This is how I organize all my stamps. In a later picture you will see how I have them in my book. But they are all organized with a letter and number according to the size of the container (A1, B23, etc.) I am able to stack a lot of stamps on this shelf but am sure I will soon run out of room!

LOL...you use the same system as me...the smallest case size is A...then the sets are numbered A1, A2, A3 and so on. Does that speak to us having too many stamps??? For shame on me for saying something so outrageous ;)

I don't think it's too much at all!!! You never can have too much of a good thing. One of my client's told me that she read you should never store stamps on top of each other but on end. Have you heard that? Mine are store similar to yours but I'm thinking I should change. What a lot of trouble that would be!

You just gave me an idea!!! My stamps are stored on a shelf just like this but in the opposite direction. I'm thinking I will get more shelf space if I put them in the other direction. Guess I'll add that on to my list of things to do today!! Thanks for the idea!!

I have a lot of stamps but I have never seen that many SU sets in one place. I don't keep my sets in there containers together. I catagorize my stamps by theme. I found breaking sets up into my system helped me see them as individuals and use them more independently instead of just as a set.
Lot of my friends can't stand that I don't keep my cases so I have started giving them away as gifts.
