I am accumulating a great deal of Thickers... So I am asking, how do you store them? | |

Right now I have mine on a large Clip-It-Up, with all my other alpha stickers too. I sectioned them by color. I don't love this system, but I already had the Clip-It-Up (previously used for embellishment storage) so i thought I would give it a try. |

In baskets (yes - that's plural!) lying on their sides. Makes it super easy to flip through. |

I have an old wire over-the-door towel rack that I use the M's brand clip-it-up clips to hang my thickers on |

I have mine standing up in a basket. They are super easy to flip through. I need to get another basket though - my "overflow" Thickers are currently in a drawer. |

Mine are also stored side-ways in a...let's see, I guess you would call it a white leather serving tray with handles and high sides. It was a gift from a client this past Christmas, filled with snacks. I absolutely love it. I will post a picture when I get home. |

I have most of my letter stickers arranged by colour in a small wooden trunk. I cut dividers out of foam core to help support each section and make it easier to find the color I am looking for.
For my current favourite fonts and favourite colours, I have several dozen sets of letter stickers laying on their sides in old sewing machine drawers. They fit the full length of a package of Thickers, including the top part of the packaging, just perfectly.

I jumped on the Thickers hoarding bandwagon and just got a big order from Two Peas today.
Just about everything I got was on sale!
here's a link: http://www.kissandtellscrapbooking.com/my_weblog/2013/03/what-this-pea-ordered.html
_____
I'm thinking I'm going to have to do a purge in my scrapbook room & some reorganizing for all these Thickers so I'll be watching this thead! |

They are in one of the four drawer cubes from M's, in rainbow order. They fit almost perfectly and I can get a lot of packs in one drawer.
I just went and counted and You can fit 42-45 or so in a drawer, depending on how tightly you want them in there. I have 2 1/2 drawers full....I don't think I need to buy any new thickers for a while  |

In 3-ring binders by color. I love it especially with the thickers that fall off so it catches them. Others use baskets, think bread baskets. |

I've got mine on the bottom of my Clip-It-Up by color, but I'm running out of room and want a lazier solution for when I don't feel like wrestling them back into their plastic. I might try the binder or basket thing. |

Scattered across my desk 
They should be in the bin on my desk not all over my desk. Or maybe they are supposed to be in my sticker binder?

In a drawer, on their side. Neutrals first, then rainbow color, finally some silver and Kaiser gem letters that I hardly ever use. |

In a milk crate. Not one from Target, a true milk crate. I've had it since college (20+ years ago) and I have no idea where it came from.
Two rows of Thickers fit perfectly. I have no idea how many I have in there but the crate is about full. |

if I had a scrap room, the clip it up would definitly be a great way, but since I pretty much have just a corner of our living room, I am extremely limited in space. | |

I got a bathroom storage basket at Marshall's I have mine in there, they stand up and are easy to go through - this storage is just for the unopened ones though.
The packs that are in use are kept in a 3 inch binder with 8.5 x 11 page protectors, when taken out of their packages, they fit perfectly length-wise in these protectors, there is room on the sides but they don't really move around. I find it easy to flip through them this way. I keep all my alpha sets that are in use (not just thickets) in this binder. |

I have a basket from Ms. They actually lay down on their side perfectly... well, perfectly until I had to many
So, now they stand up in the basket in 2 rows, because I have a desperate need to own every thicker in the whole wide world  |

I use the 6.5x13 clear plastic Itso bins from Target. They fit Thickers perfectly. I can get 2 in a cube in my Expedit. It is really easy to slide them out for use. I have mine divided black & white and the other bin by colors. |
