In a world where creativity and innovation intertwine, the story of Stamp-n-Storage finds its roots. It’s a journey that starts with a simple ‘honey-do’ list and evolves into a thriving business that caters to crafters worldwide, born from one couple’s combined passion for crafting and engineering.

The Genesis of a Craft Storage Empire

Mary Haugen, a passionate crafter, was in search of a more efficient way to organize her craft supplies. In response, her husband Brett Haugen, an engineer, took the task upon himself. His endeavor began in the confines of his garage, where the first Stamp-n-Storage products were born. “His goal,” it is reported, “was to construct the most space-saving organizers that would keep Mary’s supplies within easy reach.”

From Hobby Business to Global Brand

Recognizing a market need, Brett expanded beyond providing solutions for Mary alone. His designs were a hit among Mary’s stamping circles, leading him to venture onto eBay. With the success that ensued, Brett formally incorporated Stamp-n-Storage. Initially, it was a small sideline business, while Brett continued his full-time job as an engineer. However, with growing popularity, by 2012, it became evident that Stamp-n-Storage was no longer a side project. Brett chose to leave the security of his career in engineering management to devote his efforts full-time to Stamp-n-Storage.

Growth and Expansion

Stamp-n-Storage has come a long way from its origins in Brett’s garage. It now occupies a 30,000 sq ft facility in Hutchinson, Minnesota, where all its products, including Ink Pad Holders, Paper Holders, and various storage cabinets, are constructed. With over 40 employees and a retail store (craftnstore.com), Stamp-n-Storage continues its mission: to help crafters worldwide organize their workspaces.

Mission and Values

The mission of Stamp-n-Storage is clear: to create storage solutions that optimize space while keeping supplies visible and easily accessible. The company prides itself on its values, including customer satisfaction, quality focus, and efficient resource use, encapsulated succinctly in a quote attributed to Walt Disney: “You don’t build it for yourself. You know what the people want and you build it for them.” Stamp-n-Storage’s commitment to customer satisfaction is evident in its dedication to creating storage solutions that meet the specific needs of crafters. By prioritizing quality and efficient resource use, the company ensures that its products not only enhance organization but also contribute to a positive crafting experience. With their retail store and online platform, Stamp-n-Storage strives to reach crafters worldwide, providing them with the tools they need to create beautiful and organized workspaces.
