    This video is 7 years old as I watched it. I have been struggling to find stamp storage - I was always looking for the right stamp, forgetting where certain stamps were, and it was so much trouble to make a card gathering all the things I needed that I pretty well quit making cards. Luckily I never quit watching videos such as Jennifer's and when I ran across this one it was just like a light bulb. I used old file folders and cut them to size as dividers. Also sorted my coloured card stock the way she did. My small craft corner (in my bedroom) is SO MUCH MORE organized. The suggestions Jennifer gives for shortcuts or easier ways of doing things is SO HELPFUL. As this video was made in 2015, I doubt you will read this comment but if you do, thank you so much, Jennifer, for this video and for all the other ones.

    Jennifer, you're killing me with all these organizational tips. I had no idea I was so disorganized as an organized person. I have been putting your ideas in place and I have stopped creating to get it all done. That is the type A personality! Will be wonderful to finish up and start creating again. Great ideas and tips. Thanks.

    Every night when I receive your newest video it highlights my evening. Always great and informative. Thank You! My tip on staying organized is by keeping a medium size Dollar Store basket near my craft table .As I'm done with Dies or stamps etc I just pop it in there. Then when I'm finished for the day it's a whole lot easier to just pick through the basket and put everything away. Same for scrap paper i have a FOLGERS big plastic coffee container that I painted and it is multi-functional. One has the scraps, one is Misc. and the 3rd is for instruction booklets that come with anything related to my craft room. Thanks in advance for considering me in the give a way.

I do store stamps with their matching dies in the pockets so as to not forget they have dies. Thank you for helping me organize!

    Perfect timing on your organization video! this is exactly the type of organizing i'm looking for. Im just getting started in the paper craft world and don't want my dies/embossing folders/stamps getting out of hand as I start to make my collections. I can not function very well in a untidy craft room lol.
    Thanks so much for putting this great video together and sharing the products you used. I will be following suit!

    @stephaniegower5103 Před 9 lety +3

    I would definitely recommend this system. I implemented it last year and I use my stamps a lot more now because i am not distracted by the packaging. If i have dies that coordinate with stamps i put the thinlets in the back of the envelope so i have them altogether. Its so much clearer xx

    Hello Jennifer. I love your storage idea. Thank you so much for sharing. I discovered that Michaels sell the white inserts already cut. The recollections brand 5.5 x 7.5 and you get 100 in a pack. The pack is $7.99 but with a 50% off coupon, you can get 100 precut sheets for $4. Tfs. Marcia

    Jennifer, thank you so very much for sharing your organizational ideas, systems, tips, tricks, supplies and resources. You are my go-to-guru for everything related to storage, organization, card creation and classes. I know it takes a LOT of time and effort to make and share the videos and blog posts. I really don't know how you do it with your busy family - from toddlers to college students + a busy husband (lucky you, I understand he does most of the cooking! and lucky him - he has YOU!). I do appreciate the effort it takes and thank you from the bottom of my heart.

