I have quite a few cartridges and am looking for an efficient way to store them for easy access. Any ideas?

I am going to use a 3 ring binder, plastic divider pages and Velcro. I'll put velcro on the cartridge and on the divider page and have them in alpha order with several rows on a page. I think this will be useful because I'll have them all safe, within easy reach, and if I want to hang them up at some point, I'll be able to just hang the pages on the wall from hooks.

I store mine a little different, with folders for the overlays and books. Carts are in plastic box. I do have some photos on my blog. Hope this helps!

I have two of the CGull cartridge totes. Each tote holds 72 cartridges and their handbooks and overlays. Since I go to retreats and workshops it is easy for me to take them with me if someone else will be there that wants to use them. (otherwise I can just use the Gypsy) I find it hand at home too as they are all in alphabetical order and easy to find.

I keep my carts in my Jukebox. I store the overlays & books in a bin. See the picture, it is on the bottom shelf in the purple & orange bin. they are in alpha order. The carts are all mixed up in the Jukebox, but now that I have a G, I don't use them a lot. scrappy_becki attached the following image(s):

My Expression is stored in a wardrobe cabinet with two doors. I needed a way to keep the cartridges available while using DS to be able to just swap them out quickly. I put a small dot of loop tape (velcro) on the back of each one. Then I hung a piece of foamcore on the inside of the cabinet door and placed matching dots of hook tape in rows. I put the carts in alpha order, so I know if something is missing right away.
I keep the handbooks and overlays together in a shallow box that is stored on one of the shelves. I put the overlay upside down in front of the booklet so that I can see the title on the overlay (yes, I read upside down).
This system keeps the carts handy for when I'm using DS and just need to swap out cartridges; or if I'm using the keypads, I can pull the booklet and keypad then put in the cartridge.

Let's see if this link works...It is a message board thread that describes the storage that I use. http://www.cricut.com/me...px?m=3433071&mpage=1This is the system I use and I LOVE it! It is the snapware container with plastic inserts. I easily carry 40 carts and their overlays/booklets AND my Gypsy and cords with one handle. Love it! I have just outgrown my first set and will be adding more layers (thanks to the Imagine Carts!) Jill
