i have tried several ways of storing my acrylic stamps. i've tried leaving them in their original packages, but different manufacturers have different packaging, so that was a bit messy. then i tried taking them out of the original packages and putting them all together in a tupperware container, but i kept forgetting to look through them. then i tried them in notebooks on transparencies, but that was cumbersome.
i should tell you that i love to treasure hunt for cool old stuff. one of my favorite places to go is the Habitat ReStore. the last time i was there i found this amazing old 8-pane window. the paint was chipping off which made it even more awesome. so i brought it home, not sure what i was going to do with it.
i had an aha! moment last week and i decided to use it to store my acrylic stamps! it is so perfect! i love being able to see what i have at a glance, and they stay stuck perfectly.
(sorry about the glare of the flash, but it gets dark so early and i had to take the photo inside.)
how do you store your acrylic stamps?

this is SUCH a good idea! I've been struggling with how to store mine, they're pretty much in a pile right now.
WOWOW! What an awesome idea. Right now, I don't have that many so they are fine in a basket. Did you remove them from the plastic and just stick each one to the window? I may have to keep my eyes open for a smaller window...or start buying more stamps! LOL =D
Love it! You crafty genius. Can't wait to scrap with you again SOON!!!!!!
I'm still trying to figure out how to store mine - love this idea!
You have such wonderful projects here on your blog!
Awesome... I love it... I don't have room for something like that... too bad real windows would get too hot and ruin the stamps.
Oh my! I think you're a super genius! I LOVE it!
I saw your post at studio calico. I love this idea. It looks like on some you had covers for them, right?
