Been taking pics of little piles of stuff scattered in various places in the craftroom (otherwise known as 'The Cave'). This entry is for Julias 'WOYWW 63' over on 'The Stamping Ground' Blog.
First shows a few of my folders of unmounted stamps, I use laminated A4 sheets as a base and EZ mount/Cling-on them for acrylic blocks.
Here's a pile of Sizzix dies and some of the more familiar Tim Holtz alterations. Nowhere else to store them at the moment. They do look a bit unstable....don't they?
Final pile is of my Sizzix alpha die sets, next to skeins of silk sari ribbon and cord.
When I look there are actually piles of stuff everywhere, quite alarming really. There you have it. Will visit yours over the next few days.

ReplyDeleteUnstable? Just a bit. Love your piles of silks and ribbons etc. Very colourful.
ReplyDeletemorning Sid .... right that's it I am coming up to roll around in that Sari ribbon .... yummy.
ReplyDeleteHow do you index the stamps - or do you just flick through them?
Hugs

OMG what a collections!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a pile of dies... love the silks, what fab colours.
ReplyDeleteSo Many stamps lol! Great Space, thanks for the snoop! Don't forget to try for my Candy it's Here . Not long to go :0) Hugs Tina xx
ReplyDeleteIt that bundle topples I hope it falls my way!!!!! Hugs Pam x
ReplyDeleteWhat a seriously impressive stack of stash you have. Think I'd always want the one at the bottom of the pile :-)
ReplyDeleteA x
LOL! I, too, and a "pile-er" And, like yours, they often appear to be on the verge of toppling over. But until I win the lottery and can build my custom made studio with perfect storage, it will have to do!
ReplyDeleteSomeday....

WOW!!!! masses of Stamps and dyes!!!!! I love your Owls further down your blog and might have to have a go at making a large one for a door stop. thanks for the comment on my blog i never thought of my colours as christmassy but i suppose they are :) just my two fav's red and green :)
ReplyDeleteOh My Goodness Sid, you have soooo much stuff, darn this snooping, I think we'd we love to come over and play!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great woyww, I'm soooo late for work! ((Lyn))
Thanks for sharing your piles of stash - looks great to me, lol, but that's a bit worrying cos that's how I am, too!!!!! Do you have trouble with the EZ mounted stamps falling off the acetate cos I do and no matter what I do to 'em they still keep falling off?! I have a lot on velcro, still from when I used the Velcro system and they stay in place perfectly. Really frustrates me. Would love a rummage in your stash - how far away do you live??? Happy WOYWW, Sid!
ReplyDeleteYou have lots of stamps there Sid! Love those saffari ribbons/cords great colours!
ReplyDeleteI was going to say something witty about piles but thought better of it!
ReplyDeleteHi Sid!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe the amount of stamps and dies you have....ha, ha alarming...I think every one of us is in an alarming state - just too much stuff! Are we horders of crafty stuff??? SCARY!!!!
Hugs,
Cardarian
Good morning Sid, my you do have a lot of sizzix alphabets. I have a few and sometimes forget what ones I need. Great stash you have lots of rubber and piles of silk would love to be in your cave. Big Hugs Jo.xxx
ReplyDeleteLove all your 'towers' Sid :-)
ReplyDeleteAnne x
What a wonderful collection, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh my! There is an alarmingly serious amount of stash piled up! :) It's great to share
ReplyDeletexoxo Sioux
I'm really late to the party today. My internet stopped working at the wrong time. You have more stamps than I will ever even see in my lifetime, much less own. And that sari ribbon is so colorful. I agree that the amount of stash you have is alarming, but a very good thing. Happy WOYWW.
ReplyDeleteHi Sid
ReplyDeletewow what lots of lovey piles of stash you have, oh all them stamps n dies, have a great WOYWW, sue,x
brilliant piles there, yes it does look a wee bit like its gonna topple over, invite me over and Ill help tidy it all up lol - im sure i can find homes in my room for some of it !!
ReplyDeletethanks for the snoop
hugs
judie xx
What a lot you got! Hope you don't mind me saying though, if your pile of stamps gets too heavy for those at the bottom, they could get squashed.
ReplyDeleteLuv Joanne xx
Good morning Sid :)

