How do you store your rub ons?
What kind of container, and do you store your alphabets by color?

I store them in their original packaging, laying flat in a 12x12 drawer.I don't organize them, since I have only several packs. So it's easy to find what I need and when I need it.

In a big 3 ring binder, in page protectors, with a sheet of cardstock in each sleeve to give it stability. So some packages stick out the top, I don't care!

I store my rubons and stickers in an expandable file folder (7.5 x 12.5"). It is great because it has tabs so you can sort by category (baby, christmas, love, etc.). I used to have a sticker binder but it was awful. It was heavy and I had to buy various size inserts to fit all the different sizes. I have 3 of the file folders and now I actually can find my stickers and rubons. they look like this: http://www.shopping.com/xPF-Advantus...rganizer-Clear

So glad you like it - sometimes Joann's has them on sale or I get with a coupon but make sure it is the 12" as they also carry a smaller size.

My rub ons are in an old divided wire basket (I think it was originally lab equipment??) anyway, I have the alphabets seperate from designs but all the alphas are together. I love that I can just flip through them and find what I want to use. I've vowed to not buy anymore rub ons until I've depleted my stash -- I've had a few "go bad" and I don't want anymore to do that! Both of my Clip it Up units are full of other stuff so the rub ons are great in the basket.

Since they come from so many manufacturers in many sizes, I have them in a cropper hopper 12x12 paper organizer (not the big ones we use for paper). It is about 3/4" inch wide and fits in a scrapbook tote to take to crops.

I totally agree with stamphappy1650's suggestion. I picked some up in the dollar bins at Target and they work great for rub-ons, stickers, and alphabets!

I store mine like this too. It's just so easy to flip through the binder to see what I have to work with.

I store mine in a drawer in my iris cart. I don't have that many, I keep my Thickers in the same drawer. Not very exciting I know.

I store my rub-ons and stickers in a rolling file cart in legal size hanging file folders by catagory. I keep the rub-ons in the packaging to keep them safe.
Here is the link to the rolling file cart I have. I love it, I can roll it to where I am working and everything is easy to find!

I store my sticker alphas in a CM File Mate sorted by color.
I store my rub ons in the original package in an Art Bin case.
