How to organize your seed packets is the next level of hack. Seed packets are one of the most difficult things to organize. It’s so simple to get caught in the seed box or drawer trap. That is to say, accumulating tons of tiny packets because you can’t see what you already have. Not to mention the mess if the packets get spilled.
Sheet protectors originally designed for photos, trading cards, and business cards have tiny pockets. For this reason, they’re a genius way to get all your garden seeds in one accessible place.
You won’t have to worry about buying the same kinds because each packet is easy to see. You can also add dividers or use tabs to organize by planting season or type of plant.
Additionally, a gardening calendar with planting dates can be conveniently kept in your seed binder. Put it in a sheet protector or just slip it in the binder cover and you’re good to go.
You can turn your seed binder into a garden journal by adding additional pages at the back for garden planning and daily entries if you’re feeling particularly ambitious.

Paint stir sticks are typically available for free at your neighborhood hardware store. Large craft sticks made of wood also work.

3) Upgrade to waterproof labels for organizing garden supplies
Paper labels are not built to withstand water, dirt, and other outdoor elements, and working outside can be messy. Instead, organize gardening supplies with waterproof film labels. Avery film labels come in several different varieties, but the best for gardening are waterproof rather than water-resistant.
Our waterproof labels are also resistant to oils and common household chemicals. In other words, you can take containers out in the sunny damp garden, get messy and wipe them down afterward, no problem.
Since there are more than 100 different shapes and sizes of Avery waterproof labels on a sheet, we created this “cheat sheet” of quick links to help you choose the best ones for your project.
