No more bulky game cases!

My kids got Leapster 2 game systems for Christmas.
They love them....and I don't love the bulky cases they come in! They just take up way too much room. Since starting the 21 day challenge over at A bowl full of lemons, I have been on an organizing kick. Last night was toy organization and it got me thinking about these cases.
I found some small manila envelopes that the instructions would fit perfectly in.
I made some labels and cut the front picture from the sleeve.
And there you have it!!

I need to get some more envelopes so I can do the same with our Wii games.
I plan to buy some CD sleeves and keep the Wii games in the envelopes with the instructions.

  1. I love the idea on a "It makes sense to get rid of the bulk" level but the other side of me is cringing at the idea of taking my Wii games out of their pretty white cases.
