I also have more stamps than I will EVER be able to use in this lifetime. But I LOVE them all!!!! I've unmounted and indexed every single one. They are mostly mounted on cling foam and are stored on the slick cardboard panels. Each panel has an index of each stamp...in a clear sheet protector, with another copy of the index sheet in a notebook. All of these are broken down into catagories...people, floral, mermaids, fairies, etc. (Yeah...I'm just a touch anal!) Fortunately I started this early in my stamp addiction and have been able to keep up with that...mostly. I have 4 file drawers full and some overflow of sets that come in CD jewel cases. I desperately need a new filing cabinet but my hubby said that at some point I have to realize that I can't defy the laws of physics and put more stuff in my little room. I beg to differ...laws are meant to be broken! Thank you for making me feel SO much better! I also have more stamps than I will EVER be able to use in this lifetime. But I LOVE them all!!!!

I only get a chance to stamp here and there so can't indulge those voices, but you do a fantastic job and provide a lot of inspiration for when my three boys are a little older so I can have a little more time to stamp to my heart's content :) Thx for the great blog!

By the way, I was delighted to see you were featured in the new edition of the Craft Stamper magazine here in the UK. Your storage looks a little like mine Michelle, but MUCH neater!

I can't believe what I'm reading. Thousands of stamps? Holy cow, I just started collecting stamps in April, this is all so new to me. I'm so in love with stamping, I sit night after night just trying to come up with backgrounds for my stamps. If the voices get any louder, my husband is gonna crown me. He supports me 100% but he will try to tell me there is a limit some day. LOL. I can see this as being more than an obsession. Oh man am I in trouble! I can’t believe what I’m reading.

It's so nice to know I'm not the only SU demonstrator to who buys from other companies. I've made peace with my purchases by realizing I can't outgrow them like clothes, they don't collect mold like leftover food which has to be tossed, and I can make old stamps new again just by stamping them in new in colors! I've already told my kids where to donate them when I'm no longer in this world. Whew! It’s so nice to know I’m not the only SU demonstrator to who buys from other companies.

I have four container similar to your full. I have shelfs of SU stamps full. I have lots of CD cases, full as well as the 6-8 drawer rolling units full. It is an addition, a real sickness. My take is I buy it now while I have the money and probably won't when and if I ever get to retire. Like Monica, my husband humors me too! Men like tools, we like stamps and stamp tools! You go girls!!! So, most of us have that little voice and, most of us listen to it! I have four container similar to your full. I have shelfs of SU stamps full.

Yes, it is an addiction but it's one I don't want to be cured of! Plus, I live alone and am retired so I have nobody to make me stop and I can have my stamps anywhere I want to put them [but, so far, they are all still in one room]. I love your blog and wish I could afford to attend your classes in Castro Valley, California; I sure need help mastering my brayer-ugh!