    • @905lovest
      @905lovest Před 7 lety

      Oh, Katrine, I'm in the same spot! I live in a condo and if I could, I'd add on to it for more craft storage! I've been working on organizing my stamps and dies, and am putting mine in binders, I had already started going in this way, and I think it will work well for me. I love finding ideas from Jennifer, and have never watched a video of hers that I didn't love...she is amazing! Best wishes for you in your organizing! I am DETERMINED to have a very organized craft room in a few months (I have major health challenges that do not allow me to work on this as much as I'd like--or when I do, I'm sidelined for awhile--just saying it will take me a little longer, that is all), and I CANNOT WAIT to start organizing in a very organized space again.
      I agree with Jennifer that the key is making sure your space STAYS organized, and I think that when I finish working on my stamps and dies (in a couple of days--I'm about 98% finished my cling and clear stamps plus thin dies), that I need to put together a container like this with all of the supplies I will need. I have put my matching dies in the same pocket with the stamps too, but I am using a thicker and stronger adhesive-backed magnet sheet product (bought from a local supplier, and they even cut it to my size specifications, and I found that the leftover strips were as handy as the sheets, because I used those for the small dies like a word die that goes with a stamp set, perfect! I have found that the magnetic sheets I first tried from a big-box craft store were not thick or strong enough, and what I found locally was much better quality and no more expensive, actually were cheaper. REALLY IMPORTANT to get adhesive-backed so they can easily and quickly attach to the back of the stamp sets), I also decided that I'd use velcro on the binder sheet pockets (mine have protective flaps in most sizes), so there's no issue of things falling out. I've worked out what works best for me, and how I want to be able to find things. Just as you will do for you. :) I bought it by the yard at a fabric supply store and got adhesive-backed again. I had to cut the small pieces myself, but it was MUCH cheaper. The process takes some time--I've enjoyed watching lots of Christmas movies as I've worked, which is enjoyable, and I also found that I realized some other ways to organize as I went on, so I have some tweaking to do later--I'm also getting ready for Christmas... :)
      I'm excited for you to have your craft room very organized!!! And I SO wish too that I could add on a larger room onto my condo, but in a high-rise, I don't think it will work... I've decided that I will give up other items in my condo to have more space for my craft supplies, I have invested in them and I am determined to keep them! I look forward to hear about your craft room!!!
      Right now I'm looking at how to store my inkpads, glitters, embossing powders, etc so that when I need the one at the very back of a drawer (isn't that always the way)--that I want to be able to SEE what is there better AND that I don't decimate the whole drawer and how I've organized them to get that one out. So I'm looking at various furniture options including some stronger second-hand solid wood pieces that I'd enjoy having in my craft room. It is somewhat expensive to organize, I didn't realize it, and I am on a lower income than most due to a disability, it's OK, it's what God has given me and I'm thankful for what I have--just that I have to be careful in my spending... So I'm still in the process of looking for some items. Having those plastic drawers I have personally found they are not sturdy enough to hold my metal punches, etc. So I am going to repurpose those in my closet where I have carpet and it doesn't matter if I take off the castors on the bottom... All to say that each person's situation is unique, yours is and mine is and so we need to take these fantastic ideas and make them work best for each of us.
      Best wishes to you in your organizing, and I too wish that Jennifer would make a housecall for you! Right now I'm surrounded by binders and can't wait to have them in place with everything else in my craft room! YOUR craft room is going to be amazing! It takes a good amount of time and planning, but much of the organizing of stamps/dies, etc can be done while you're talking to a friend on the phone or while watching a movie, etc at least that's what I've done at times...

    @kv3drichards1 Před 5 lety

    Thank you. Your suggestion is really helpful for me to save space in my craft room. I have my stamps and dies in hard DVD cases that is taking up a lot of room on my shelves. I ran out and before I bought more dvd cases I saw your video. Guess what?? I am going to re-do my storage with the plastic envelopes. Instead of having to have to search through all my cases even though the names are on the side I still have to search. And sometimes I just give up and grab something that I have in front of me. I think your storage solution will be the last time that I change my system up. Every time I get more die and stamps means more storage space. The envelopes will save a lot of room thank you so much.

  • @kirriesummers5219
    @kirriesummers5219 Před 2 lety +1

    Your system is sensible and efficient. I have so many old stampin' up stamps on wood in their cumbersome packages and can't imagine any system that works beyond my Ikea CD bookcases. Short of giving the stamps away or trying to scrape them off the wood blocks, do you have an efficient way to store that does not take up so much space? I must have at least 400 wood mounted stamp sets.
    I would truly love to incorporate your system into my craft room. Thank you for sharing your ideas snd your time with us. ❤️🇨🇦

I admire your professionalism you add to your cards. I hope one day my cards look as gorgeous as yours. Again thank you for sharing your talent. I’m off to make a storage box,wish me luck. Have you thought about making card kits and selling them as I’m often looking for them. I would love to purchase them from you....

    @marydiehm9354 Před 9 lety

    Thank you for taking the time to put all that information together for us! This is really helpful! Don't know if it would benefit you but thought I would share with you; I bought magnetic vent covers from Menards (a home improvement store..also where my husband works) and cut them to fit cd cases for my dies. I love that they don't move. When I create, I make a mess and I am less likely to loose any small detail die. Since you shared ideas
    thought i would share something with you!

    • @jennifermcguireink

    • @lindahyden
      @lindahyden Před 9 lety

      Linda Hyden One quick question, the price difference between the Avery Elle and the Simon Says stamp pocket is minimal but with one you get 25 and the other 50. I know you use the Avery Elle (25) but is there a huge difference in quality between them, because you get significantly more pockets in the Simon Says version; thanks for sharing

    I use the find it brand of tins to store stuff. Well one of the $3-$5 ones from Walmart. Going to get the $10-$12 dollar one when I get the chance. Sure you can't organize them the same way but it you plan on traveling ( or moving eventually like I do someday ) they are pretty good.

    yes I Love your tips on organization. Now what happens when you actually insert all of your dies and stamps, it will get bulky, You are going to need a larger container to store them all..... I am going to use your tip. My stamps and dies are all in one drawer, they are organize to a point. It's just when I need either one I have to pull out that drawer and search. So your tip is helpful. Thank you.....

