I'm currently storing my Copic refills in one of the drawers of my Alex (Ikea) drawer units but I'm finding that I'm buying more refills lately and need a better system. Can you show me how you are storing yours?

I wish I had a solution to share. Right now my handful of refills are scrunched in the top shelf of my Raskog. Since I seem to be doing a lot of Copic coloring lately, I'm sure I'll be buying more and will need a much better way to store them. I'll be following this thread.

I am using Copics for my Christmas cards and had to buy 13 refills! It made me realize that I’m likely going to be buying more because I haven’t needed to refill many! Even with just purchasing 13, I think I’ve only got 25, but I know already that my method for storing them requires a change!

Cool system, but way overpriced! I could probably make one of those!

I use the Artbin Prism one-compartment boxes for storing my Copics and Copic refills. I have a picture of them here for you. The boxes store about 28 refills and about 50ish markers. Right now, it doesn't seem like anyone has a great price on them (I've found them at JoAnn and Amazon too), but earlier this year, WalMart had them for $4.99 and I bought a bunch of them. They can break easily in transit, as they're a more brittle plastic, but I ordered extras just in case and returned the broken ones. I use these boxes to store all my other markers too.

I've got mine in a broken clay pot - not much of a recommendation I'm afraid, other than it was free! To be fair I only have about a half-dozen Various Ink refills, so.

I bought 2 of them so it will hold all 350 refills (I don’t own all the refills but I own about 200). I love it. I use the pen holder on the top layer for all the pens and next 2 layers are my cart are the refills. Awesome quality. Way worth the investment. I can roll it around my house. I can also take the pens in that container and put it in my copic travel case when I travel for work and they are all perfectly contained. It rocks!

I just saw someone use the 36 ink pad organizer from ORGANIZEMORE. They flipped it on its side so the slots went up and down and it holds 4 refills in each of the 36 slots.
I saw it on the organizemore Instagram page. Sorry I’m not good at tech. LOL So I don’t know how to link it up. Worth checking out though I think.

I would LOVE to have the Organize More storage for my inks, but the price to ship to me is crazy insane and I just can't justify the cost! I'm telling you, you'd think that Canada was the North Pole when it comes to shipping!

Sometimes Michaels has wooden boxes (that you can repaint if necessary) in the seasonal decor section. Maybe something like that? I have a long one with 4 compartments that I have not assigned a job to yet, but it was on clearance when they cleared out spring decor.
