Hey, there.
Many people are emailing me asking about my Copic storage.
I took a new photo that is slightly better so you can see how it works
in my workspace. Now that it is part of my room, I am even more
thrilled with it.
Even if you aren't into Copics (yet - ha), you can store pencils,
other markers, etc in these. I am likely going to get two more for
that purpose. I am in love with these - they work so well. If you are interested in this storage, click HERE. (Nope, I am not being paid - just like them. :)
I remember when I was young, I looked at the colors of the world in DMC color numbers. Then it was Bazzill names. Then ink names. Now - Copic numbers. Delightful. :)
One more thing - you gotta check this out. My sweet friend Kristina is giving out the most adorable set of word art for free on her blog. I plan to print this on white for quick Valentines for teachers, etc. Click HERE to get your free goodies.
Off to snuggle with the pup. Night!
I really like that storage idea! TFS. I plan on getting one or two after I am finished setting up my area.
Have a GREAT night!

I like this. I have one of the swivel bases that I keep mine in, but they are upright. I've heard that you can do that with the Copics. Do you find they do better flat?

La la la...I am not listening...la la la. Just kidding I purchased my fist four Copic markers last week. I caved the first time I saw the lovely butterflies you did in Dec. Last week I talked myself into them.
Thanks for sharing all your great tips:)

Love that Copic storage, but am mainly wondering where to get the double carousel storage for the Tim Holtz ink sponges?

Awesome! Been looking for something like this. Ordered! Thanks so much!
Posted by: Sherrie M. | February 11, 2010 at 07:31 AM
Great idea Jennifer, TFS!!! I have a few copics and they are very addictive. I'm finally getting with the program, vertical storage seems to be the way to go for small spaces. : - D

So I love your new organization! The clip it up is awesome. It's been on my wish list for a while now. I just need more space. I showed the video of your scrap room to the hubby and now he wants to change mine around to be a little more organized. You've inspired him! LOL!! Hopefully a clip it up will be on my desk by Mother's Day! Awesome ideas.
Posted by: Latrice Murphy | February 11, 2010 at 11:05 AM

Oh my, I wish I had your wonderful collection. I keep saving money and dreaming away.
Posted by: Laura | February 11, 2010 at 12:49 PM
I love the storage idea! I also adore the carousel holder I do not have any copics...so I guess I will have to check them out :). I love your room...I would never want to leave it...so lovely and organized!! I have a corner in our half finished basement --but I am so grateful I have my own space. DAY 5 of knowing about your blog....and I have visited every day. My girls love looking at the cards and videos. Since we have been snowed in for a bit..and now they do not go back to school until Tuesday. This can be good..and bad:)
Posted by: ~Rachel~ | February 11, 2010 at 01:33 PM
Wow--you have a lot of Copic markers. I'm still holding out on those . . . :)
Thanks for the link for the cute valentine sayings. I need to help DD with her valentines tonight so I'll print these off to use.
Posted by: MelanieJ | February 11, 2010 at 03:19 PM
I was on the lookout for "Scruffy" brown when doing my album for when I showed horses. The Copics look like fun!
Posted by: Kelly | February 11, 2010 at 04:52 PM
thanks for always giving us cool links!
Posted by: Nancy L | February 11, 2010 at 05:58 PM
Jennifer, Jennifer, Jennifer... You can't show us that stamp carousel thingy without telling us the source for that. :O)
And I love those Copic storage pieces. They've been added to my "to buy" list, once I finish (start) organizing my craft room.
Posted by: Lisa | February 11, 2010 at 10:56 PM
Jennifer,
Thanks so much for the link to the freebies... I've downloaded them & can't wait to use them!
Also, I love, love, love the copic cubbies!! I just orderded two, and will order a third if neccessary. I'm psyched!
I am in a major organization mode! These will help!
Thanks again...
Posted by: Ree Donnelly | February 11, 2010 at 11:44 PM
I love that system. It looks great and so organized! :) I'm going to have to start trying the Copic markers for sure soon.
Thanks for sharing!

I have yet to splurge on any Copics yet. I'm very very jealous of your collection. If I were to buy like... 5 to start off with, which ones would you suggest?? I was thinking something for faces because I have a hard time with those! Love love love your blog by the way and someone said it earlier. You truly do have the best job in the world!!

Can you tell us more about your storage for your Tim Holtz alcohol ink applicators? I love what you've done with those-and I'm a little jealous that you have so many :)
Posted by: Kristen | February 12, 2010 at 07:26 AM
i will do in the coming days.
Posted by: Jennifer McGuire | February 12, 2010 at 10:08 AM
I just bought my first set of copics!! It'll take me a while to build up your collection, wow!!! Thanks for the link to the free downloads.
Posted by: Lan Amphone | February 12, 2010 at 10:17 AM
Love the storage - so much better than the tipped over, patterned paper-covered tin can I use. :) I am seriously lusting after your Copic stash too. I have nary a one.
Posted by: Julie in Edmonds | February 12, 2010 at 12:01 PM
It's cool :)
I don't really know Copic Markers... what are their use and why are they so great ?
