Organizing Card Games

My family loves games, but my husband’s family really loves playing games.  Every time we get together we play games.  Board games or card games, it doesn’t matter, as long as we are together and having fun!  I learned this little organizing tip from my mother-in-law.  She keeps all of her card games in a small plastic storage tub!  Brilliant!  Its perfect, whenever we want to play a game we know right where they are, all the cards are in their boxes (no need for counting), she even keeps paper and pens/pencils in the box for keeping score.  She brings the game box to relatives’ houses, camping trips, and anywhere we might want to play a game.  So after all of these years I finally started my own game box.

Mine is still a work in progress, but you get the idea!  I like everything to have a place, and now even our cards do!

*By the way I love plastic storage containers, all sizes, especially the big ones.  I even ask for them for Christmas!  They have so many uses.  I store seasonal decorations, out of season clothes, old toys that we still want to keep, books, and so much more.  I love it because I can label each box, things are in there place, and the items in the box are protected from water, dust, and bugs.  They are a great way to get organized!
