Cool new storage & an act of kindness!

Oh yes its here again, Slipper Day!!!
I have got mine on, hope your with me gang...

I wanted to show off my new pen storage and tell you about a nice lady.
This is my pen box- it is the only one you will need because it will hold more than 600 pens!


As you can see mine holds all my Promarkers and some flexmarkers, all the Copic ciao pens and a few sketch, also in there are 140 Prisma pencils and my Sakura pens, and there is still plenty of space for me to add more Copic Sketch and Flexmarkers to my collection.

Now, when this arrived I couldnt wait to get it positioned and filled, but in my rush to get up the stairs it had a fall!!!!
Milly Posh Paws was on her litter tray in the hall at the time too, luckily she is a fast bunny!
 Yes there were tears, I sat in the corner with my arms crossed and sucked my thumb and everything, then I did a more grown up thing- oh yes I did!
I asked my friend Dan to try and fix it for me, and as you can see from the pic it looks as good as new,the damage has been very cleverly disguised.
When I told Vicky about what had happened she was so kind, as a crafter herself she knows how it would feel if you get something totally cool and then you break it, so she very very very kindly sent me this rack for Stickles Glitter Glue as a pressie!
THANK YOU BIG MUCH VICKY!
As you can see I am using mine for my Cosmic Shimmer Pearly glues instead,they are great stored upside down because it reduces the possibility of air bubbles when you use them.

Are you a tinsy bit jealous,are you? Then go and get your own, and check out the other storage stuff too...

Have a good one!

  5. Sorry about the pen storage, but hope you are okay. That was very kind of Vicky, a thoughtful person makes such a difference to how you are feeling. I am jealous of the storage, give me a pet for me and enjoy.

  6. Oh, Maria, I hope you are feeling much better after your fall. Great though the storage is, it is better that is is damaged not you. I think my DH might get a bit cross with me, when I ask him to make me some storage for my Stickles. I will have to be slightly different though, to fit where I want it. At the moment, he is cleaning the outside of the caravan so I think I had better not mention it for a while. Take care of your self. xx Maggie
