.

I like how you organized your nesties.

Cindi... ( I want to do something like this in a card file drawer and i was wondering if the magnets made them all stick together?)

yes, they do a good job as long as you are careful to place them so all nesties make good contact..hopefully in at least 2 places. I have seen it done with the sheets of magnets too..that would be even sturdier..but i was too cheep to do that..lol

oh i was thinking all the sheets would stick together ( if i put them into a metal drawer) then when tried to pull them off the small ones would go "fling" somewhere... so having the strips is enough to hold them to the card but all the cards dont end up stuck together then... thats cool Thanks!
