I even started saving some of the hard plastic on some packages, like the front of doll packaging and I used the happy planner hole punch to stick it in my planner and I plan to stick my stamps on there so I have them when I need them.
I really love the color coded system for storing your stamps. Better then making plastic dividers and much easier to keep up with organization. Plus it’s pretty to look at it! Thanks for sharing ❤️
I love how you organized and labeled your stamps. I have been looking for a system that I think will work for me and this is it! You even solved the dilemma of what to do with stamp sets that are different sizes. I thought I was going to have to buy many sizes of the clear envelopes to make them all fit. But, I hesitated on buying any because I wanted everything to look uniform. So thanks for the video!
I've got stamp organization on my winter to-do list (a snowy day project). I love Target's clear bins. I found some comparable in quality and bit less costly at TJ Maxx. Thank You so much for sharing with us.
ScrappyWife I’m going to use the system also but I think I would put the labels on the paper. To me because paper is cheaper than The storage envelopes if you need to change something down the line we could take the piece of paper cut the top off and still have usable paper or relabel it instead of having to pitch the story to envelope because the label stock but some labels come off easy so I don’t know it’s just something I’ve been thinking about but thanks for the tip I am a big color coordinator and this help me to decide to move forward
I love the colored cardstock idea. I have pretty much all my stamps in pockets like that, but all with white cardstock. The way I have them subdivided/categorized, it works fine for me. I also have dividers for each section/category of stamps that I made from cardstock, laminated, & added a label to. That way, I don't have to flip through my (ahem) rather substantial stamp collection. For my larger stamp sets (like 6x8"), I generally make my own pockets with a regular page protector & my Fuse tool. I'm generally able to get away with just having to fuse one side of the pocket, and cut it down to fit. Occasionally on those I'll have to reinforce the top of the side seam I create with a piece of packing tape wrapped around the side of the pocket so the fused seam doesn't come apart, but that's OK. For a few 4x8" sets that I really can't cut up, I just let them hang out of the top of the pocket. A tip for storing coordinating dies in the back of the pocket is to make/use an envelope. I have the We R Memory Keepers 1-2-3 Punch Board, and so just make small envelopes to hold the dies. But, if you don't have such a tool, a regular A2 size envelope would work as well and fit fine in the pockets. That way, the dies are contained, rather than rattling around loose at the bottom of the pocket, & I can just pull out the envelope when I need the die(s). Thank you so much for sharing this, Elisa! I think the only thing more fun than organizing is watching other people do it. LOL Take care, & have a wonderful day! :)
This just showed up on my feed, and of course always trying to find better ways for storage, as well as to help me remember to use my things! Next to work on after this is my punches since the drawers I have them in are falling apart. Thanks for sharing
@@ScrappyWife I’ve thought of that, but so much stuff (which I need to purge and reorganize) that I have no wall room. 🤪😁. Might have to recruit hubs for more storage builds
I've seen a number of other stamp organization videos - none of the systems I liked. So I almost didn't watch your's. SO glad I did! Love this! Definitely going with this! Thank you so much for sharing your great organization!
I am starting to do this. (I use the IKEA white bins which I love, they are about $4.50 each). I like your idea of the color coding and may use that. Thanks!
ScrappyWife - I have some of the Elle clear pockets already, but.... I think I need more. Lol. Glad to know BTW4G carries them now. I was using the stripped small 3 ring notebooks from her shop - but I had too many stamps (eeek). So, I think I will switch to this system bc the bins would hold more!!
Thanks so much for the inspiration. Right now my stamp sets are in a large mailing envelope from something I ordered. This will be a great idea when I start setting up my new creative (happy) space in my guest bedroom.
I don't have any reason to know the company names, but using the colors to show categories would be so helpful! Alphabets, sentiments, flowers and foliage, etc. Also, maybe tucking stamps I haven't tried yet in back (or front) to remind me to try them. Great video, very helpful! 👍
