I have cards from Becky Higgins, Simple Stories, MAMBI and subscribe to Cocoa Daisy's Day in the Life kit. I use a Raskog Cart and 2 medium containers from CTMH to store it all. Looks like I am *this* close to having to order another CTMH container. Why is it so much easier to shop than it is to scrap?   Update: I got everything put away and thankfully got everything to fit. I definitely need to stop buying and start scrapbooking! |

Which containers do you use from CTMH? How many cards do they hold? I think I might get a couple. I am a complete PL card hoarder! I don't even have time to scrap but I somehow fit in the shopping part of it!

They are just called the medium organizer. Item [HASH]Z4139 for $19.95 and also come in a small and large size. I suppose they will hold at least 5 complete BH kits - not sure how many cards that equals out to be. You can find lots of You Tube videos showing how others have organized their containers. I love them! Just wasn't planning to need a 3rd one.  |

If it makes you feel better, when I did THIS blog post a year ago, I needed 2 of these plastic shoeboxes:  I just started my 4th  |

The CTMH containers hold a lot for sure, but I hate that there are spaces on the sides. I found a plastic basket inset at IKEA and it holds the same amount at the CTMH carrier. I think it is called Antonius. They are only $3. They don't travel well though if you like closed containers. I like that you can see right through them. They fit in the Raskog cart too.

I have the CTMH containers and love them... One has four full BH kits plus about eight of the mini kits and there's still room... I wish there were half kits - the full kits have so many cards, but the minis don't have enough (I'd like four of each card so I have two of each of the designs)... The other container has some other brand PL cards - mostly WRMK... Those kits are smaller and I'm not sure how many are in there, but I made dividers with some plain card stock and my envelope punch board (so they'd have a tab on the top), and that keeps them sorted...

I have a couple of these trays in my Raskog and you're right they are pretty great! But, I like how I can stack 2 of the CTMH containers in a Expedit square and it is easier to travel with them. It's just time to spend "less time" trying to organize vs. actually scrapbooking.  |

I like the shoebox way of storing. I'm going to have to get a couple.

It's just time to spend "less time" trying to organize vs. actually scrapbooking. I use regular photo boxes. I can stack two in my Expedit. There's a bit of room on the side of each box, but I put rolling date stamps, arrow stickers, and a few other misc. things there. I guess they wouldn't travel as well as the CTMH containers, but they're cheaper. |
