katilac Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 Because they're planner stencils, we want them easily accessible and easy to look through. Page protectors work, but the stencils are 4x7 or smaller so it's a bit of a pain to remove them. Ideas so far: 5x7 photo pockets - I don't have any currently, but this could be a long term solution Filed in an index card holder - this is how we currently have them, not bad but kind of hidden away I guess I could cut down regular page protectors, but I lack faith in my ability to do it evenly Put them in pocket charts - I have a green one where they would show up great, we would be able to see them all quickly and remove our choice quickly, but it would be in a different room (close by, that we do go in often) - is a great storage solution worth being in another room? What else? I have truckloads of craft supplies, so a diy option is possible even in lockdown. Quote
ElizabethB Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 I don't have stencils. These may work. https://www.amazon.com/EnvyPak-Clear-Archival-Punched-Protector/dp/B01HISV6LI/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1UL3E7IXLD9RI&dchild=1&keywords=4x6+photo+pages+for+3+ring+binder&qid=1586302504&sprefix=4X6+photo+pages%2Caps%2C206&sr=8-4 1 Quote

katilac Posted April 8, 2020 Author Posted April 8, 2020 @ElizabethB I decided to check for the right size photo pockets one more time - still don't have them, but I did find an 8x8 scrapbook that will work! My planner stencils are gonna be very fancy 😄 1 Quote
stephanier.1765 Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 I have a pocket folder in back that holds them. The long ones extended a bit past the top of the binder but that only makes it easier for me to grab. LOL Speaking of planners, I need to go get tomorrow's done. Oops, nearly forgot. 1 Quote
klmama Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 Our stencils are in a drawer in a small 3-drawer unit, sort of like this one. 1 Quote

stephanier.1765 Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 I keep the majority of my planner supplies in a plastic tool box similar to this one. https://www.amazon.com/ArtBin-Essentials-Lift-Out-Craft-Storage/dp/B01BPEX7YA/ref=sr_1_11?dchild=1&keywords=plastic+tool+box+craft&qid=1586354382&sr=8-11 1 Quote
vonfirmath Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 I have all my stencils in the case with my planner pens. Unfortunately I have mislaid it at the moment. It's around here somewhere. 2 1 Quote
