E.T.A.: Stamputations Dear Reader,
Today is random-need-a-day-off-Blogged-down--So-tired-can't-think-straight-Didn't-quite-make-it-over-the-hump-Thursday (Feb-12th.) I know you'll understand, cuz you're wonderful like 'dat! Thank Youse muchly in advance.
Yours with stampingness, Mel
Meet the only section of my stamp room that's organized, hehehe. It's punch storage on an Ikea pot rack. There was no room in our new kitchen for our pot rack, so now it lives on top of this old dresser.
Handy to see all those punches and hopefully It'll spark some ideas since I want to use them more effectively. I keep any that don't match in the top drawer of the dresser---a little frou frou of me, hey? But perty is nice, no? ;o)
Other Punch Storage Ideas:
I used to keep my punches like this (in a drawer with non-slip liner) but now I'm saving the drawers for ugly bits.

I am always interested how others store their supplies in hopes of finding the perfect solution for my crafts and craft room. from todays blog, I looked back on your earlier organizational posts and came upon exactly what I had been looking for. I too have all 4 boxes of SU ink spots but didn't like how they came packaged. I saw you idea of putting 2 sets into SU background stamp clamshells. I just so happened to have 2 of these empty clambshells so I put all my ink spots in them. This is brilliant and perfect for a number of reasons! Thank you so much for this tip and all of the tips you so generously share.
ReplyDeleteoooh look at your punches!!! *greedy slurp- tongue hanging out!*
ReplyDeletehey - that's cool!!
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas and just love your craft room and the falling hearts are so cool.
ReplyDeleteWow, Mel. . .your room looks like it's taking shape. That wall is pretty and the soft and inviting colors of what I can see of your craft room is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love your punch storage! I wish I had enough space to spread my stuff around but mines are all stuffed in a drawer! Loving your organization so far!! Show us more!

That looks oh so organised, the whole background looks calm and sophisticated. Now mine looks the opposite!
ReplyDeleteI have my punches in a box in a cupboard. Not very organized and I worry about them getting damaged. So my dear hubby is going to make me an custom storage case to mount on my craft room wall. I'll have to take pictures when it's done... which could be awhile. LOL
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I gave you an award on my "little" blog. Come by and see what it is! http://fancycraftyme.blogspot.com/

Love your storage for punches Mel, and of course all the tips and links tp other great ideas.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a lot of punches as yet so it's not a big problem for me right now. Thank goodness.
I love this idea - I don't have that many punches, but they do look very nice on that dresser.
ReplyDeleteYour room lokks so neat, Mel!
