Do You Have A Separate Stamp Room?

Hello all,

I am curious to find out if most people here have a separate stamp room in their house so that stamp do not 'get in the way' of your daily chores.

Sometimes I have to spread my stamps on my basement carpet when sorting and albums on the couch which makes that area unusable for family usage & TV watching. That and a very mobile, curious and teething 9-month old makes that room off limits.

How about you?

Cheers
Ram

Good topic, Ramanandn. Here's another thread on the topic that's worth reading!

I have a room that is a combination of home office, computer room, stamp room and library. And yes, there is a lot of stuff in here, just the way I like it.

I have a desk and a bookshelf in a corner of my bedroom dedicated to stamps. My computer desk in the living room is also covered with stamps. Every once in a while I make a big effort to clear things up. And start getting them messy all over again.

No, not really a deadicated stamp room but I do have my den that I use.

I have book shelves with ziplocks and inside are different themes, airmail, animals, presidents/royalty that I need to put in my binders. Other book shelves I have one binder per alphabet, for each country and then in my closet have USA binders.

All in one room though...

Well yeah, stamps and computer room !!

My wife says I have a stamp house - and she isn't smiling when she says it.

I use my poker table in the lounge while working with my stamps, have'nt figured out a permenant place for the albums/stocksbooks yet tho.

Ha, that's funny Scouter!
I have a lot of stamps, all over the place, but my husband doesn't say anything because his hobby of gun collecting, is far more expensive, lolol....

Lucky you to have a stamp HOUSE ! !
Wow, lolol

Well, at least he can guard the stamps, Sue.

Suestamps you aint a birding about the guns appreciating more than stamps...thing is I am not interested in the guns anymore...must have stamps, must have stamps !!

YES ! after 25 years and 3 kids we have a STAMP room !! Could use enlarging..Folks there are only so many book cases and shelves that fit in a 12x12 room !!

You could always put the book shelves back to back, like columns in a library, that's what I did, lolol.. And there is a row of book shelves when you open the door, so the book shelves make it like a wall so when you walk in, it's like a small hallway!

I can relate to that !

We live a small [former] Kibbutz bungalow with just about enough room to swing a cat.
I used to have a small desk in the lounge but due to expansion [of stamp stuff] I designed my own [much bigger] desk and got a carpenter friend to knock it up for me. So the lounge became smaller !

But the stamp stuff grew and took over half of the bedroom cupboard [at the expense of the clothes], half of the glass-fronted Lounge cabinet and half the music cupboard.

So like Scouter says, the wife just 'aint laughin'!

My only consolation in not having a stamp room.....even if I did, 12x12 just wouldn't be enough !

Londonbus1.....still has a problem with the clothes though !

Yes, finally I have my own stamp room since my son is off to college. Happy and sad at the same time.
