Help! I need a way to keep all my odd stamps neat that are not parts of sets but singles I have bought from this place & that. Any frugal ideas? I am thrifty and not looking to spend a lot. Thrifty and creative yes, but this is something I can't seem to figure outa big thank you to anyone who can help!
I just keep mine in the sterilite 6 qt containers organized by theme, like animals in one, love themed ones in another, or organize them by company, amuse, stampendous, magenta and so forth.

Yep..thats pretty much how I do it,except I use the Project cases from Office Depot.They are flat and about 1 1/2 " wide so the stamps lay flat and you can see them.
That is what I do now but it seems they are all just jumbled around in there and it drives me nuts--can't seem to find anything better--its nice to hear I am not the only one that keeps them in bins like that! :-D
I do "roundups" of like themed stamps in empty SU cases. Flowers, bugs/birds, leaves, animals, objects, etc. As I get more of a certain style, I will upsize to a larger SU case.

Friends are like the walls of a house. Sometimes they hold you up, sometimes you lean on them. But sometimes, it's enough to know they're just standing by.
I use the cardboard photo boxes from Mikes. I store stamps of like size together. I have a piece of cardstock cut to the size of each block taped to the outside of the box so I know which sizes are in each box. I have a notebook with all stamp images in it, so from that I can tell the size of the block...
I ordered the empty Stamp and Supply boxes from SU (like the ones their stamps come in) and also do the "roundup" by themes.
They don't seem to jumble around like some of the bigger storage containers do.

Stampin and Scrappin are Great Stress Busters!
I agree! I also like that the cases are easy to pick up and handle, unlike the large storage containers. I'm much more likely to put something away if it is easy to do!
