Seed Storage for a Master Gardener or Novice

I have been in search for a VERY long time for the BEST way to store my seeds. I think I FINALLY have the answer!
First I tried the cheap photo album idea....it was okay..but could be a pain.
And I also used the empty coffee cans ALONG with the albums..even tried sorting by flowers and food
While at a quick Goodwill stop, I found this file box for 99 cents. If it didnt work it wouldn't be a total loss
I'm a pack rat, and had index cards that weren't being used (for like 10 years they weren't being used!) Got out my paper cutter and cut them to the size I wanted.
Even the odd size packets would fit! YES!!!
So from ALL of this.....I found I really wasnt out of lettuce or cilantro seeds like I thought...
EVERYTHING!!! And I mean everything with room for plenty more in one convenient system! Label me one very happy gardener!!! All in one spot :-)
**** I was originally looking for an old plastic cassette box....but VERY happy I found this!

This is genius. I started trying to tape the packets to a gardening notebook but now I can’t write comfortably on the pages and it’s too thick. But this is PERFECT. Thank you for the great idea
