Question Acrylic block storage ideas

So, how does everyone store their acrylic blocks?
I've been using a gladware container but recently I got a longer one now I'm wondering what to use.

I have a purple bin that I purchased at the dollar tree that is working out great. It is kind of see through and I can get all of my blocks in there

Mine are just sitting in a basket on my desk so that I can easily reach them whenever I need them.

I use 2 SU clamshell cases that my stamps came in, a large and medium one hold them all.

I use the CTMH storage case. I like it because my blocks are secure in there and they don't get scratched or banged around.

Ditto! I love the CTMH case but I doubt it would work if you didn't have CTMH blocks too.

If you have blocks that are the same size (i.e. 1x1, 2x2, ,1x6 1/2, etc.) as the ones that CTMH has, then it should work.

I use the CTMH case for my blocks except for the ones that I use the most. Lately, my sister and I just live them on the table so they are readily available.

I keep mine in a Fabric Pencil Case. That will fit inside my 3-ring Binder Notebook. The ones I use to store my unmounted Rubber Stamps in.

I've been a Demo for The Angel Company aka TAC. And I would like to know what Storage System you are talking about?

As far as I know we don't have a storage system for our Acrylic Blocks!

Yes we have a great storage system for our Unmounted Rubber Stamps.

And I do know this.

I probably have 15 or so and keep them in an clear acrylic makeup organizer. There is enough room for it to hold also the stamp positioner supplies, layering tool, and various card layer templates. It's easy to see all the sizes.
