Amiibo card collectors, is your storage container decorated?

[Bluelady]

I was wondering if people that store their Animal Crossing amiibo cards in a binder or box also decorate the covers of the storage item. I recently bought a nice orange 3-ring binder with a flap on the cover. However, I'm lacking inspiration on how to decorate it. I did consider cutting out the front cover of the amiibo packaging box and making a collage, but I don't know. Maybe I should just find some art online and print it out to size.

If you do decorate them, please post a pic or describe them to me. I would really appreciate this. Thank you!

I dont "collect" in the normal sense.
But my plastic is thrown around haphazardly
God knows where half of them are.
But it's okay. I can replace when needed

Unfortunately I'm of no help at all because I keep my small amount in a ziploc bag LOL. However I definitely recommend trying Etsy for decorative purposes if you're up for it. Sellers on there make some rly cute stickers. I've bought a few myself for other non-animal crossing related things and they were so worth it! Depending on where you live, the shipping could be a bit pricey but I've had no issues with that website so far :3

I believe you can also find some nice binder covers and personalized stickers as well but I could be wrong.

Hope this helped and good luck with ur designing!!

I didn't know about this. Hopefully a few of the stickers will be in my price range. Thank you!

I keep my amiibo cards in an old camera case.. A binder would be a good idea though!

 

[tiffanistarr]

I have them strewn around in various places lol some are in my purse, others are on a shelf, and some are just dumped in a makeup bag. I keep my mains all together in one place so I can move them in and out as desired. The rest are just wherever lol. I don’t really care what happens to some of them and since they have no decent monetary value i kinda just feel meh about them at this point.

I only have a few Amiibo cards, so I leave them lying around. I don’t have enough to justify owning a whole binder. What use is a binder when you have less than five cards?

I bought a red binder and some 3x3 sleeve inserts, so all my cards are sorted in numerical order and kept neatly out of the way to prevent damage. I haven't really done anything to the binder, though. In fact, I left the "this is a binder, here are its dimensions, buy more of our stuff" paper in the front cover rather than removing it because that way I know which side is the front. I'm a fantastic organizer but uh . . . not artistically inclined.

 

[Zerous]

I have a decent amount, But I just keep them in a neat pile with an elastic band around them. For me it's just easier storage wise.

No, mine are just in a binder in those plastic card organizer page things.
Although it wouldn't hurt to put a cute sticker on the cover...

 

[NicksFixed]

I have the five official binders and I bought this one from playasia ... That has just enough room for all the Sanrio, WA and Amiibo Festival cards ...

 

[DJ-Mika]

For my main S1-5 and WA I have the official binders (only missing the Series 4 binder!)

Before the binders though I just had them all in card sleeves and stored in plastic sandwich bags LOL
Even with the official binders I still didn't have a place to store my duplicates; it was getting a bit much to keep up with, so I caved and got a plain black card binder from GameStop Even though this binder is supposed to hold like 350 cards or something I still have a stack of free floating cards cause it filled the whole thing

I have mine in a binder. I got the binder for $3 during the time of year when school supplies started going on clearance (that time of year will be coming around again soon). I printed out an Animal Crossing picture I liked from the internet for the front. Then I bought a big set of Animal Crossing stickers for $9.99 on Amazon. My absolute favorite stickers I glued to the binder, front and back. I still had a lot of stickers leftover, so I sent them as freebies for people I trade Amiibo with. I have the Amiibo organized within the binder by personality and then alphabetically. For each personality I looked up some images online that reminded me of aspects of that personality, printed it out along with a font I chose, and stuck the page in the binder as a section divider.

That’s so cute! Thank you for sharing!

Yes keep mine in a giant binder in card sleeve by personality. Yeah a little ocd but I only need like 60 from all the set and have all of them.

 

[azurill]

My cards are in a binder in sleeves. I have not decorated it but I might. They are not really organized just have the ones I use more often in the front. I have some smaller ones in a plastic container.

For me, series 1-4 and the Sanrio pack are in sleeves in a binder. It's one of those binders that have a slip in the front for you to put an A4 sheet of paper, so I made simple cover for it with the AC leaf background, AC style writing, and then a couple of photos from my island. For series 5, I bought the official album, which I really love!
