What's Up Wednesday-Stamp Inventory Organizer


One of the greatest things about being a CTMH independent consultant are the ideas you get from other consultants. One project I completed at this weekend's retreat was an inventory binder of all my stamp sets. It is just a decorated 3 ring binder with blank paper and dividers inside. While there are several ways to get images of the stamp sets, I choose to cut pictures of the stamp sets I own from old Idea Books. I made a section for each category of stamps we sell and taped the picture to a blank paper in the right section.


This is a great way for me to keep track of the sets I have, mark which ones are discontinued, and it's easy to revise. I know I have many friends and customers who ask how to keep track of their stamp sets so they don't purchase similar (or even the same) set twice. I hope this is an idea that will help some of you.
Other organizational ideas include making a spreadsheet of your stamps sets or creating a 6x6 album of the sets you have.
I wonder how many sets I have...Do I really want to know???

  1. Love the book, used it many times. I think I will do it for my sets. I'm getting quite a few.

  2. Your stamp book is pretty cool. I'm sure it will be very useful to you and many others! Also, thanks for being such a patient teacher to all of us this past weekend. You never once complained no matter how many times we interrupted you. Thanks also for sharing all that you have with us!
