Any ideas for displaying punches?
 
Hi.. my stash of punches are getting numerous... and I HATE digging in my storage drawer hunting a punch... Any ideas about how to put them out in view so it would be easy to grab one when I need it?
God bless

I have mine in an over the door plastic shoe rack. i got mine at Target. I had DH drill holes into a board, then he put a huge bolt and washer into the board, then screwed the board into the studs in the wall, now my rack is nice and sturdy and VERY heavy, I can't see it coming off the wall or anything anytime soon. love mine!

I've seen some stamping spaces here on SCS where they use pretty towel bars, I think they are from IKEA. The larger punches look great displayed on these!

Just recently someone here posted a pic of a really nice idea that really shows them off. Found it!

I have a lot of punches and I have them stored in two Punch Pals by Crop in Style and a shoe organizer from Target...picture below.

The shoe organizer I hung from Command adhesive hooks...despite the fact that the organizer weighs a ton, the hooks are holding just great!

The Punch Pals are no longer being manufactured by Crop in Style...I did a search online and it looks like the best way to find one is Ebay. There are a few online stores that still list them, but one in particular that has a name something like a number plus the word stop plus a shape is to be avoided at all costs. ;)

I purchased this rack from my LLS that is closing. It is a three-sided spinning wire grid on wheels. Turned out to be perfect for my punches!

I actually have had the same problem as my attention has shifted to the punches from stamp sets. I use a basket I already had (Longaberger) to display them in. I'd love to hang them but my craft area/office is in the living room and there isn't much wall space or a door to hang some of the other ideas.

Some people have asked which Longberger basket I am using and honestly I don't know :rolleyes: My sister gave me most of her baskets that haven't been used in years. It is dated 1996 on the bottom and it has handles on hinges. The measurements are 18x11x4 1/2 inches if that helps. I'm working on other ways to use them with my stamping supplies. Hope that helps some of you that have baskets already.

Stamps n' smiles!

This is the system I use, and I wish I had more wall space too! :)
Anyway, I love the way i can see the punches and it makes me use them more often when I don't have to dig for them in a bin I used to use!

I used to use the shoe organizer, but the punches get kind of weighty and the shoe organizer I had wasn't very supportive.

It looks/sounds like a large gathering basket (which is no longer made) but I don't have a bently guide handy to check the measurements for sure.
