How I spent some of my birthday money

I love organizational tools. Enough, in fact, to spend precious birthday money on them.

I had been drooling over the Color Cubbies that I've seen around the stamping blogosphere and knew that someday I would have some of my own.

At first I was only going to buy 2 as I don't have a very big Copic collection yet and I thought I could use them for my SU and CTMH markers, as well. But the shipping was pretty high on 2. So I put one more in the cart just to see if it would change by much. Well, 3 was barely more in shipping than 2! So I figured I'd just bite the bullet and get 3 now even though it meant I'd have less to spend on other things.

I LOVE them!



They're really well made and packaged. Good and sturdy. And I don't think they're too expensive. It is so easy to see all of my markers at a glance now, and it's so easy to remove and replace them.

Now I just need to decide which Copics to buy so I can start filling 'em up!

  1. How fun Kim, and now you probably use them more as well! When you get ready to buy more pens try carpediem.com. Even though is says something for a price, when you go to check out it goes to something like 3.75 or 3.95...give it a go and see if it still does it!

  3. Sue, they're definitely much easier to use now! Thanks for the tip, btw! I found that to be the case after putting some in my cart. I just ordered a bunch and am (im)patiently waiting for their arrival. Carpedeim isn't the best at communication with their customers! Not a peep from them last time I ordered some markers.

    Pat, thanks!

  4. I would love to know where you purchased your Copic organizers. I think they will be next on my list of must haves.

  5. Cindy, I bought them at the website I linked to. I'm not sure they're available anywhere else. I LOVE mine! Hope you enjoy them, too!
