STORING STAMPS.

Hello stamping friends.

Today I am posting some pictures of how I store my Darkroom Door stamps.
I have 22 yummy sets! They come in flat tins.
I found they fit nicely on their side in a small carry/luggage bag.




To find the right set quickly, I have written the name of the set in permanent marker on the side of the tin

Close up view


It fits 17 sets this way, so I have four on top like this


There is one tin in a outside pocket. I am now going to have to look for a slightly bigger bag.....I have a feeling there are more sets to come! ;)

Besides been neat and tidy, its easy to transport when going to a stamp day/weekend.
If I can`t make up my mind which sets I want to use, I just take the lot!

So, how do you store your stamps?

  5. Great idea! I store mine in a cupboard with my other boxed stamps (mostly Stampin' Up). I like to have them loose so I can pull them out to see what's in the tins. I really love the Darkroom Door stamps - such great quality and such beautiful images.
