Need ideas for making my own "pin book"

[Jules]

I have corkboards, but am ready to put pins into specific books. I now have too many pins in boxes and lying around. Anyone have any suggestions. I can go to Michael's, Walmart, Office Max, and Staples.

Thanks

I got on for trade/sale

I made this a while back, but have since gotten a real pin trading bag (thanks to my good friend!):

It may prove useful for a temporary situation?

some people use thick binders and put the plastic sheets in that are meant to hold collectable cards.

I do this and it works very well. You can keep the pins on cards or on a piece of foam sheet so you don't see through the clear plastic around the pins. For larger cards/pins you can use 2- and 3- slot photo sheets. You can get the foam sheets at Michaels, but the cheapest place for the baseball card and photo sheets will probably be ebay. Even with shipping to Canada it was cheapest for me to get them on ebay (if you want the name of an ebay seller PM me).

You can also use the clear binder protectors (separators? those clear plastic sheets) and put a few sheets of construction paper in them and put the pins through the construction paper. Place everything in the binder protestors. It worked really well for me minus the fact I am now down to 3 traders :lol:

Thanks everyone! I went with the zippered binder and plastic sleeves with a foam sheet inside. I appreciate all your input/ideas/offers. I am going to DLR at the end of May, so I may check them out there when I go, but this will be great for awhile.
Have a great day!

Jenna I love that thread. That's so cute the way you made the pin bag? Are you still using it? Is it in good shape?
