Storing your Dies ...

Hi Everybody,

I am always being asked where I get the plastic pockets from that I store my dies and stamps in.
I got loads of them from Amazon a few years ago but they came from the US and the company no longer ship to the UK 

So I started to search for a new supplier as they are really a handy way to keep all your dies together. 
The smaller ones are simply CD pockets and you can get them anywhere. But the bigger ones are really strong and a good size at 6x8.

Sadly I have not been able to find any ... BUT ... Sue Symons has been doing some research also and she has found this video on YouTube and sent me the link. I am so happy to be able to share this with you and so here is the video ...



I hope you enjoy this and give it a try for your own storage solutions. I will certainly be making some of these for my self and will let you know how I go on 

A big thank you to Sue for sending me the link and also to Ann Melvin the lady who did the video in the first place .... MWah !!!!

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  11. I use the Avery Elle type plastic sleeves from Amazon. Since they're not name brand, they are less expensive than Avery Elle but seem as durable. This looks like a great idea too!
