    Where is the “this is the most helpful tutorial I’ve ever watched” button? I need to click it 50 times!! This is going to save me sooooooo much time and money! I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve bought the same stamp set or bundle twice, even three times with a few of them. Thank you for taking the time to share this.

    You just "sold" me on Airtable. I was going to do all of this in Evernote but I heard of Airtable yesterday and found your video. I have all of my stamp sets in a similar pattern on an Excel spreadsheet BUT, I can't seem to access it on my Apple cell phone. I also don't have any images on it so that is difficult. Thank you so much for making this transition easy. I will look for a way to copy/paste from Excel to Airtable but if it is not possible, I am willing to fill in. Thank you thank you and thank you!!!

    Thank you Julie! Best tutorial on Airtable by far. I have 2 questions - 1) Is there an easy way to alphabetize entries in the sentiments column? Maybe I want to peruse my list of sentiments, even though I know if I start typing, the entry I’m looking for will appear. Sometimes I just like to look! And 2) If I want to search for SHAPES such as hearts, stars, Christmas trees, etc. in my inventory, would you suggest creating a separate column? Will it search through stamps, but also punches and dies? Or do they have to be linked? Thank you!

    Just getting around to logging everything but this is exactly what I've needed! Thank you! Questions: Do you add the dies on the stamps tab if they are a bundle AND list them as a bundle as well? Or just do one? I noticed when I list the dies on the stamps tab, they show up under the dies header, but when I ALSO add them to the bundle as "add a record" within the dies or stamps tab, they don't show up on the bundle tab of the stamp section. I hope that makes sense. Guess I'd like to know what works best for you?

    Working on transferring my current and "permastash" inventory from Evernote. I'm adding a stamp from the AC-2021 and I wanted to color code it like yours are. I get a message that that's only available in the Pro version. The fields that were already in your base are showing as color-coded so I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding. Again, thanks for the amazing video tutorial. This will be soooo much better!

    Hi Dianne! At the top where I shared how to filter, there is also a sorting option, so you can sort it by any field you like. I sort mine alphabetical by the stamp name - they don’t need to be entered that way. Also, when you want to delete a record, you can just select it, right-click on it and ‘delete selected record’. You can also select a few records and delete them as well. Super easy and versatile!

    Julie, question for you about the images. in the free version you have only a VERY small amount of storage for attachments. There is not enough capacity to upload actual photographs. The only thing I can do is put in a URL to the photo of the image on the web. However, I don't want to SEE the URL, i want to SEE the image in my database, like you see in yours. How can i make the images show using the URL? Thanks!

    Great question, JD! When I click the + button to add an image, then select the Link (URL) option and enter an image URL, it automatically uploads the photo. However, I am on a paid plan. When you enter the URL, does the image not populate for you? I just set up a free account to test it, but I'm stuck in the 14-day Pro trial and can't figure out how to turn it off before the end of the trial - LOL.