Happy woyww
*hugs* Heather x

Good Grief - you have a LOT of stamps and dies!
ReplyDeleteHow many years have you been "collecting"? I dont think I will ever catch up!
Hi Sid, happy to meet you, can't help being a tinsy bit green over all your piles of gorgeousness! What a lovely array of stuff you've got, Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed my visit:D xx
ReplyDeletegreat organisation Sid!
ReplyDeleteYour skeins look gorgeous, such wonderful colour range and how many stamps do you have in those files LOL. My Alterations die's are looking a little unstable too. Have a good day, Tracy Evans x
ReplyDeletePiles of stuff everywhere? Absolutely normal, mate!!! Great to see I'm not a solo sufferer!
ReplyDeletearghhh - I want your cave - I want your cave - can't say or think anything else - I covet your stuff....
ReplyDeleteI must get me some silk sari skeins
NOW
oh nooo Sid you have piles, you can get cream you know! lol
ReplyDeleteI think they are more like towers, leaning towers in the case of the dies lol
I must admit it looks very organised in piles.xxx
ReplyDeleteYou aren't kidding when you say stuffs piling up!! I'd be in heaven in you room but not know what to start playing with first.. LOVE IT!!
ReplyDeleteLooks a fab space to me! I store my stamps like that too - so easy to find (well sometimes) and do you find that you always want the sizzix die on the bottom of the pile? that always happens to me! thanks for the mooch.
ReplyDeleteLoving the organisation of the stamps - very clever. Your piles look slightly precarious though! I'd get them seen too if I were you ;)
ReplyDeletex
OMG sid, does the crafty goodness ever end? Lots of lovely piles I would love to have a good rummage thru. Happy WOYWW day.

Sid, love the unmounted stamp storage, cool idea, I would love a rummage in your craft room looks lovely. Amanda
ReplyDeleteOh I do enjoy looking at your fabulous storage, even if it is in precariously built towers. That silk sari cord and ribbon looks delicious.
ReplyDeletehugs Heather x

Carolynne
wow piles of stash everywhere and those threads are totally gorgeous, they look great on your tag.
ReplyDeletehugs
Look at all those wonderful piles! Sorry to say I would never find anything, I can't find things even when I think I am organized. LOL
ReplyDeleteHi Sid,Some great supplies in your craft area.
ReplyDeleteJulie
Piles of yummy stash everywhere! Absolute heaven
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting me swoon over those boxes & boxes of alphas
Hugs Candace
I does look a bit unstable... So, how long does it take you to find a specific unmounted stamp? My unmounted stamps (not even half as many as yours) are in a binder, too, and at the moment I pretty much know where everything is, but for how much longer...?
ReplyDeleteI don't think I would even dare breathe in your craft room lest everything fall over and collapse! Very impressive!
ReplyDeleteSome fabulous stash you have there Sid. The stamps look very organised, but as for your dies, poor things teetering on the edge. L x
ReplyDeleteI LOVE all your piles of stuff and I think the tag on the previous post is gorgeous
ReplyDeletewoah Sid that's some serious stash you've got there! I think I@m have ing jealousy issues!!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog, going to stay and have anose around at your creations, look very interesting.

I think the worst thing about WOYWW is that through the lens, it looks like you have more and it's not in the right place....but that's not true really! I love seeing your files full of stamps...I think it's the only answer for storage...am working on mine.
ReplyDeleteV E R Y S L O W L Y!
I keep promising to organise my stamps better.. I now have file envy! Love the pile of silks. I only hope you don't have to wind them all onto bobbins. Have a great Sunday. Gez.
ReplyDeleteeeeeeee, I wanna come and rummage in your room !! All those stamps! Fab idea storing them like that... saves space.. which I could do with .. so I may just nick that idea LOL
