Stamp Rooms, Clean Or Cluttered?

Bujutsu, Usually its the wife that wants more cabinet space

Thanks, KirkS...!

I'm into postal history covers. (no fdcs or cachet's) Probably why I'm neater than most. The collection & reference library resides behind me and in a closet.

sorry, this is as far as you go..the rest is classified !!

Nice tattoo. Were you in the service?

Couple of shelves in the upstairs closet and a mess on my half of the dinner table. That is my collecting areas. Dan

Oh NO ...pristine !!

Smaugie Yes I was in the service..i was very fortunate..it was during the "cold war"..Berlin wall etc:

Now, this post was a fantastic read and I really enjoyed seeing all the pictures, I am nowhere near having a stamp room yet, but I can see how it can happen. But as for me, I'm keen on organization and agreed that I'm not allowed to buy any new stamps until I'm done sorting and cataloging what I currently have and that my friends for a newbie has been quite the endeavor!

tsktsk moldman... that's entirely... I don't even have words.

Frankly, if you can move without fear of knocking something over, then I think it's too clean. :P

Zuzu, I think you can safely say our house is "lived in" !

Phil, at least there appears to be some method to your madness...

I'll try to work up the courage to take a picture or two. I don't have a stamp room; I have a stamp box. It's from a case of copy paper. It holds my stuff (which is very little yet), and I can set up at the dining room table or the coffee table. Well, theoretically, I could do that. In reality, I usually end up just stacking things on a dining room chair.

Hi!
I can't pass along a pic (me & Photobucket have issues) but I'll describe the situation here. We are fortunate to have spare rooms upstairs to use. One of the smartest things I ever did was "let" the wife have one room for her hobbies, and a separate one for mine. Her room is immaculate, with PC, exercise thing, tv, etc., etc. Mine has a model building desk (I'm an avid model railroader) and a PC desk. There are also two bookcases and two cabinets. It is just full of STUFF. For my recent "Big Blue" buying/building spree I installed a temporary card table. And, the model building desk is now used for stamping activities like soaking, drying, sorting, and installation.

Gotta say, it is my happy place...............

I would have to say I have more of a stamp house Albums and works in project are in almost every room however being single is why this works !

Regards from Big Rideau Lake ! Rick, there are two of us..but your method sounds familiar..stamps and accessories on back porch tale, coffee table,dining room table, and of course our stamp/computer room..my wife also has cabinet of stamps in the bedroom..the upper floor in our cape cod is free of stamps !
