Storage for Promarkers
I've just treated myself to some Promarkers, but I dont have any storage.
Whats the best way to store them? I'm guessing flat, but are there any storage wallets that will fit them?

I use clear plastic wallets I bought from WHSmiths for 39p each and store each of the colour ways together, ie, all the greens in one, all the blues in another etc. I then tied a piece of ribbon in the appropriate colour onto the pull of the zip, so now when I look in my draw, I just look for the right colour ribbon, and pull that one out. Not very conventional I don't suppose, but it works for me. HTH xxxx

I saw this fantastic idea online - its the dvd holder from ikea and every second slot holds an empty dvd case and you lay the promarker flat on the dvd case (if that makes sense) - also on the letraset website they give you the promarker chart so you can print and glue the row of colours and names on your dvd case edge. I'm sure if you googled you will see what I mean (my explanations are always long winded for some reason) - oooh I'm sure I got the idea off here someone had it on their blog - sorry can't rememeber who it was though.
hth,
Fae

Someone mentioned CD boxes from Tesco but I couldn't find any in my local Tesco so I've ordered one from Amazon.
At the moment I have them in the Letraset Promarker wallets but they take up a lot of space and my craft area is tiny so I want to have them in the box (if they'll fit)

I have the Ikea DVD case plus the drawers advertised on here-Creations by Rod-I think, on ebay anyway. I love the drawers but they don't fit the whole set of markers so when I have saved up a bit more I'll buy another set of drawers

Like Fae, I saw the idea with the DVD Ikea rack online, which is perfect.
i came across it on the Passion For ProMarkers blog. {{ HERE }} is the according entry with pictures.
It really works well