    Years ago I bought a guillotine paper cutter that can cut up to 2" of paper at a time, and it was so worth it. I think I paid about $120 for it and now you can get them for under $100. I've even used it to cut off the spines of 'perfect' bound books so that I could ring-bind or coil-bind them instead.

    I have the same type of thing Jennifer . . . only mine is a shoebox . . . and it's not quite as organised, but it is all in the same place, along with my labelling machine. I must get some proper storage and section it off, like you. Thank you! Hazel xx

    Nice video. I like to use plastic kitchen cutting mats from the dollar store (Dollar tree - only $1 per package of 2). They come in clear and colors. I use them for several different applications. I originally got them for making firm bottoms and sides for my satchel purse collection. I hate floppy satchels. Also, used as DIY dashboards in my planners & BuJos. Also as DIY 6" ruler for pocket in back of planner. You could try these cutting mats as cheap dividers.

    I love the way you organize everything. I have taken lots of ideas for my craft room. However i have always had a question. you should have tons of stamps sets and die sets, even if they are organized. How do you remember all the different things you have?.. in example.. if you want to create a card with a dog.... do you have any index... any journal or something where you can quickly check all the different stamps you have related to dogs?

    Jennifer, do you show a layout for cutting the folders into dividers somewhere in a video? I just received 26 folders but want to cut them as economically as possible. I LOVE your organization hints and have started applying several of your ideas. You are absolutely right when you say that your creativity and productivity increase with your organization. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Hi Jennifer. I love your ALL of your ideas. I have one question about your video. When you take your cardstock to Kinkos, do you "pencil" all of the sheets of cardstock you want cut? Or...Do you pencil a master and they cut all of your cards to that size? Also, do you bring in your own cardstock?

    Jennifer, I know this may seem like a silly request, but... I have the plastic folders you have suggested for dividers, however, I would really appreciate it if you might find time in one of your upcoming video's to show us all how you cut those folders up to create the dividers. I'm sure I can probably figure it out, but before I destroy the folders doing so, it would sure be nice to see you do it - pretty please (she smiles).

    • @deb52500

      I think this would be a great idea! I have watched the videos a few times but wondering how you dissect the folders to work in the stamp and die holders.

  • @maggiebaxter610
    @maggiebaxter610 Před 9 lety

    As always Jennifer you are such an inspiration. Your videos are always so clear and concise and your voice very relaxing for us (you may not feel that way but you definitely sound that way!!). I like keeping things tidy as well but have kept switching my organization to find exactly what works for me. The storage pockets are absolutely super and perfect for my needs. 1 Question: Do you still have any wood-mounted background stamps? If so, do you leave them on the wood or have you removed the wood entirely? Thanks for sharing such wonderful and innovative videos!!

    Hi Jennifer! I SO love organizational stuff! Last year when I first saw your videos on organizing your stamps/dies/etc I took the plunge and re-organized EVERYTHING in my studio and I have been SO happy with it! Best thing I ever did! I a question though. Do you ever have problems getting your labels to stay stuck to your dividers/envelopes? I find that some of mine peel up on the edges and that is really irritating after all my effort tidying things away.

    • @jennifermcguireink
      @jennifermcguireink  Před 9 lety +1

      Robyn G no i haven't. they stay VERY put. what labels are you using?

    • @RHG412
      @RHG412 Před 9 lety

      I use a Dymo LetraTag. Maybe it's just a difference in the adhesives they use on their label tapes? May have to change label makers?

I have a silly question...what do you use to cut up the folders for the dividers?? I am not the straightest cutter with the scissors! LOL Thank you again! Hugs!

    How do you cut your plastic folders to size when making dividers? I know you've mentioned you use the We R Memory Keepers corner chompers, but what about the straight sides and top/bottom cuts? Do you use scissors or an x-acto knife?

    I have trouble locating the stamp set that I want. I own a lot of SU stamps and sometimes spend hours looking for the set I remember to have the sentiment or image I want. I have friends at CTMH that use Evernote to organize & locate their sets as it has a searchable database. How do you organize the stamps to find the right sentiment or image? I also sometimes buy the same die twice because I've forgotten that I already own it. It seems like a searchable database would solve this but I haven't come up with a system yet. Would appreciate your thoughts & suggestions. I do store my other than SU stamps with your system, as well as my dies.

    Lawn Fawn has their mini sets that are about 2x4, how do you store yours? I also have some michaels dollar ones that are (about) 2 x 2 but I assume that I can use the same as the Lawn Fawn mini stamps, I just don't know what to use to store those.
    I really enjoy your organization, thanks for sharing it!
