I am overflowing with Use and Care Cards of products I have. I want to be able to review them to learn more details of the products. I am wondering if any of you have a good storage method for yours. I thought of a binder, but I havent found one that would work. Any ideas would be great!
 
I ended up throwing mine away as anytime I wanted info on something I just went to CC anyway... I had mine in numberical order in a index card box before I tossed them though :)
 
This is my first time posting, I just joined PC on Friday.

How about using a photo album that holds 4x6 photos and then you could get those post it flags to use as dividers.
 
One of my consultants staples her card to the ones that have recipes and gives them out to people she meets.
 
I have two recipe boxes (plastic, box with lid) that I got from Walmart, and have them sorted out in abc order. I got that idea from my recruiter. I do have all my stoneware together, regardless of the name.. I started out with one, but you know what happens after a few seasons... :)
 
I have all mine in a photo box in alpha betical order. the boxes are decorative, so they look nice and I can find anyone I want. I like em.
 
You guys are too organized for me. I have mine in an EAD box but thinking of tossing them (have the recipe already cut off and put in a recipe file) because like mentioned before, you can easily look up the care on CC. Just excess paper for my already flooded with paper home. LOL Valky
 
Some of these ideas are really great. Would expect no less from you Jilleysue!!!:p ;) :D
But I think I might have to go with yummy4tummy because it is so easy to access now-a-days! I have 2 small to medium ugly cardboard boxes and they are in there but I have to admit that they are not organized! So I think I might just clip off the recipes and throw away the rest! I have almost 8 years of these things!:eek: I'll tell you what, when I first started they use to give you like 6-8 recipes in the use and care so some of them are like a booklet!!!! Time for me to let it go~ throw it away before it overtakes me! HaHa! LOL!:D
 
I bet Jilleysue has them in a PURPLE box!!!
 
I bet Jilleysue has recycled hers like me! She always talks about being paperless and this weekend, I recycled all of mine because I know I can find info online! And if they discontinue something I want info on, I'll just call and bug the solution center people! :P
 
I put mine in a recipe card box that is labeled (stoneware, cookware, baking etc) and then I have the cards in alphabetical order.
 
I keep mine in a ziploc! Hee hee! I can always find the one I need, just not as quickly as some of you others!
 
I ditch 'em.
I used to keep them all - back from before I was even a consultant...but in my recent PURGING mode I ditched 'em.
 
I'm with Gillian I have mine in a few zip lock bags , all 7 years worth . and yes I can find what I am looking for like you it may take a while.. I am liking the PURPLE BOX , I just may change and put them in the Box by stoneware ect..
 
I have most of mine from when I started 13 years ago. I have them in a plastic box for videos with divider tabs labeled by category.
 
I have mine in a recipe box but I like the idea of recycling. No one ever asks me for anything on them anyway!
