WOYWW 103

Firstly I am so sorry that I did not get round to commenting
on anyones blog last week
I had one of the weeks were there was not enough hours to do everything
But things are looking better this week
as come Friday at 4.30pm I have a week and day off
So plan lots of crafting and visiting

I am sure you have all come hoping to see what was hiding under my desk
last week - but you are out of luck as I am still working on nearly done though
So I thought I would show you my new stamp storage

 I had some of these cases in my loft as we use them for filing
but you can also buy them from good stationary shops
 I have laminated A4 sheets with coloured pictures of the stamps
and on the reserve is a black white image so I can see if any stamps are missing
The case hold two sheets one on each side
I still need to organise and file and label
I am finding this much better than my old storage
as things were to squashed and I damaged a couple of my stamps

Have a great Wednesday
Remember next week is WOYWW anniversary PIF
and in seven months time it will be Christmas Day!

Now I have bored you enough pop over to Julias
and see an amazing assortment of desks and crafts

See you next week

Good Lord, that is a labour of love type storage, double images and one of them coloured - am soooo impressed!

That is a wonderful idea, but way more work than I can do. Quite a labor of love there!

Great idea. I started unmounting my wood stamps and storing them in DVD cases. I have so much more room now!

Stamps seem to have the most varied storage when you look round other people's desk. It is always fascinating to see what others have done. Have a good week.

I have some of those plastic files, what a good idea to use them for stamps, I might do that, as I was thinking of a way to 'see' them rather than rumage into my plastic box...the one I want is always at the bottom! Happy WOYWW
