I've tried using jewelry trays, but found them too restricting. I tried Ziploc bags and found that I had to dig around too much to locate the stamp I wanted. The latest is using a small dresser in which I put my stamps in by category. What I would really like to get one day is a set of
drafter's drawers.
When I get a bunch of UM, I adhere them to cling foam because I like to use them over and over again without having to apply more adhesive. Plus, it doesn't gunk up my acrylic blocks as I have found that reusable adhesive does.
My latest finding is that I adhere a number of UM to the cling foam and instead of using a scissors, I use a craft knife. It's so much more precise and I don't end up with a slanted edge on the cling foam.
When I have a rather large around of UM to 'process', I adhere as many as I can to the cling foam, then use my craft knife to cut out a section of however many UM I think I can easily cut out. I have found that this gives me ability to succeed and that eventually I get them all cut out by batching them.
I recently gave quite a bit of stuffs to Goodwill. These are things that I'm finding I just have never used and therefore really am not that interested in. I'm using Goodwill because it's in close proximity to where I live and speeds up the process in getting rid of those things that need to be given away. My hopes are that someone will get them and get 'bit' by the 'bug'.
