IRIS Cosmetic Train Case Nail Polish Organizer

Brilliant way for storing your memories

My mom passed and we went through her scrapbook collections to organize the photos. It worked so well and we were able to arrange them by collection, year, grouping or event. Found post it notes which fit perfectly on each top. Went from random photo collection to organized in just a few hours. Now we just grab whatever case we want to look at to see that year or event. Compared to the random collection of old, random sized scrapbooks she had taking up 2 whole shelves, this fits easily on one and has the Carrying case for easy access. I can not tell you how much better I feel knowing how easy it is to just grab a case labeled ‘cabin’ and look at family photos from there. Like a weight has been lifted. Highly recommend.

First off, the XL listing comes with 2 Cases. Each case has 16 holders that each hold 100 4×6 photos. So one XL listing is good for up to 3200 4×6 photos!

My wife and I both had several old photo albums plus shoe boxes of photos that was almost unmanageable in its current state. So we started looking for a way better way to organize and protect all of our printed photos. The problem with albums is that we just weren’t making new albums with 4×6’s and all our current ones were of various vintage and looked terrible. Most new photos get made into photo books and the backups are stored digitally locally and in the cloud. So what we were looking for was a way to sort, store and protect our old photos. After much research we purchased the IRIS photo organizer. On a cost per photo basis it was the most economical way to store the thousands of photos we have. We have an Ikea 15″ Billy bookcase in our office and this fits perfectly on the shelf. Such a nice compact way to sort as store. Each 100 photo section is labelled by event/date and if we ever want to reminisce, we can just spread out the photos.

Pros:
Compact
Neat
Well Made
Economical

Cons:
Have to touch the photo’s to view.

We will definitely buy more as our printed collection expands. We also bought the 5×7 box’s as well. In fact we love the IRIS system so much we’ve had family members buy into them as well.

One tip is to save those silica gel packs you get with new goods and toss them into the bottom of the case to bring the humidity level down and protect your photo’s for generations.

These kits work GREAT! Over the years my family and I have shot THOUSANDS of pictures. We have put quite a bunch into “official” albums but that still leaves a TON of over run.

Using these Suitcases and Clam-shells to keep the rest organized and protected makes everything so much nicer!

The only thing I will suggest to you is that either here on AMAZON or at your local Office Supply Store you pick up some labels so you can mark not just the outer cases but also the inner clam-shells. This way you can see at a glance what is in each case and then what is in each clam without having to go through them all.

If you are an old-school picture person who wants more than just a digital copy of everything I MUST recommend these to you! I will also recommend that you make a date of it and re-look at all your pictures with those special people in your life as you sort through some great memories!!!

Hope you enjoy your purchase!!! GOD BLESS!!!

Like many others, I’ve been using two of these for sorting and storing my garden seeds. I can sort my seeds by type. I have one for new seeds and one for older seeds. They keep seeds fresh and secure from humidity, bugs and mice, tho I don’t have that problem much in the high desert.

Saw some youtubers do this and it really is the perfect storage solution for seed packets. Great size and makes it so easy to find the seeds you’re looking for.

Very high quality. Doesn’t feel flimsy at all. Each separate box snaps into its place snugly. I bought 2 – one for warm season crops, one for cold.

Might not work if you have A LOT of seed packets, but I think it’s great for the average home gardener.
