Good Morning! This is a fun, very short but I hope informative post for you! It has been a while since I have shared some tips and tricks that I use to make my "Stampin' life" easier. I totally realize that it takes time to figure out a system that works for you.
I think I can speak for just about all of us, organization is something that we struggle with, we try new things….go back to what we used before…to go to the store and find a NEW - "I just have to have item"….to come back home frustrated. Sound familiar???
The products that I am sharing with you today that works from me is from Stampin-n-Storage. You can click here to see their website. I cannot say enough amazing things about this company! The quality is amazing, the customer service is super….I just am so pleased with everything that I have purchased.
I am the very first to say that I realize that it is an investment….but I have slowly built up items from them and I can honestly say, they make my life easier! They fit our products perfectly and the "master mind" behind it has true blue experience and advice as to what we need as his wife is a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.
Enjoy the pictures below and I hope that this will inspire you to "ROUND UP" your products and get them organized….whatever system works for YOU is the most important part…everyone does things differently but I hope that this helps you!
Remember….today is the magical day of the week that new weekly deals are offered! Click here to see the goodies this week – do you have a favorite?????
Let's chat about the label maker….it is a very important "friend" to me! You can find them at many local stores but I find it easier to just go to Amazon. This one allows you to print (2) lines if you want…there are many different font, it is just the best – Here is the link to the one that I use and love!
Click here to see the offering from Amazon.
Did you see the Yellow dividers that I used? Now here is a GREAT tip for you to take advantage of now with all of the Back to School items out everywhere. They are just simple plastic folders found at the office store….I think that they were 5 for $1.00 .
I just cut off the edge and them cut them to the size I wanted. They are PERFECT as they are super sturdy and take the abuse of flipping through many times!
I have also found that Alphabetizing my folders as it saves a bunch of time when I am working on projects.
I love the fact that these products are designed to hold our product at an angle so it makes flipping through them super easy. Look at the website and you will see then design is at an angle.
I cannot say enough great things about all of these products…to me the label maker is one of the best things you can have at your house (plus it makes a super gift for that hard to buy for person) Another "heads up" – purchasing your tape for the label maker from amazon will save you a bunch, it is soooooo much cheaper!
Yesterday was long but good….a great report (I guess) from the doctors – 3 more weeks of the boot 24-7 (I was really hoping that I could take to off to sleep) I feel like I am a pretty "tough old bird" but I have been saying that I have a "burning feeling"….yep – I have a nerve hypersensitivity something that we need to get under control before I go forward with therapy – in the meantime they said that water therapy would be great so in our pool I am going to go!
I hope that this post shares with you a sneak peak of what makes me roll and you found it helpful! Please feel free to email me if you have other specific questions about the label maker etc…..Until tomorrow!
NEWS FLASH (every Tuesday we get updates…..and they are saying that TOMORROW, August 5th that NEW items will be added to the Clearance Rack)
I hope that it is a great offering…..I do not want to have "flashbacks" of the last one! I am being positive you you bet that I will pop on and see…..(and probably buy)!
Good Morning Susan, I am sure you are tired. Take today easy. I love my label maker too and my daughter requested one when she moved to her new apartment in March. I have the magnetic cards and think they are great. I have grown from the hardware store magnet sheets. Like you said, start small.
Hope you made out great at the doctor’s appointment.
🙂
I love when you post tips! They are so informative and helpful. I agree…..start small…..a little at a time. I use stamp-n-storage products also and absolutely love them especially my ink pad holder and punch holder. Hope your doctor’s appointment went well and you received good news. Enjoy your day and don’t overdo it.
You go right ahead and sip on your coffee. We will be just fine with that. I keep hearing, reading and seeing ads about this company and how much they make life simpler and easier when creating. Guess it’s time for me to give them a try… I always appreciate the tricks and tips you share. Blessings and Hugs sent your way~
Hope everything went well for you yesterday at your doctors appointment! Love the storage tips. I couldn’t survive without my label maker. 🙂
My crafting life was made so much easier when I received a punch holder and ink storage from my husband as a gift. Everything goes so much quicker now that my supplies are at my fingertips.
My husband is doing water therapy for his back and highly endorses it. I hope it works as well for you. Rest up and take it slow. Healing takes time.God”s blessings.
I order from stamp and storage. I just love their products. Thanks for letting us know about the label maker. I just now ordered that one form Amazon… How I love Amazon,,, 2 day shipping works for me.lol…..Thanks so much for the tips. Hope you heal me real soon. I can imagine what that boot feels like in this heat. I live close to you. I’m in Waynesboro. Have a great day and God Bless
Thanks for the terrific Tuesday tips! I hope to have the label maker come to my home at some point. It looks like it would be helpful for a few things in my house in addition to the myriad of uses in my stamping world!
I’m sorry you have to keep on with the boot. At least you won’t be wearing it in the pool! Double benefit there!
I finally opened all the waiting SU boxes that had been accumulating over the past year. I seriously need to have a card-making party to use up all that stuff! The only thing is, I have about 8 or so retired colors of ink here and the one new black stamp pad. I have TONS of DSP, but no ink to match. I can tell you that the ink pads are now right up there with my sewing machine and my silverware for what is going in our air shipment in Oct! No stamping without ink!
Take care! Have fun in the pool! Do the dogs swim with you? Is there a shallow part for Daisy-Mae to get in?
Cyberhugs!
I love the Stamp ‘n Storage stuff. That said I don’t actually own any of it. I craft on a roll top desk and always have. In fact, I am on my second one having worn out the first. I told hubby if something happens to this on the next one will be the SnS one! I like the box and magnetic sheets you have there for the dies. I just wish there was something out there like that but with a cover! You know to keep cat hair and dust out.
To Princess Judy: covered boxes are available from Stamp N Storage! I love mine.
I can remember when I thought labels makers were totally silly – now I think I would go through withdrawal if someone took mine!
As James always said when he was little….
Mom, start small – think big!
I love that motto!
I can’t wait to have a cup of coffee with you one day! I am sure our coffee will get cold because of yacking!
It did…..I just wish I could sleep without this silly boot – it is so heavy – just 3 more weeks with it at night! Hugs to my little buddy!
You have a WONDERFUL husband….what a sweetie!
Oh my…..my Mom was raised in Waynesboro and that is where John is from…..what a small world – we are neighbors!
You are my hero – I have no idea how you have been able to do what you do!
Yes the dogs love to get in the pool….no way with Daisey – (the kids wish she would) as she would sink!
The do make a cover! Call them if you have a special request – they are the best to work with!
You beat me to it! Thanks for popping in and sooooooo glad you love your goodies!
What can I say, “Dream the impossible dream” as to getting organized!
