Creative Organization and Storage Solutions
United States Ithaca New York
-
I have often seen people ask for ideas on how to store or organize their games and pieces, and I have seen some great replies, as well as custom ideas in game image galleries. I'd like to bring some of those creative storage and organization ideas to one place.
I also welcome ideas that haven't found an application yet. We have seen some ideas while browsing stores such as muffin tins, or a "pull-apart cake pan" we saw at Walmart that had great curved wells. We find some things in the silverware-storage aisle that have a lot of potential.
Please click the images to give the creators thumbs, as you are so moved

The 14mm pick 'n' pluck foam grid (manufacturer: Feldherr) is perfect for holding your precious Irondice.
This is a 25mm tray cut in half, so it's now roughly 12.5mm, which lets the 14mm dice protrude just a little, making it easy to grab and replace them.

My son liked my meeple bags so much I had to make him a set too. I also made him a tile bag, it's only fair after all.

My (not very creative, but efficient) storage solution for Lost Battles is one GMT counter tray for all counters except the Empire markers:
Empire markers are in small baggies next to the mounted Empire board. The book sits on one side and the tiles are in four stacks (two small, two big, one removed in the picture to show the contents below) to create a flat surface for the counter tray, rules and player aids.

Dollar Tree is currently carrying these mini snack containers...
10 for $1.00
A little smaller than the Gerber magic but for those without infants, perhaps a suitable replacement.

Dollar Tree is currently carrying these mini snack containers...
10 for $1.00.
These are quite nice 8 of the square ones work (for 6 colors of meeples, and 1 for dragon/fairy/trading goods, 1 for catapult tokens), plus Toms Tuckboxes (available here at BGG) plus the insert for catapult (with one side cut off) are what I use to house Carcassonne, I&C, T&B, Count, River1, River 2, and the Catapult. ALL in the original box.
Also one of the other square ones now holds the dice for TTR Dice Expansion with one of the Round ones holding the tiles for same game inside of the dice cup (the round one sits on the top and actually works as a cover for the dice cup (mouth just a wee bit too wide to slide into the cup.
Also size is right on round ones to hold the wooden bits for Mr Jack, another for lights/manhole covers and another round one holds pieces for Mr Jack Extension (although the barrier must be taken apart).

I might have to stop at a Dollar Tree on my way home today and see if they have any of these in stock. Would be perfect for Loyang.
