I just got some of the stamps that come w/out the wood block while on vacation. I opened them tonight & there are a lot of pieces. Just wondering how you store them? If you have pictures that would be great too. TIA!
I have been putting mine in the Darice type bead containers- one for each set of stamps and then they go into a draw - they seem to be working out well - the only ones as of right now that are living in a box are the 3 1/4" size - I have seen people using the little draw units and the stackable craft units..there are so many options you just have to find the one that works best for you! HTH
I've put the smaller ones in the smallest of SU's stamp boxes (I've unmounted everything) and then put those and the wood-stamps into one of SU's turquoise metal "punch kit" tins with the clear window on the top.

I bought my first set of JustRite stamps yesterday at a Craft Show in Manchester - (as far as I am aware this was the UK launch of them) , so this thread is quite timely for me.
Initially I was just going to store them in a A4 size plastic box ( the sort you can keep background papers in ) but I be looking to see what else is suggested.
That is what I did in the beginning - they stacked nicely in a draw unit that I was using - but they changed to form fitting plastic packaging and once you cut at least 2 of the sides open to get the stamps out - you really can't store them back unless you keep taping them in- than you risk ripping the stamps when removing them - so I went to the circle bead units that were suggested on another thread!
I ended up taking mine (w/ double sided tape) to the inside of the booklet like thing they came in - then I put them inside clear sheet protectors like the ones you put in binders. They don't take up much room that way.
I don't use mine nearly as much as I would like too. I have them in their original containers. I think I need something more accessible. I have been thinking about baseball trading card/picture holders for binders as I am thinking about that sort of system anyway.

I started at the opposite end of the arena to where the Just Rite Stamps where so by the time I'd got there I'd had to put the reins on a bit and only bought one set. I got the "Merrry Little Christmas Set".
Assuming stamping with them goes well I hope to get quite a few more sets from the main Hobby show in Birmingham. Are you going to be going to that one as well?
Jaclyn, I hope you got a wood stamper and am having fun with your Just Rite stamps. I store mine in 2 stackable craft units from Target. Since I have 6 different stamper sizes this works great for me. I have snapped them together to make 1 unit and each section holds the wood stamper, the stamps and the set cover. As I add different sizes, I will add another unit. I store this on the floor next to my desk for easy access. I like having all the right sized stamps stored with each size stamper -it makes it easy for me!
I initially ordered directly from JRS, but since have placed two orders with the discounted on-line shop. They both offer great service and fast shipping. I love all my JRS sets. They are great for personalizing cards, gifts, etc.
A great $9.95 sale on this set at Just Rite.
You piqued my interest.
I hadn't heard of them
(gasp, I know!)
They look really cool....
All the interchangebale parts.
great sale price
You'll have to let us know how well they stamp & work.
They look like regular rubber and not clear polymer.
I'd not store them on anythign metal.
Summer Murigan on Rosesonpaper.com
sells binder sheets to store your woodless stamps on.
I love her and her items.
FAST shipping..
Also Gina K Designs sells boxes and the binder pages seperatly for the same purpose.
A smaller size to fit her sets. Her newer sets al come with a page to store them properly as well.
They fit in the box you purchase from her and it locks closed.,.
Really helpful and see thru so you find what u r looking for faster!
I bought a kids school binder when picking up back to school supplies.
I then bought the 8.5 x 11 pages from Summer at Rosesonpaper.com and store lots of mine in there. ( not all though.. I have 3 binders...) It zips up so nothing falls out and gets lost as well.
Good luck Gals.

I store mine in the Cuttlebug binder sheets. They fit inside the slots that are already on there to hold the cuttlebug folders/dies, etc. So far so good!

I just got my first sets of JustRite too and struggled with this same problem. But, I was at a Dollar Store and saw clear, square, hinged lid plastic containers. So, I bought a few ($1 each!) and sorted by size. So, everything for that size is in one container. Then I put alphabets in another. So far...it works!
His name is Wilbar. He's a polar bear at the Wilhelma Zoo in Stuttgart, Germany. His name is a combination of Wilhelma for the zoo and Bar which is bear in German. In the spelling, there should be two dots over the a in Bar. This picture is a few years old. He wouldn't fit in the basket now!
