What a great idea. I live in Norway, and really hope I can find bins like that here since there is a IKEA store here also! If youd like to trade cards with me send me an e-mail. I lovebeautiful cards also, and have a nice collection!!!

ooooh, i love japanese 100 yen stores. for those of you in new york, a similar “japanese outlet store” exists here in the u.s. it’s called samurai123 and there is a branch in the garment district (on 8th i believe). it’s not as good as the ones in japan, but you can get the idea. i’d love to hear of any others that folks know about…

anyway, love the bins you got there maitreya.

what a wonderful idea!!! i am an avid card collector as well… i’ve even kept all the cards given to me since i was a bitty kiddo… right now, some are in boxes while others are on a fan display of mine… and then i make my own but dont particularly display them… anyhow, a splendid idea! (not to mention, its a pleasure to see others who have the same passion for cards)

that is a great idea! i have seen those bin thingies at Dollarama stores all over here in Ontario (Canada). i personally use napkin holders to store my cards in, my favourite one is metal shaped like the outlines of a fork, knife, and spoon, and you can see the cards through it. (does that make any sense? i couldn’t think in words how to describe it!) :)

Great idea – have lost count of the number of times I’ve knocked my pile of packets of card blanks all over the floor while deciding which to use!

The Pedantic One surfaces to say:

I think you mean stationEry unless you are discussing the fact your cards aren’t running around.

(Just remember E for Envelope in stationEry)

I’ll shut up now after saying great idea!

Where did you get those cute bins? I have never seen them that small before. I just adore this idea!

What a wonderful idea (and just from the glimpse, I can tell that I love your cards)! Wherever did you find the perfect size fabric bins?
