In today's video I share with you how I store my metal dies including my metal die organization and catalog using evernote. I watched so many videos before I figured out how I would store my dies, and I searched long and hard for the perfect basket to store the magnetic sheets backed on chipboard in with my metal dies. It also took me a long time to figure out what categories I wanted to have to organize my dies. This process took me a couple of months so I'm hoping this gives you some metal die storage ideas. I also share with you how I catalog all of my dies on my laptop using evernote. This way if i'm ever on a design team I can easily see which dies I have with which brand. Watch to find out more!

Thanks so much for sharing! It takes me so long to find a die because they are not organized. This is such a great ideal, really appreciate it! Hugs from Canada!

I’m working on a similar project right now, but I live in the dusty desert, so I prefer sleeves. I have several smaller stamp and die sets that I plan to assign tags to individual components in Evernote, such as flowers, hearts, stars, critters, sentiments. I like the idea of die cutting all of the pieces for the back. This would be especially helpful for sentiments! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much for sharing all this! I'm in a similar place so far as not being certain how I want to organize, but my current system is worse than where you started. I have pieces coming off of cardstock I sprayed temp adhesive on. I think the idea was sound, but the cardstock wasn't stiff enough. I do have lots of magnetic sheets, but they are so heavy that Im not sure I want to use them. Might get some of your recommended chip board. It looks awesome & pretty durable. For future ref, it's easier to stick stuff down in place when you tear off a corner of the backing, then line it up, press down the sticky corner to tack it, then peel off the rest of the backing while sliding your hand across the top to stick it down (like for screen protectors or vinyl). Thanks again! Keep on keeping on!

They sell a brush to roll over the die to get the paper bits out. I started out making them the way you are but found sticking to cardboard too time consuming since I have so many dies. Now I just put the magnetic sheet in the Avery Elle envelope with card stock behind it or they will stick together. If there’s only one piece to the die they go in the envelope with just the cardboard. It doesn’t need a magnetic sheet. Your organization is very nice but with hundreds of dies you will want something quick.

Mary Naples I probably have around 100 dies now but this organization works for me and I love it ! I love being able to just grab what I need. The cardboard and magnetic sticker sheets didn’t take too long ... the typing up the info and sticking the info on takes some time though and my organization on Evernote. Since I make things and share on Instagram and do KZfaq videos, it all is very helpful for me! I thought about putting those cardboard magnetic things into envelopes but I like the easy access of it now 😁😁

Super helpful video ... hadn't thought to colour code by category. Did you split die sets ie sets that have tags & flowers or flowers & sentiments etc Like that you note matching stamp sets. Also found your categories useful Thanks from Australia 🐨 🐾

Love your storage for the dies . 😊 Quick ? The basket came in a 3 pack did you use the medium or the large basket? Love your channel , made the bug spray you did and it works great.

@KarolinasKrafts 4 жыл бұрын

I think I used the medium but i'm not 100% sure. My baskets measure 9 3/4 inches by 12 inches :) Hope that helps!

use your pokie tool to get out of the die the little pieces or get a brush from tim holtz it comes with a foam piece ya lay your die on it and brush over it super simple

@Kimberlymogan Жыл бұрын

Either get the brush to get the paper out (I don’t like it) or my favorite way is use a weeding tool. It’s a tool for circuit or such that’s like a pinpoint piercing point . Just poke thru the holes from the back to pop out the paper

@corinnegallant7878 2 жыл бұрын

Wonderful idea. Did you use a Cutting machine with a print and cut option to create the colored labels?

Don't glue down the backing, you can just peel the magnet itself off the backing you glued down, it's like hanging the nail from the painting.

FOR THE magnet SHEET ALL YOU NEED IS A STRIP OF THEM NOT THE WHOLE THING it was hold them any ways with out wasting it

@KarolinasKrafts 2 жыл бұрын

That would work if they were on like a cabinet or just hanging up. But because I have them in a bin I need the whole magnet otherwise the dies get press up against the piece that doesn’t have the magnet and they fall off 🤷🏻‍♀️
