very ingenious... I even have a few lying around from a trip i made to HD 2 years ago... I will cut, put holes in it and stick it in my binder because I don't have a door to put them on. Thanks.

Hey Susan, I just did the same thing on monday. I covered a bulletin board I had hanging in my art room with the same vent covers, but I used contact adhesive to stick them on. I love the way your are hidden behind cabinet doors. I more stuff I can store out of sight, the better for me. Attachments:

Can you tell me how big your bulletin board is? It looks like everything fits perfectly on that size board! I love the idea of it hidden behind the cabinet door too. I have been trying to figure out how to store these without them getting bent. Thanks for sharing both of your great ideas!

This is how I store all my Spellbinder dies! (I discovered Spellbinders before Quickutz.) I attached the vent covers to my cupboard doors with velcro. That way I can reposition them if I need to. So far I haven't so adhesive seems like it would be just as good. We are remodeling our kitchen so they just hung one of my old cabinets in the laundry room where I store a lot of my stuff! More doors are good!!! Jeff never goes in there which is even better. I do love vent covers. Dani knows why!

I think this would also work well with border die storage. My wheels are turning.......

Wow...this is a good idea to store the cookie cutter dies, thanks for sharing.
I will re-organise my cc dies by using this idea when i settle down in Vancouver in Apr 2010.

Dani knows why! okay Susie - I'll bite... why does Dani know why you love MAGNETIC VENT COVERS??!?!?!?!??!!? Glad everyone else likes the idea - or discovered it before me. Day late and a dollar short - story of my life. But glad i was able to pass along a "Frugal Find"...love those things!! enjoy ladies - and post pix if you reorganize...I'm sure we'd love to see them!

Great idea! My husband is headed to the States tomorrow, and I have added Home Depot and magnetic vent covers to his list of stops.
