I use the exact same shoe holder for my punches! Mine hangs from the side of my wire shelving though. OMG! I use the exact same shoe holder for my punches!

I was too spread out before. I used to store my punches in two shoe holders like you have and my ribbons were in a box. When I moved I put my ribbons in an over-the-door shelving unit so I could see what I have. I don't have enough doors for the 2 shoe holders in this room and switched to the towel bars from IKEA other had mentioned on SCS for the larger punches and the magnetic utensil holder for the smaller punches, also mentioned on SCS. I added magnets to my embellishment containers and stuck them on a magnetic board. Now everything is out so I can see what I have and actually use it and most of it is at arms reach. Good luck with your new room. It's so nice to move into a freshly painted, organized room. In your case, I can see you are already very organized.

The rest are in rubbermaid-type containers. I guess I need another door (or I could just get rid of some of the punches I never use ?!?!?!?).

I don't have a door that I can use like that, and I think that my punches combined might be too heavy as well. At the moment they are still all just in an underbed storage box which is under my sewing/craft table. I really want something better though. You asked for pictures, so here is a link to mine! http://joanne-mainlyflowers.blogspot.com/2008/04/storing-punches.html Looks good Michelle.

Usually the shape is displayed on top of the punch, but punching one out and displaying behind helps, and if you put it back in the same place always, and you lend it out or misplace it, it would remind you what to look for. I have a book that a friend gave me, that isn't too large, but in it, it has sections to put samples of colors, punches, stamps, marker pens etc. that I have so I could take it with me shopping to refer to and then not duplicate, or duplicate if needed. It is called the Stamping Companion by B & B Printing Graphics. Takes some effort to keep it up tho. Love your work Michelle!! Fabulous!

HOWEVER I just was in a scrapping store and they had taken this idea to the next level. They had slipped a piece of white cardstock into the back of each slot (sits behind the punches) and it sticks up above the pocket and on it they had punched out in black paper the actual punch design and pasted it to the top of the white cardstock. It is MUCH easier to see where your punches are. I just love it. I would put a pix but I don't know how! ha! i have done the same thing that you have for your punches, several months ago … HOWEVER I just was in a scrapping store and they had taken this idea to the next level.

Mine is clear vinyl rather than netting and is hung in the closet rather than over the door but it is pretty full (including several heavy Marvy scallop punches) and no problems with it coming apart at the seams ......... yet!
