Can you please show me/explain what you used to organize all your PL cards? I have seen that the best way to organize your cards on one of these is to use the insides of the boxes from the core kits (I hope that made sense). However, I don't have any of these inserts. I do want to buy one of these carts, but I want to make sure it will work for holding all of my PL cards.

I don't use the Raskog for my PL cards but I do have the insert that fits in there from Ikea. I believe a lot of people use the same insert for their PL cards. It's the antonious divider. www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/50043573/ |

I was "moonlightgrrl" on 2Peas, but since everything else has changed, I switched here, too.

I have 2 Raskog carts with the Antonius inserts like crazyrn said. One cart is for PL cards - two tiers have Antonius inserts: the top is my kit club PL cards and any specialty ones I find (gold foil, wood veneer, etc); the middle is my BH core/mini kits plus non-kit-related printables; the bottom tier (without an insert)is for embellishments, which are stored in plastic divided boxes and Studio Calico magnetic PL boxes, and Thickers. The second cart is for stamping supplies and tools - two tiers have Antonius inserts: the top tier is for stamps that use often, new kit stamps before they are filed into CD cases, stamp blocks and a couple of other random things; the middle tier is for dew drops and other ink pads, mists, and watercolor supplies; the bottom tier (without an insert) is for my trimmer and punches.

Patter Cross posted how she organizes her PL cards using a Raskog cart from Ikea. She separated her 4x6 cards from the 3x4 cards and also separated the title cards from the others. I prefer to keep entire sets together and I can just fan through quickly to see what I want to use. It all depends on how much product you have and how your mind organizes things (do you think color, or set, or size?).
If I get to an IKEA store, I may use her idea of the gray cart and washi tape border. Instead of library cards, 7gypsies makes a smaller version of the tabbed dividers.

I just use repurposed boxes for my PL cards - that way I can make my own dividers and aren't stuck to one configuration.

Thanks so much for the ideas and links. I was looking at those Antonius inserts, and they'll definitely work for all of my PL cards. I may even get some of those inserts to help organize some of my other supplies. Thanks everyone!

I use the Antonius inset too, plus an organizer I got last year (at a Pea's recommendation) from the Land of Nod. They both work really well!

I second Antonius inserts. Also those plastic boxes that Fererro Rocher choclates come in are perfect for 3x4 cards  |

I use the antonius inserts and love them. I also use the medium storage container to hold more cards and those 3x3 plastic mini boxes for embellishments from CTMH.

I just got the shipping notification for my Antonius inserts for my cart... I keep seeing the carts organized with them that I had to get them for my PL cards! I haven't figured out what I want to do for the top of my cart yet (I have a paper organizer in part of it) and the bottom card is for my flair/button makers, but I am going to put the PL cards in the middle.  |

But, getting my PL cards sounds like a great excuse to go buy some. I'll also be sure to get some of those Antonius inserts the next time I get to an Ikea. I wish the nearest Ikea wasn't two hous away, though. :-( |

I've also seen people use the Tjena box from Ikea in the Raskog cart and they say you can fit more in it than the Antonius insert. And at $3.49, the price is right! (ETA: look at the second photo on the IKEA site and you'll see it's a divided box which could be modified to use for both 3x4 and 4x6 cards) LINK TO IKEA TJENA BOX

Ooooo, I like those better than the Antonius because they have a lid. And, they come in pink. I bet the pink boxes with the grey cart look super cute together. Thanks for the link! |

If you go to the message boards and search on "tjena", you'll find a photo of someone's Raskog cart with the Tjena box on the top shelf. Sorry, I don't know how to link it up here. |

I love using the Ikea Raskog cart; the only PL related item that I store in it are my roller date stamps. I do use the antonious inserts too. So many options for organizing this cart.. |

I have the Raskog and the antonious inserts as well. I only have one tray devoted to my PL cards. I currently have two full kits loaded in one tray with room to spare. Love how much they hold and how well they fit in the cart! The other two trays hold antonius inserts as well and are loaded with my "go to" tools: ATG gun, stamp pads, corner chomper, WRMK envelope punch board, etc. I like having my most used tools and supplies on the cart so that I can wheel it where I need it to go and have all of my items at my finger tips rather than searching through the many bins of my scrapbox.

I'm sure I have a Ferrero Rocher biz in my scrap room..... Although it is not holding 3 x4 cards!
