I keep my pencil sets in various sized slotted cases. For me, they work out well. My desktop is large enough to keep the cases, my pages, lamp, & cat all in place & leaves room for the tea. I learned to number my pencil slots from another KZbinr & it helps me re-order my open stock pencils. The other thing I like about the cases is that I can always grab 1 & a book to go!

I did something, somewhat similar, however I bought a 10 drawer cart at Michael's and also 3 sets of trays. You can fit 3 trays in 1 drawer. The cart was $30 but I can fit all my coloring supplies and able to wheel it around the house wherever I choose to color. I do need more trays but they were out of the blue ones so i will have to wait till they come back in stock. thanks for giving me somewhat of an idea with the trays.

I have tried so many things to store my addiction 😂, but I always go back to color groups in mugs or jars, lined up in front of me on my work table. When coloring in the evenings, I have a caddy next to my recliner that holds my jars of color grouped pencils. Your new system looks so neat and tidy, but I guess I must face the fact that I like to see the pencils and have them right there ready to snatch up. I will anxious to hear how it works for you.

I have too many sets of pencils to get them all in the individual containers. I switch pencil brands so I can give them all some love. Therefore, I use the wallet type holders and put different set in each. But, I love this idea for all the odds and ends of things I'm always digging for - eraser, bull clip, Posca pen, etc. Thank you so much for sharing this idea! Next payday, you know where I'll be!

Glad you found a solution that seems like it will work for you. It is so pretty!! I have all my supplies in a rolling ikea cart with pencils in smaller zipped cases on the middle shelf so they hardly take up any room. I like the small 72 slot cases because I usually colour in a living room chair so I can tell if I am missing a pencil at the end when I put things away and I can have several cases open around me at once. As I work on a page, I keep the pencils I am using in a round clear container. The top of my cart has all my extras in jars and other holders.

I went to Michael's and got several sets of the Marker storage cases. They hold 60 markers upright, but the cool thing is that each slot holds 4 pencils perfectly.

Great storage solution, i think it will work for you, and, bonus, if you need to expand, you can turn your shelves upside down, thereby using a bottom as a top and get another row for bigger items or another 3 pull out trays :o) I use the pencil cases, my prismas (same pack) fit into 2 of them and they don't take up much space, are easily transportable if needed and the pencils are protected from clashing together and chancing breaking the leads. I liked your video so I subscribed. I also love colouring and use copic markers, pencils and pretty much anything i can get my hands on lol. have fun with your new system.

I like your way of storing your colored pencils. Right now I am working on doing little swatches for my colored pencils, gel sticks, crayons, and markers. I am re-using Temptation cat treat little 16 oz. size treat containers. I do like your method also. The only problem that I have with my way of storage is with having short colored pencils. An also a large enough bin to put all of the different colored storage units in. I don't know how many colored pencils I have. I just bought a new set of Staedtler colored pencils the 72 count set and I haven't even swatched them yet. The only reason is because I am working on my other sets of colored pencils swatches. What brands of colored pencils do use? I have Faber-Castel Metallics, Crayola, very few Prang, Hand Made Modern Metallics, Rose Art, Artist's Loft, Cra-Z-Art, Timeless Creations which I think is Cra-Z-Art also which at the time didn't know about that they were the same, very few Laurentien, very few Derwent, Sargent Art, a few Aquarelle, Create Like Crazy, and Color your way to calm. I would like to get all of the brands but buy the largest set of colored pencils. I also collect coloring books. Would you have any recommendations on colored pencils and coloring books. I have some like Johanna Basford's coloring books, etc. Please send any recommendations to my email address: flower85345@gmail.com Thank you for the information and the video.

As soon as I see the name I know what the color looks like one coat, layered or wet with the Inktense. But with my Prismacolors ...yeah No 😞. I have to have them in order to remember what color is what. So I have them in a big case. My Polys are in a Creative Options Small Rack System stuffed in the trays. You can get all the colors in there plus extras and nubs of pencils to. It's portable which is my main concern since I don't have a designated coloring area. I'm not sure if offers much in the way of pencil protection besides the fact that I can't step on them now (trust me it hurt me way more than the pencil) but it's Polychromos. I think I could use one as a chisel in a pinch, and the core would be just fine 😄 lol! My Inktense are more delicate so I keep them in a pencil case. I would prefer to keep my Polys and Inktense together in something portable though. Thanks for the Great Video! 😃

I like your system, but it doesn't really work for me. I'm a colored pencil snob, and I keep my Prismacolors separate from my Crayola's, and separate from my Polychromos, etc, etc. For me, those zipper cases with the elastics work better. I have one that holds,I believe 120 pencils+ and one of the same but it's bigger and not only holds about 72 pencils but a coloring book or two. That works for me because I take my art stuff EVERYWHERE! I divided my 150 Prismas between the two pencil cases, all in the order according to the back of the original Prismacolor box, please it holds a few other items. For now, that works for me. I am planning now, on getting a roll case that they sell at Michael's, that will hold all my stuff, books, pencil cases, extra pencils, my brush pens, gel pens, literally EVERYTHING! LOL! We'll see if this works. While I'm at desk, the zip cases work well. If course I'm open to any ideas for organizing all my stuff at my desk. So I really liked your storage idea!

Hi Rachel! I love your videos...I'm going through lots of your older ones and came across this one. You asked the question what the name Non-Photo Blue means - not sure if you've found out in the two years since this video but just in case....non-photo blue means that if you write on paper with it and you photo copy that paper...the blue will NOT appear on the copy - hence the name 'Non-Photo Blue' - just means you can't photo copy it. Thanks, Heidi

Yes all my pencils are in cases. I have over 10 sets of pencils. Such a chore to put away. Also cutting my coloring time in half. I'm very unhappy

Awesome idea hopefully I can find something like that at my Home goods hopefully this weekend can get there. Since weather is bad here can't go until Saturday. 😔 oh I sure hope they have them then I have to find the trays can you buy the trays by themselves without getting the other piece won't need? I don't have anything just use boxes came in. Needed something badly. Thanks so much. ❤😆

I use a tall mason jar, so far. My collection is small yet. However, I really like your solution!

Do you mix brands when you have them organized by colour? I like this idea but i have a few different brands that im thinking of just throwing all together.
