I went to the dollar store and found these little bins with drawers (2 rows). I found you can pop them off, so I bought a few, and took out the drawers, and stacked them 9 layers high. Each little space where the drawers used to be is now a little solid piece for me to stik my markers in. My dad kinda laughed at what I was doing, but was impressed with my layout once I showed him

great video - I just got some copics not too long ago and love them - so naturally I can see my collection growing and will need to build something for storage - thanks for all the ideas

Nice video. It's great to see how everyone stores their markers. Some people are very creative. Some of the products I didn't even know existed. This is a great help.

Hello from Dallas. Always enjoy your channel, Sandy.

that wine rack idea is absolutely adorable!

I can tell you from at least my own experience that I used the lighting grid idea for storage and while they looked amazing in it, the grid was just a tiny bit too small and YES the lids would come off and fall inside at times. I ended up buying a dremel and a round file and filing out just a tiny bit on each of the squares to make the marker fit a bit better. It was SO much work and I don't even use it anymore. I use trays, but if I ever change storage systems, or have to take my markers mobile I'm definitely getting one of these. Thanks for sharing. I have your copic hex chart too!

this collection is BEAUTIFUL!!!

Thank you for this video. It was very interesting. My husband did make me a storage bin out of the lighting grids. And if you are not careful the cap can get stuck. I am going to get the one from the etsy dealer. Thank you! Can't wait for your class. TFS. Connie

Micheal's has wooden milk (40% off coupon) crates that can be used to hold Copic markers. I have 1 modified by adding 2 inch stripe of wood to the back of the crate making it deeper (Copic and markers will stick out about an inch). Then gluing the base back on to it. Then stained the wood to match my desk. The organizer (Milk crate sits on my desk organized/handy when I need a marker).

Thank you!! I bought that light ceiling grid and my caps got stuck too! I ended up buying a decorative box in the shape of a suitcase at Micheals and used the plastic canvas mesh as the grid. Thanks for this video!

The amount of markers is goals :D

I only have 19 markers so I only need the 36 marker case right now. I keep it upright in my closest when not in use. Other wise I keep it on my table. These are great ideas for more as my collection grows. :)

this is the answer to my prayers! I have ordered the insert for the copic bag. I have the one where the markers go in slanted and the caps come off. thanks so much!

This is sooo helpful thank you!! I’m currently keeping my copics in the bag they come in

Great idea on storage .......Thanks Sandy

I can't wait until my pens come 😍😍😍😍 I ordered them yesterday and they were posted almost straight away❤️❤️💚💚💙💙💜💜💛💛

Love the creativity!! Have to say the wine rack is my fav.

Loved this video! My Copics are in two Artbins with the marker insert that comes for them, except they have four slots I don't use because they're too tight. It works so far but my second tote is halfway full and I would like to have them all in one case so I might look into adapting some of this solutions. This was one colorful video! Thanks again.

The storage ideas are fantastic! And I am soooooo glad I draw my artistic line at not doing paper crafts! I tried stamping and the like several years back and didn’t think it would be something I did frequently. 😋 After watching this however, I WANT THEM ALL!!! 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

I love you videos! Very helpful. TFS. Be blessed and stay beautiful!! 🤗

Awesome information, thank you for sharing

Great video! Thank you! Jenn

Good to know there is also a Copic refill container insert. I may have to look into that.

Hello from Dallas. I used acrylic canning jars, laid them on their sides and used E6000 and hot glue to connect them all. Inexpensive and fun to look at.

Just started buying comics, I’m up to 36. Also just went to my first class, loved it. I did subscribe to your channel. So many great ideas.

Wow this is what Copic heaven looks like

HEAVEN . Very helpful video can’t wait to have the full set :D

Thank you!! This is a great video idea!!! I love it...

Wow such great ideas. Originally I planned to go with the stamp n storage cubbies but as my collection is growing and I seem to like to bring my markers with me I think I may go with the art bin with dividers that you showed. It shouldn't be too heavy. Helpful video.

I love your work, Sandy! I’ve begun my Copic collecting journey. I just received the Sketch 72 set B today. I still need quite a few markers to get to 358. I can’t wait to get them all; and because I have SEVERE full set syndrome, I’ll be getting them all ASAP.

I have always been told to keep any alcohol marker horizontal to keep them lasting longer! That is how I store mine! I store any two-way tip markers horizontally so keep the ink even in them!

@SandyAllnock1

Nope. People telling you that are making it up. The only ones that require horizontal storage are the Distress markers. Look at the storage the companies sell - if they sell a case or rack that holds them vertically, store them vertically. If their case holds them horizontally, store them that way, no matter what you put them in.

