I’ve been making some storage and I’ve finally finished the first 2 sections! Bearing in mind I’ve only been cardmaking for about 5 months it probably isn’t the best storage ever made and it is wonky in places. I’m really proud of it though and as I’m making it to suit my needs it is perfect for me. It is very MSE as I made it from mountboard and card from stash.
I made drawer sections from mountboard and then stuck them together. I reused some corrugated cardboard packaging and more mountboard to make an outer skin.
The drawers are for my Promarkers. I used the Letraset chart, coloured it in and mounted each portion to the front of each drawer. The drawer holds all the markers for that section of the chart and the drawers are colour coded for ease of use. The markers are in the right order in the drawer 😉
The drawers were made to measure.
The second section of storage is for my distress inks and perfect pearls. The drawers are colour coded again. I attach my blender pad to the ink pad using adhesive velcro. I also have a sponge dauber for each of them in the drawer.
This is the second storage unit.
The storage so far. I plan to make more tomorrow and play around with the layout!
More to follow!……
wow you clever thing ,all my promarkers are just bunged in a drawer.
What a good idea to be colour co-ordinated like that, I’m afaid my are just stuffed into a folder.
Oooh I just love all your rainbow drawers and boxes! You are so clever! I’ve just ordered some wire mesh cube things to replace my collapsing cardboard shelves for my card and paper and they won’t look as pretty as that!
Thanks for your lovely comment on my blog. Sheba is still asleep, I’m afraid – too exhausted today to do anything (had a really bad day yesterday and then we were out in the evening) but I haven’t been idle – I’ve been making a video today, which is on its way up to Youtube and to my blog, so watch this space!
