    Wow! You have a lot of postcards. I just started postcrossing and I hope I can also have the same collection soon. I'm 16 years old from the Philippines. Mabuhay! 😊 I love your videos. 😁😁

    The ikea boxes are a great tip. I still haven't figured out the best way to store my cards. Now they are in chronological order, but I have a feeling there must be another better way out there somewhere haha. Thanks for your lovely video Caroline, bisous

      Hi Lieve! Yes when you have lots of postcards it’s difficult to find a perfect way to store your postcards. Chronological order is also very nice! Mine are also in chronological order but under each country. Have a lovely day my dear and thanks a lot for your comment!!! I really appreciate it! 😘

    Thank you for sharing this video and the way you store your postcards.
    Since I still have more or less 400 postcards I organize them in an album. The doubles to send I have them on a small shoe box.
    Have a nice weekend Carol. Kisses!!!

      Thank you for your comment and for letting us all know how your store your card! I was also storing my card in a photo album in the beginning and I remember that I was always looking at it while waiting for new cards to come 😄 have a lovely weekend my dear friend!!!! Kisses!!! 🌸

    I was so happy to see that you uploaded another video! and it was such a interesting to watch! ❤️ I absolutely agree, storaging postcards in boxes its the best way. I storage my cards in 3 boxes and I organize them by themes. I also have another box just for letters from my penpals. I admire all people that storage their postcards in albums. I would probably need like thousand albums for my postcards collection 😂

      Hey! Thanks a lot for your very nice and long comment!!! Thank you so so much! Hahaha I would also need thousands of albums to store my postcards if i was still doing the album storage (like I did at the beginning) - albums is not an option for my collection anymore! 😅 that would take way too much space in my home!!! 😃😄 oh wow nice you store yours by theme? That’s very nice!!!! Have a nice day and week!!!! ☀️💕🤗

    Greetings from Finland!
    That's a good way to store them! I have mine in one box altogether. I started last year in spring, so they fit in that box for now.
    I always put the newest cards I have received on my fridge with magnets so that I can look at them and everyone who comes can see them. And sometimes I post a pic on Instagram.
    Put you on follow ;)

      Hi Ana!!! So happy to read you!!! Yes albums are not the best solution because of the sizes of postcards that vary and also at some point (if your collection will grow) it will take up way to much space in your home! I was using albums at the beginning but stopped doing this after a year or so 😀 oh thank you for the color of my dress! I love it too! 😄 actually it’s my boyfriend who offered me this dress, I love it! 🌸 have a lovely day and week and happy postcrossing Ana! 💋