I keep my copics in the little clear plastic cases they came in, with the tops off of course, there are four which hold 36 each. And so far so good!, but we shall see! TFS, Annette

I use the big cosmetic bags, where I insert cut to the markers' height cereal boxes, in which I put cardboard divivers to divide markers into rows using the color family's order. I enjoy rows more than anything else. The cosmetic bags close with zippers and this way I could take my bags outside the house or go from one room to another

Awesome video

I found a perfect storage for my copics! I like them all to be in the order one by one, not in the plastic bags. So I took a little cardboard box, cut to the size cardboard dividers for rows, and put there markers in rows! Very easy and cheap!

Thank you for this video! I put my markers in a pencil case I bought from Justice 3 years ago. Lately I haven’t been able to fit my markers in it.

Good video! thanxxxxx

Thanks for the great video! I keep mine in bags by color family in a overnight cosmetic bag. I found putting them in the right slot was making me crazy! And I like to squash the pens bag around in the bag to get color combinations!

A lot of good ideas thank you...

Wonderful thanks

Your students can borrow copics!! They are so lucky!!!

I use Spectrum Noir markers, and the problem is they are hexagonal 14x17mm, where most markers are 15-16mm max, so these will not fit in by far most things unfortunately. I was thinking about some AliExpres cases, usually those with some (removable) pages/flaps, all with elastic bands to hold them, but i feel that would still be a bit of a hassle, and i don't really take my markers anywhere anyway. So i guess i too am just going to buy the Crafter's Companion ones meant for them, though i'd rather have some case i could put down normally or on the side. Guess i am gonna have to dedicate some desk space to them, on my small desk, with not so much space left. That said, my desk needs to be replaced. But, expensive.

I use the lighting grid with a really useful box. I have not had problems with the lids coming off.

I have like over 200 markers and only a hand full of refills however I am planing to build my own storage for them, I have a shelf above my desk and I plan to build the copic storage into the shelf so it's always in front of me when ever I need it, since I don't travel it works for me. I rather have the markers set up in front of me that way it's less hassle when I want to use them.

WOW……beautiful💕

I guess artists are beggars and crafters are the rich folk, who have "hubbies", cats and dogs and a million friends they can send all their thousands of handmade cards to - LOL! Sorry, I couldn`t resist because I`ve got only 2 copic markers :)))) Thanks Sandy, I love all your videos, Josi

I don't have copics (yet!) but I store my prismas in a wine rack thing from Pier imports with little cups in it and stuff. It looks pretty (in my opinion, at least) and it make it pretty easy to find what type of color I'm looking for because I can group by cup (I'm colorblind). I guess it's pretty much just the lazy woman's square rack that a lot of people seem to have, though xp EDIT: Oops, well now I see I'm not the only one! Great minds think alike!

Hi! You most likely won’t see this, but I need a bit of help. In a month my copic collection will double to 146 markers and I won’t be able to fit them all in my broken 72 case. I saw that blue suitcase thing and I really loved it, but idk if they’re still available since when I google they’re nothing. I also need a link to the Etsy shop where you got the small holder part since a lot of my markers were bought individually so I don’t have many plastic cases. Thank you!

Sandy, I have the box made out of the lighting grid. The first time I put it together I had the trouble of the caps falling off and had trouble getting the pens out because my not slender fingers could not get between the markers to pull that out. What I did to fix this is make sure that the bottom grid is almost all the way against the bottom of the box I am using. This helps so you don't lose the caps. The second grid I made sure that it is positioned a little less then halfway down the marker. This gives my fingers enough room to slightly move the other markers around the one I am pull out so I can get it. I hope this made sense. If not I can try and clarify.

@MidnightL2008

Dawn Fitch I had the same problem with my lighting grid. I placed the bottom grid on the bottom of my case and set the top grid to come JUST below where the cap opens, as I found that it was the cap that kept getting caught. It works perfectly and I don’t have to worry about being super careful or fighting to get my markers out!

I see that you have made this video years ago; I would like to ask you, has any of your storage needs and uses changed any?? Also, I am wondering, have you seen or come across anything that will allow me to store my markers horizontally, but hangs on a pegboard or just on the wall??

some of these were super cool!

LOL They just don't have enough colors to make me even halfway happy! LOL

Great video! Thank you. 👍🏻😃 One question though, am I supposed to have my markers standing up? Since the bag/suitcase you showed plus almost every one else in this video have them standing up.
