Default Storing Copic Caio Markers

I have most of these and am looking into storage ideas for them, that make them easy to access and use. Do any of you have pics of how you store them that you could share?

Thanks
Rosemary

I'm just using the clear cases that came with them, but I'm looking for another way so I'll be watching this thread. I'm thinking of using a Pampered Chef tool holder. I didn't realize when I ordered the set that they don't have the numbers on the caps! It makes it so much harder to find the specific colors I want!

Scrapinsanity has empy zig cases for $16.49. They are the same case and insides as the SU! marker set. I have 4 and to store all my markers and pens. Well worth the money and if you want to travel the outside case makes it easy.

i only have 18 so far, but will have a set of 36 when i get all my markers from gina's marker club. i am storing them in this cute lunch box where all 36 will fit and have a cd case with stamped images so i can take it to go and colour.
sometimes i only am to go in other parts of the house, but its working.

Thanks for the link. I ended up with a small rubbermaid 5 drawer unit and will see how that works. I sorted by colour grouping and labelled the drawers so I will be able to locate specific markers. I had already made a colour chart. The Quikutz die storage thing looks really neat but since the Ciao ones do not have the numbers on the ends, I wasn't sure how well that would work. But if my other system isn't successful, I will be looking for one of them.

I have mine in a basket that I recently got at Michaels, 40% off. It is square and has a handle to it's easy to carry. I got 3 sets and they all came in cases and the individuals are in a box, standing up. IN the basket I also have my prismacolor pencils in a SU clear case, my Spica glitter pens and a clipboard with stamped images. I like to work in different rooms of the house so this makes it perfectly portable.

I am so glad you found something that works. Copics are so much fun!

It really doesn't matter how you store them just that whatever you do works for you. I also have color charts and tutorials on Copics if that would be of any interest to you also on my blog.
Plus the Copic site http://copicmarker.com/ does show other units that they have designed just for storage. maybe on of these would work better. If you have any trouble finding these storage units just let me know, I can help you from there to purchase them. Have fun!
