Another storage idea

Kim Carr share this great idea via email and gave me permission to pass it on :)

After 17 years of SLP-ing this is the system that works the best for me.... 6x9 brown envelopes! I glue the title, instructions and all information needed on the outside of the envelope then I run the whole envelope through the laminator.  Carefully cut open the opening of the envelope and it holds all the cards (that I have laminated).


 
Dollar store containers hold the envelope great.


I think I have 300+ envelopes!

Love this idea, Kim!

  2. That is very similar to what I do! I used to cut out the laminate around the brads, but the brads tend to break off over time. Small Velcro dots are perfect for securing the flap to the back of the envelope. Some of my folders have been laminated for 17 years, and they're still going strong!


    Oh, How Pintearesting!

  3. Laura...as you can see from the pictures....I gave up trying to close the envelopes because the brads always broke. Velcro is a great idea! I know what I will be doing Monday. Thanks for the tip! Kim
