Vizma, I'm jealous of your drawers! (drawers& rubber stamps) :-) Talking with rubber friends is inspiring.... this will be a rubber carving saturday.....

Xmas stock is really cheap now, here's what I did with a couple of bargain erasers!

Linda and Lindy, I used the advice from both of your comments and they work really well!

I chopped up a mouse pad and used a thick foam double-sided tape to stick it on. I used stickers to put the image on the back, but that's no good, they just peel off. I lined the shelf with acetate, (I had paper but that would dry them out, I'm guessing) and have stored them in these very handy little drawers. (Which I MADE a retired dentist give me!!!)

Thanks again for your help!

Thanks so much for your quick responses Linda and Lindy!

 I'll start experimenting on the ugly ones until I get it right! I'll keep you posted...cheers!

For unmounted rubber stamps -- I trim them neatly around the edges of the rubber.

for a re-usable mount I like to use "Eileen's Tack it over and over" - (available in the U.S.) it's like a white glue that is painted on the back of the rubber and stays tacky. OR double stick tape is great also. I store them on old plastic coated photo album sheets or in CD cases. When using the stamps I stick them to something flat... the top side of a wood mounted stamp or an acrylic block works great.

Hi Vizma.... I have many rubber stamps, I buy they unmounted (so they cost less in shipping too) and then I glue a piece of old mousepad, cutted same shape.... (you glue the back of the rubber stamp on the soft side. Then I store them in a plastic pockets ring binder, (plastic sheet with many pockets such as for postcards or trading cards) ....ciao

Look at these lovely Stempelen which came in the mail today! No, not a grand mail art gift, I bought them online! Any tips on how to mount them, I haven't done it before. Any info would help!