Great video. To save wasting tape on the label maker print all titles at the same time using extra spaces between each title. Then cut them down using scissors or a trimmer.
I started watching this video at about 1:22 pm, according to my watching history. I already store my stamps in Avery Elle pockets and kitchen organization bins. I did get a few new tips from you, but as soon as you started to talk about faith-based stamps and mentioned By the Well 4God(which I had not heard of before,) I fell down a rabbit hole discovering more about that company(BTW4G) and it is now after 2:30 pm. Bought the "Heart at Rest" devotional kit plus two stamp sets and am now following you on youtube, plus stalking Etsy for more BTW4G products!
I just organized mine today cause I was gifted TONS of wooden stamps. I have a 10 drawer cart and put them in those drawers by category. I don’t have many clear stamps yet.
Thanks for such a great video. Love all the details provide. I have a question regarding the label maker. Whenever I print anything, I always have a good amount of space at the end that gets cut off and is wasteful. I noticed you didn’t have that, just a tiny bit in the beginning of the label. Would you happen to know if there’s a setting for that?
Thanks for this video!! Curious, why put the label and cutout on the outside of the plastic sleeve? Seems like putting on the inside would keep the labels protected and cleaner. You'd still know which stamps went were when crafting and having them all over the place. Also, I LOVE that you used colors as your "indexes". Smart. So smart!
I put the label on the outside, because it gets caught in the stamps on the inside. Like when I am sliding the stamp set in an out, it tends to get caught.
I wanted to say I am into Cardmaking & Papercraft Magazine I have a lot of stamps I have them in a big tote I have them written on on old file folders bright paper on the & store them in ziplock bags to keep them all together by Birthday & Christmas & build a Scene Stamps & others I am Trying to think of ways that are simple I thought of taking a box that has color boxes for pictures but cut around the stamp cling & put them in it that way help me think of ways that doesn't cost a lot of money but make it so that I still have them within reach. thanks
As a blogger/UA-cam creator it is pretty important for me. Also, I notice that different companies have different styles, so I tend to think of what company/designer I want to go with first.
ScrappyWife thanks. Just finished organizing all my acrylic stamps in Avery Elle envelopes. Did my all my metal dies first. I feel like it was a major accomplishment and my shelves look so neat and organized.
I organize by theme instead of by company. I can better remember that I have a journaling stamp by Dylusions than a Dylusions journaling stamp. But that's just me! 😄
I love this system but our brains think in categories, such as alphas, faith, garden, animals, and so on. Not by company name but like you said, your focus is a little different. I might be more apt to do my CATEGORIES in separate colors, and even split up the company-specific stamps if they apply to more than one category. IMHO Thanks for the ideas!
I even started saving some of the hard plastic on some packages, like the front of doll packaging and I used the happy planner hole punch to stick it in my planner and I plan to stick my stamps on there so I have them when I need them.
Great idea for stencils and dies too.
Yes, those are great to store this way as well!
I love adding the colored paper, great addition to the organization !!
Thanks!
love this idea
Thanks! It is working well for me!
Ive never seen anyone add paper inside the pouches but i love the idea of color coordinated storage! Great thinking!
Thanks!
Great reorganization!
Thank you Jillian!
I’m just about to reorganise my stamps. I love your coloured card idea. Thank you so much. ❤️🇦🇺
Wonderful!
Great tip to color code the different companies! TFS!
💕
Color coding 😍 Love it! Working through a reorganization of my craftroom, thanks for sharing!
Awesome, have fun organizing!
I really love the color coded system for storing your stamps. Better then making plastic dividers and much easier to keep up with organization. Plus it’s pretty to look at it! Thanks for sharing ❤️
I totally agree! And you are welcome!
loved this video, thanks for sharing. All us crafters struggle with storage and i think this is a fab way to store stamps.
Thanks! I am loving it so far!
Great timing... just looking at my stamps, trying to figure out how to organize them! Thanks!
You are welcome!
love the colored paper!! This is my next organization project. TFS!!!
Have fun!

