I have over a dozen loose 10in table and 7 1/4 in circular saw blades.
Looking for ideas on how to store these.

Try building something like this, especially if you have GOOD blades. I stack my el cheapos on a nail.

Basically what I made although the shelves don't pull out on mine. I use it only for the 10" table saw blades.

For the circular saw, basically just stack them in a drawer. I figure they are disposable.

Mine are held in a scrap piece of 2x6 with slots cut in it.

Lower the blade in your table saw, center the 2x6 over it, and then raise the blade to cut an arc shaped slot in the wood. Repeat as necessary for however many blades you own.

I have quite a few rather expensive blades, so when I built a cabinet to go next to my table saw, I added a drawer just for blades, with special holders.

Here is one of the holders.

This is 1/4" baltic birch plywood with a 5/8 dowel fastened to hold the blade. There are two small rare earth magnets embedded flush with the surface to help keep the blades from falling off. Holes in the back allow for safe, easy removal of the blade.

Here is a holder with a blade.

The drawer that holds all the blades has dados cut in the sides to keep the holders spaced evenly and allow me to quickly grab the blade I want.

This isn't the most compact way to store blades, but I have been using it for many years and am quite satisified.
