Stack & Store Caddy - by Stampin' Up!

What do you do with all those buttons, brads, and other small items that can so easily get lost?

The Stack & Store Caddy (#109127) for only $34.95, of course!

The Stack & Store caddy is the perfect way to store your small embellishments.  It takes up very little room, yet holds so much.  It turns completely around so you can easily find anything you’re looking for.  Stores your buttons, brads, and anything packaged in the Stampin’ Store containers (contents not included).
■ Stores 24 large containers or 48 small containers
■ Made of strong durable plastic
■ Die-cast aluminum handle for ease in turning
■ Approximately 6″ in diameter and 12″ tall
■ Swivel base allows unit to turn 360°

Once you empty one of your containers of brads, buttons, etc., you can use the empty container to store other desktop items such as paperclips, pushpins, the small sticky notes, small frequently used die cuts or punched images (think butterflies).  The possibilities are endless!

Introducing our new wood-mount stamp set packaging!  These new cases are similar to our clear-mount boxes and fit perfectly on the shelf right next to them.  They also have the images and stamp set name on the spine to make your search for the right set even easier.

Starting May 31 all wood-mount sets will come in this new packaging.  Empty cases will be available with the launch of the new catalog. That means you can transfer all your old sets to these new boxes!  There will even be a template for you to create your own label for your old stamp sets (available May 31).  A pack of four half-size cases (3-3/4″ x 5-1/2″) will sell for $4.95 and a pack of four full-size cases (7-1/2″ x 5-1/2″) will be $6.95.

Ribbon Storage-Messy Monday

I love using ribbon . . . and I even love just looking at it! That’s why—when thinking of a way to store my ribbon—I wanted it to be a part of my desk décor. When I saw these shelves at Ikea, I knew that they would be perfect. Not only is each individual spool easily accessible, but it is also inspiring to look at.

The shelves are only about 3″ deep, so Stampin’ Up! ribbon fits perfectly. (All of our ribbon  comes on the same size spool, which makes this type of ribbon storage work very well.)

I just love the splash of color that the ribbon adds to my desk.   Do you have any fun ideas for storing ribbon? Let us know!

Do You Have Organization Problems?

Here’s how one of our Stampin’ Up! products can help you organize that clutter…

The 8.5×11 Paper Holder (#105527) Price $6.95:   Protects the corners of your paper from bending and holds up to 200 sheets of 8 1/2″ x 11″ card stock.

Here’s another idea from Emily M., Trainer & Curriculum Developer, at Stampin’ Up!

Here’s her story:

Sweet Storage Solutions

I live in a tiny apartment. When I say tiny, I mean half of my stamps live in the bathroom closet, some of my kitchen chairs have been banished to the balcony, and baby has been put in the corner. (Literally, my 3-month old sleeps in the corner next to the couch.) Needless to say, organization is important to me these days—and it’s always a bonus if I can organize with Stampin’ Up! products.

That’s why I was thrilled when I found this amazingly simple idea on Pinterest.

It has saved my pantry. My favorite part was that it was complete in two steps:

  1. Pick up the Paper Holder
  2. Insert foil, wax paper, plastic wrap and baggies

Sometimes it’s the simple things that bring organizational bliss.

It’s almost “Spring Cleaning” time!  Do you have other ideas to share on how to organize your home, office, craft space, etc?  Add a comment here on my blog or go to the Stampin’ Up! blog and add your ideas along with Emily’s post.

Happy organizing!    -Sandra-
