Hi! When I started stamping, I bought ALL the old style pads from someone. How do you store these? For a year I have had them upside down in a box and it bugs me to go thru everytime I stamp.
I think this is brilliant and can't wait to make one!!! Everyone should know about these!!! If they don't fit the old style, I don't see why you couldn't adjust them just a bit to fit. I am thinking that they older style is smaller so should fit with a little extra space.

i just wanted to let you know that your link isnt working :confused:
I do store my old pads upside down. I have written the color name with a Sharpie on the end so I can see the color names when the pads are stacked up. It's easy to just pull out the pad I need/want.
Oh, there is a wonderful way to store the old style pads (I just wish there was an equivalent for the new style pads).
Check out the toolbox aisle at Home Depot. It was a gray and yellow colored toolbox, with a translucent cover. You can stack the pads, upside down in the little compartments. I used a sharpie to put the color names on the edges of the pads and stamped a little sample of the color on an adhesive label.
It holds all 48 pads, with a little extra room at the top. I wish I could remember the name of the company that makes these toolboxes. It only cost about $10.
ok i had the old style pads which i sold when the new ones cane out. i used a tool box typer thing from home depot. i only had to modify it by trimming the groove that the divider sits in was super easy used exacto knife and shaved it sort of.

I finally lOVE my stamp pad storage. I actually have 2 "turn style" pad holders that I had made from someone at a stamp convention. They were good but I wanted to find a way to keep most of my stamp pads together regardless of the size.
This is a link to the current cassette holders that I use and LOVE. It is actually two of them stacked and I bought them used on Ebay.