I had that same dilemma! I am so glad I decided to keep all the storage pockets the same size!
Thank You for sharing. I love the idea with the colored paper, I don’t think I’ve ever seen that used before.
It’s so bright and I am loving it!
I've got stamp organization on my winter to-do list (a snowy day project). I love Target's clear bins. I found some comparable in quality and bit less costly at TJ Maxx. Thank You so much for sharing with us.
Organization is a continuous action for me...it is so soothing!
Love the colored paper background idea! So going to use that because I usually remember the company name more than the set name. Thank you for sharing
Me too! Isn’t that funny how only certain bits stay in our brains?
ScrappyWife I’m going to use the system also but I think I would put the labels on the paper. To me because paper is cheaper than The storage envelopes if you need to change something down the line we could take the piece of paper cut the top off and still have usable paper or relabel it instead of having to pitch the story to envelope because the label stock but some labels come off easy so I don’t know it’s just something I’ve been thinking about but thanks for the tip I am a big color coordinator and this help me to decide to move forward
I really like the color coding idea too. Much faster to find things by color than to have to flip through a bunch of tabs.
Thanks for sharing. I will have to keep this in mind when I want to organize my stamps.
Awesome!

Punches are tricky because they are so heavy! I have seen a lot of people have success with putting them on towel bars on their walls.
@@ScrappyWife I’ve thought of that, but so much stuff (which I need to purge and reorganize) that I have no wall room. 🤪😁. Might have to recruit hubs for more storage builds
I have had stamps fall out of those bags, so I ordered 5x8 zip lock bags from Amazon. The sets fit perfectly.
Once you tuck in the top flap, it doesn't fall out which works well!
I've seen a number of other stamp organization videos - none of the systems I liked. So I almost didn't watch your's. SO glad I did! Love this! Definitely going with this! Thank you so much for sharing your great organization!
Awesome, hope it was helpful!
I like colour backing idea may do that for categories ypu could also stamp the design on the colour card so you can easily see where stamps go back
Yes, good tip!
I love your set up for stamp sets. Mine are organized but I don’t like my set up as well so I think I will re do them as you’ve done.
Please do!
Love being organized. Thanks for the great ideas!
Organization might be my love language 😂
I always appreciate your storage solution videos as they are very well thought out and you give lots of tips and helpful information. TFS!
Yay, glad they are helpful!
Just discovered you. I prefer clear storage too. Can't wait to check your other videos on storing specific craft supplies: stickers and dies are next.
Hope you enjoy checking them all out!
I am starting to do this. (I use the IKEA white bins which I love, they are about $4.50 each). I like your idea of the color coding and may use that. Thanks!
The white bins are great as well!
Brilliant idea thank you ❤
So glad that you like it :)
Great ideas! The cost to do this is great and I love the color coordinating you did! Those plastic bins hold a lot of stamps too! Thanks for sharing!
I was super pleased with the sturdiness and cost of the bins!

Perfect! I want to use pull out bins and I like your color coded idea! TYFS! ❤️🦋💜
Go for it!
I love all your budget friendly storage ideas.
I hope u you keep them coming.

Thanks for watching!! Organizing is my jam, so I’ll try to think of other videos I can do!
I like this idea.
Thanks!
Thanks a lot .. I just moving to my new home and I'll have my craft room. Awesome and fun ideas to organize everything ... thanks !
Have fun planning your new crafty space!
looks much neater thanks for sharing

Love the idea of the thinner bin to store the larger sets, I was struggling with that!!
It was a happy accident actually...bought it for super small sets, but works great for larger ones!
Thank you for all your great organizing videos Elisa❤️❤️❤️
Glad you like them!
Tyfs your organization ideas.

Wow thanks for sharing you have a lot of stamps I’m a beginner. 🤗
My collection has grown rather quickly 😬
Thank you 😊 this did helped me a lot 💗
Yay, glad it helped!
I have white cardstock in mine lol. Boring! I love this ! Such a great idea! Tfs!

I usually end up with some waste at the end as well that I trim off. I don't think there is a way to change that on the settings 😔
Looks great! I use these envelopes, but my bins are a bit flimsy. Going to look in to these at Target!
I think they are a pretty good deal!

The storage bins from Target are much cheaper than the ones I was using from Amazon. Thanks again! 💜
Woohoo, yay for deals!
Ive got way to many stamps for bins i started keeping mine in 3 ring binders in different types of page protectors
Glad you have a system that works for you!
I luv ur idea.. U speak so fast.. I can't tell what site u get ur stamps from...
Most of my stamps are from a company called By the Well 4 God. You can find them on etsy!
Great video! Thank you so much for this. I struggle with the storage. What camera are you using. I am in the market for a new one
I am using my iPhone X
how can you store wooden stamps? I would love some ideas.
No great ideas here, as I only have a very few that I mostly use for display purposes.
Ok thanks, just thought I would ask.
I wanted to say I am into Cardmaking & Papercraft Magazine I have a lot of stamps I have them in a big tote I have them written on on old file folders bright paper on the & store them in ziplock bags to keep them all together by Birthday & Christmas & build a Scene Stamps & others I am Trying to think of ways that are simple I thought of taking a box that has color boxes for pictures but cut around the stamp cling & put them in it that way help me think of ways that doesn't cost a lot of money but make it so that I still have them within reach. thanks
Those storage boxes for photos are great options as well, but that is a lot of bulk if you start to collect lots of stamps.
Shouldn't those first 2 in the alphas have green back?😊
Hmmmm, not sure.
Big job, but looks like it was worth doing. Looks good. =)
Totally worth it💕
Awesome. =)
I’m currently working on this system for my DVDs 🙂👍
How to used that? I’m new for it.
These are clear stamps that you mount on an acrylic block before you do the actual stamping. They take up much less room than wooden stamp blocks.
What's the benefit of colour coding by company?
As a blogger/UA-cam creator it is pretty important for me. Also, I notice that different companies have different styles, so I tend to think of what company/designer I want to go with first.
It might be better to stick the logo and the label on the card stock inside the package so they don't fall off and your packs don't stick together.
Good tip!
How about small stamps??
I keep them in their original package and loop those through a binder ring.
ScrappyWife thanks. Just finished organizing all my acrylic stamps in Avery Elle envelopes. Did my all my metal dies first. I feel like it was a major accomplishment and my shelves look so neat and organized.
I organize by theme instead of by company. I can better remember that I have a journaling stamp by Dylusions than a Dylusions journaling stamp. But that's just me! 😄

Did you say your stamps is from by the well of God or will?? Thanks
By the Well 4 God - it is linked in the video notes!
@@ScrappyWife , in the notes where, please?
What was the stamp company? Did you say by the will for God?
