Smile snap stamp storage

After trying a couple different things, I have found that 2 sets of 1/8" and 2 sets of 1/4" snap stamps fit perfectly in a Jo-ann Organized Essentials 7 compartment box--7.2" x 4.6" x 1.6".
I have learned so much from everyone here. I'm glad to have something to contribute.

And what a contribution too! Mine are in a big ziplock bag and I hate that. I don't have a Jo-Anns here but when I go home for Thanksgiving, I am so going to go buy one these! Thank you.

Thanks so much. I'm at my wits end trying to find a good storage solution for these little stamps. I'm going to Joann's today.

When you store these are they all lose or do you snap them all together again. I keep thinking of a way to have slots to put them in. All the A's, B's,C's etc in their own slots. But I haven't seen anything that would work yet. I hate putting them back together when I'm finished so when I want to use them again it's easier to find the correct letters. I guess I'm just lazy!

They are all standing up but I have not bothered to put them in alpha order; however, they do have to be snapped in groups of 4 or 5 to fit.

I found this storage box at Storable's. It cost about $18(tax included) with the extra dividers I needed. You can put the dividers anywhere you want. It took me about an hour to figure out the spacing so they would all fit, but I have 2 1/2" sets, 2 1/4" sets, and 4 1/8" sets in alphabetical order(sort of) and all in one box. I took them with me to a family reunion where I was making an album for my grandma and used them to make all the titles. It was great!

I use a bead tray found at Michaels ($4.00 only with a 40% off coupon!) made
by Craftstor. It has 32 individual bead compartments so you can put one letter of the alphabet in each compartment. It's small and easy to store and holds multiple sets. I have 3 sets of the l/8 in one compartment with room for probably a 4th. Look for it in the bead area. It has a blue bottom and a clear top! Best thing I found so far for storage at a great price!

I got some cute Mary Englebrite little decorated gift boxes at Michaels. They hold one set upright each. They were $1 each in the bins at the front.

That sounds just what I'm looking for! I want something that keeps those suckers upright and I wouldn't have thought of this -TFS!
