Ink Pad Organizer

Here is the first project in the Let's Get Organized Series: an Ink Pad Organizer! I will be making this during my Ustream class on Friday. They are made from Ideaology Configurations boxes and Coredination Distress Ink Card Stock.





Each box can hold up to 18 colors. Use two boxes to hold all 36. They can sit on your desk or insert chipbard panels, add the removable strap,s and you can take your inks with you to class or on retreat or store them away in a tidy package. During class I will make a small version (same exact construction) to make one that holds 12 ink pads....perfect for the seasonal inks!







Stay tuned..... the supply list and pattern will be coming soon!

    Wow Laura! Love this project - and so very useful! Naming the colours is a marvellous idea - I'm forever searching for the right pad! Heartfelt thanks for all the inspiration and fun you provide. Looking forward to another year of paper magic xxx

    Soo cute! I received quite a few of the Tim Holtz inks for Christmas,(since it was on my wishlist lol) and wanted to make something to store them in. This really fits the bill. I'm going to have to stop by Friday and check it out. Thanks!!

    Looks amazing Laura. I made my own ink towers for my distress inks but this is a brilliant idea, particularly if you are travelling to crops. Fabulous looking. Lee x

    Can't wait for tomorrow's class Laura! I already have a Configurations box that I bought with no purpose in mind, just to have. And now I will be playing along with you as you teach us how to turn it into another masterpiece!
