If you remember the first Glory {Art} Rewind post for this year, you saw that I used this alphabet on my art marks page. If you missed that post, click here. What I didn't mention in that post is that storing these alphabets is a real pain. I know some people just keep them stuck together in a block. But for me, that was an awful solution. I was always having to undo the block to get the letters I needed which were inevitably in the middle of the block. I have had these for quite some time but rarely used them because of the storage issue and trying to find the letter I wanted to use. But I love these stamps. They are so perfect when stamped.
So, this past weekend I was on a mission to find a storage solution so that I can use these stamps more this year. Well, I found it! It's a double-sided carrier that I found at Hobby Lobby. I used my 40% off coupon, and it turned out to be the perfect storage for these alpha stamps.
There are 46 fixed compartments, and once I put in each letter, number, and symbol, I only have 4 compartments left open. Perfect! I labeled each compartment so it's quick to grab what I want and put the letters away too. This carrier has a handle and stands on end to store. I put it on the floor next to my table, and it is working perfectly!
So, if you have these stamps, how do you store them? They are great stamps if you have a storage solution you like. Glad I finally found the option I love! Have a blessed day!

Its funny how God works, I was just saying yesterday I love my different clickable sets but it drives me crazy how to store them, UGH!! And like you they are just a heaping mess, I cant wait to get to HL & find a case like this so I can organize mine. Thanks for being an answer to a small & silly prayer.
Strange’s, SO very glad to know I am not the only one that hated storing these thus never used them. And so thankful your prayer was answered by my post. I almost didn’t share as I don’t know many people that use these stamps. God knew you needed to see this. Yeah God! Hope you find the box at Hobby Lobby. If not, I am pretty sure you can just ordered it from them online. Blessings,
Perfect idea! I just got back from H.L. with my case in hand. Thanks! I'd make one comment - my H.L. didn't have the double-sided one in stock in the craft aisles. I asked about it and the sweet clerk suggested I check by the notions area in the sewing aisle. Sure enough! I found them. So if you don't locate one where you think they should be, check the sewing section.
