I was using lovely Cosmo Cricket Material Girl papers, some new Distress Inks - and I took out my Promarkers for the first time in ages. I'd had storage problems with them, and any time I used them, couldn't see the wood for the trees sort of thing, it was very hard to work out what colours I had. So I spent several happy obsessive hours last weekend doing this:
I'm sorry I can't credit the creator of the idea, I've seen it on several blogs over the past months and have also met several people in real life who have done it too. So all I can say is "thanks" to whoever first thought of it - brilliant storage solution.
Thanks for looking!!

I have that case but mine has cd's in it, but great idea with the pens, although I thought they had to be stored flat, very creative looking desk.

It is great storage, you're right. Thanks for sharing your desk.
Lovely tidy desk and great storage for all those lovely pens.

Great storage idea, not sure mine would fit in though. I did get the wallets form letraset but its a hit and miss attempt everytime I try to use a colour as theres no where for me to mark the wallet stating whats inside!
TFS!

Your desk looks very creative - and full marks for your new pro-markers storage, it looks great!
What a great way to store your markers - might just have to copy that and credit whoever it may be. You're right - it's so hard to find the one you want at just the right time!
Y9ur desk looks very industrious and the card for your daughter is beautiful
Hi Julie
great piccies, now why didnt i think of that for my copics? brill idea, have a great day, sue,x
Since I don't own any pens, I am impressed with your storage solution. Looks like the organizing obsession paid off. Now you won't be searching. Happy WOYWW.
Great desk and great storage idea too ... what more could a girl want on a Wednesday!
Well done on your patience, the storage turned out great.
Luv Joanne xx
Clever Julie - and good looking storage too. No doubt with PMs and Copics that life is so much harder without a colour chart and some organisation - a worhtwhile use of your time I think!
Hi Julie, what a lovely organized working space. Your Promarker storage is a brilliant idea, I'm glad I'm not the only one who's obsessive about storage space for goodies.

Great tidy desk. What a lot of lovely pens you have.

Love the aluminium storage for your pens !!
Great storage, I suppose you could lay it on its side if you wanted them to be flat x
Sorry I'm late calling in this week. I'm having a really manic week and even had to pop to see my elderly neighbour in hospital last night [only a 62mile round trip :-)].
Glad you remembered to join us. Love your pen case.

its truely impressive - but you see I'd just lose the whole box somewhere - seeing as my pens are spread out and about I only lose them one at a time - let me hang onto my excuses? please?
Great storage solution. Thanks for sharing and for the nosey!
What a nifty ideas for your Promarkers!
