An Easy (and Cheap!) Card Storage Solution

Since I created my Story Element Cards, I’ve been storing them in an unusual and affordable storage container and realized I never shared more about this!

So today, I wanted to share a quick tip for an easy way to store visuals and cards!

Fun Fact: The plastic 5 Gum containers (like the one shown above) fit many printable flashcards and visuals perfectly, including the ones in my Story Elements and Visuals resource. I realized this a while ago and have been collecting these plastic boxes since!

Not a gum chewer, or don’t want to wait until your container is empty? No problem! You can grab similar small clear containers that work just as well for storing your cards and visuals. Here are a few options in different sizes:

• 5 Pcs Mini Plastic Storage Containers with Lid (4x3x1 inches, clear)
• ISKYBOB 6 Packs Small Plastic Storage Containers (clear rectangle with lids, 3.7×2.4 inches)
• 4 Pcs Mini Clear Plastic Storage Containers with Lid (3.7×2.5×1 inches, clear rectangle)

By combining my resource and this free storage container, you can get DIY story grammar, story element, and story part visuals for a really affordable price! You also get poster sized visuals for putting the story elements together into different story structures. Learn more here.

Anyways, these plastic containers snap closed pretty easily and have been a really handy storage solution for me! If I’m buying gum anyways, why not get a storage container for free, right? 😂
