Organize Your Slides in Waxed Paper or Foil Boxes

Waxed paper, aluminum foil, or similar 2" square kitchen boxes are perfect for keeping stacked slides grouped by chapter—no rubber bands needed. Clearly mark each divider and number slides per chapter (each chapter starts at #1) to keep the presentation order intact for scanning.

Fast, Tidy Slide Organization

Place stacks into a snug 2" square box (waxed paper, foil, baggie boxes, etc.). Add a labeled divider between “shows” or chapters. Number slides for each chapter starting at #1 (e.g., Chapter 1: 1–45, Chapter 2: 1–32) so your folder order matches your story when we scan.
