Kelli’s Kreation’s: DIY Ink Storage

I am no snob to ink... I do not turn my nose up to any ink. Inks like versafine black for stamping, the SSS hybrid black, memento black, they are in a drawer with all my stamp blocks and adhesive ! All my other inks on the other hand were literally just thrown into a drawer in small boxes that I had to dig through any time I wanted a colored ink. So as I am getting into the swing of crafting again and deciding what I want to spend time on the most, I am organizing my studio!!! My wonderful Husband put in cabinets and a counter top for me soon after we moved into this house after we moved back to VA from Idaho. I will show more of those another time..

So I have spent the past couple of days trying to figure out how to make my ink drawer more organized and I finally found it!!! Make a box for each ink.... So I did...

showing the score and cut lines. I will add dimensions at the bottom!

Before I organized.

Without mini ink pads. That storage system is still in the works as I have more than will fit into my box.

This and the following pictures are the steps I did to make each box. They are pretty straight forward but please let me know in the comments if you have any questions.

This is where you have to fit your boxes into your drawer or whatever you are using to see how many fit in a row. Luckily all of my large distress inks fit in one row as I have started getting the mini inks. Distress Oxides are another animal all together as they cannot be stored on their sides.
