 Hi everybody it's Sam again I'm back with another how I organise video so this is how I organise my stumps and dyes. So these three shelves are dedicated all to my stamps. Now I don't keep any of my stamps in any of the original packaging. I've done that before in the year over the years and I used to have them in dedicated cases. Every pretty much every brand has their own dye and stamp storage cases and I had them and some of them are quite pricey but I did like them and they're great for for me they were great for a certain amount of time and then once my collection started to evolve I just had stuff all over the place and as soon as I started stripping all the packaging off of everything it made a massive difference. I like now that I can grab one of these tubs and that for example flowers in nature so it's flowers in nature and I've new home a little bit of the back there that is every flower and tree scene dye and stamp that I have it's in that section that's it I don't have to go rooting through other cupboards or pulling out other kind of cases and stuff that is everything now if they have a coordinating dye set I do keep the dye set in with this as well because I figure you're going to want the dye if you're using the stamp if you keep the dye separate then I think sometimes I would I'd forget and I'd end up fussy cutting it or just yeah I'm finding another way to cut it but anyway I just like that I can just take that over onto my desk and sit there and just flick through and feel inspired so what I will do in the description box of this video is I will list all of the categories that I use so for example this one here I've got planning children travel love babies and Halloween really random order but it's there and then at the back you'll see these are just some stamping up red rubber that I I like and I don't want to get rid of but I purchased this very thick perspex and they all stick onto the perspex and I just keep them at the back there again I can see them you know they're all very visible I guess I could probably break them down into the categories as well because there's a few floral ones there for example the tubs that I purchased from amazon you get five four twelve ninety nine I think it was these ones not only do they fit all of the pockets that I have perfectly but they also fit the four of them really nicely on each of these shelves it's the billy shelf from Ikea what I'll do is I'll take a photo and I'll pop it in the video so you can just see it you know in all three shelves rather than just through the video like this the pockets that I use are again from amazon they're just clear pockets and then I label all of them with my label and machine again I'll list all of that stuff in the description box below and I'll also link another video that I have where I actually show you you know how I store my stamps and I do the labeling and everything I won't be doing that today this is really just to do these little focus videos on just one area of my craft room it seems to be helping a lot of people I also just put a sheet of copy paper in there as well just so I can see the stamps really nicely against that this tub here is my made to surprise basket I just need to pop a label on that one but that's all the stamps and any coordinating dies for my own collection I've also got some embossing folders up here they're not really stored in any kind of fancy way I will end up doing something better with them I do label them you can see there some of them are labeled but they fit really nicely in that one so if I do end up getting well I will I'll end up getting more stamps I can transfer this one into stamps as well but this is the only area I'll ever give my stamp so when it does start to get full that then is my time to kind of look through it my mum will come and have a nose and end up taking some anyway but I will also donate and sell some people will still buy it you know without the original packaging on ebay and other kind of selling sites these dividers that I use here is just sheets of copy paper laminated and I'll give you the measurements of those in the description box below but it's just really straightforward I did have multicolored ones I didn't like it but I think what I will end up doing is I'm going to change this to some bright pink maybe yeah it could definitely have a bit of colour here I think so I'm just going to spin the camera around and show you my dies okay so these are the three tubs that I have for my dies along with these two taller A4 files for me to pop my bigger dies so you'll see here I've got for example there is a Simply Made Crafts hexagon clutch bag and it's on the larger sheets so that's where I keep all of those the magnetic sheets that I like to use are the 0.75mm and then I usually stick them onto a piece of 300gsm cardstock that way I find that they're really strong and it keeps the price kind of reasonable because as soon as you start going thicker with the magnetic sheets past that 0.75mm I find the price is just absolutely rocket you can go obviously lower so like the 0.5mm and so on but that is very flimsy it's more magnets for making you know them on your fridge and more DIY kind of things but again if you put that on like a greyboard which some people do but if you start using a lot of greyboard again it's going to start ending up quite expensive really so again this is just the one that I chose to use and it's how I you know and I enjoy this setup again I've got all my categories there under the sea kinetic cards scene building and then buildings and objects I've got butterflies Christmas Christmas is actually very small hobbies romance and yeah romantic love dies children and babies this is probably the one that I go to the most I've got circles squares ovals rectangles and then I've got words numbers alphabet frames and tags border and edge dies bunting dies and then here again I've got flower in nature topper dies birthday dies animals whimsical and shapes shapes should probably go behind here actually so I may well move that so again it's pretty basic but it works really really well for me and I've got them all in that one area and I know that there's no coordinating dies here so these dies are all on their own anything that coordinates with a stamp is behind the stamps you know in those tubs that I showed you before all the same dividers the same size pockets and labeled exactly the same way and you can see there's one of them there so that's it it's once it took me a while to do the initial changeover from having lots of stuff in its own packaging in its own cases it did take me a while but now I have it in this system it's so easy as soon as I buy something I take all of the original packaging off do keep some of the packaging if it's got directions on or just maybe like a step on how you should cut like a layered start a die set for example then I will keep that and pop it in the same pocket and then I just grab my labella pop the label on I have all of these stored all these spare pockets and spare sheets I actually buy the magnetic sheets as an A4 size and then I cut it in half on my guillotine again I think that works out cheaper I'll share the links to the ones that I buy again in the description box but do shock around you know you may well be able to get them somewhere else that you might know of a bit cheaper again those same size tubs just for me it's just I need stuff organized I need to to see it also and I just want everything in the same size I want to be able to you know know when I'm going to take some circle dies that's all my circle dies there there's none anywhere else same with my kind of themed dies and stuff so anyway I'm probably rambling on that's pretty much it I'll link the categories magnetic street sheets the pockets the labella the tubs everything you see I will let I will list in the description box below this one's the one that I get asked about the most is how I store my stamps and dies but do check out that other stamp storage setup video whatever I've called it because I do go in more detail with the labella and everything for that one and again I'll list those pockets there as well some of you I know I've already seen that one because you've been commenting recently so yeah there you have it so that is how I store my stamps and dies I've got a few more how I organize videos probably maybe five more and then I'm going to be finishing with my craft room tool so thanks for watching I really do appreciate it and I'll be back again very soon bye
