- G'day everyone,
I've decided to make my own Distress Oxide Ink Storage as currently they are scattered on a shelf, and not very organised.
Please head over to my website for a list of items used. www.handcrafte...
Each compartment will measure 2 x 8cm and the distress ink fits nicely into this.
Over all the finished caddy measures 14 x 12 x 24 ¾ cm.
If you haven’t done so already, please subscribe to my channel and don’t forget to hit the notification bell for new release videos. Also please share and give me your thumbs up and I’d love to hear your comments.

Thanks for stopping by, and hope to see you real soon.
Happy crafting. :)

Dear Ali
I watched several videos on ink pad storage and found your storage easy to follow. Tks Tc stay safe
Lovely idea and tutorial! That thicker cardboard looks like it may be bookbinding board. Love that stuff. I used it to build 8x11" drawers and fronts to use inside a 36-slot paper sorter! Has been great storage at my desk.
So many tutorials and this one seems the most no-nonsense and I’m so excited! I’m planning on storing mine in a drawer on their sides and this is a wonderful way to create divider slots and using cereal board is perfect! And easily customizable! Thank you!
Great idea
Ali this is a great caddy for the inks. I love using other things to make what would have been expensive storage items, especially here in Australia. I recently made a tool caddy from empty sauce bottles, bought from choice or stacks, they are cut down to different sizes and sit on an inexpensive lazy Susan. There is nothing quite as good as making your own. Thanks for this and great to hear a fellow Aussie.
G'day Patti-Anne, so glad you enjoyed this. I too also like to make my own organisation, and totally agree, Australia seems to be expensive in a lot of craft stuff. One day I'll go to America with an empty suitcase. LOL. Crafty Hugs.
Just made my own according to your “recipe” and I couldn’t be more pleased.
Thank you very much.
After watching ink storage DiY videos all day, I found yours to be the best. TYS
Thanks Alicia for the feedback, i’m glad you liked it. For me, this is easy to use and keeps my inks staying organised. Crafty hugs. Xox
Just bought some Distress Inks and was searching for storage ideas and your post popped up. This is great and I’ve just spent my weekend making one. I recycled some Amazon boxes and wrapping paper, I think it turned out great and saved me loads of money. Thanks for the idea and instructions 👍🥰
Lesley Teather well done! Hope you had as much fun as I did when making it. Mine is still going strong. Thanks for watching and sending some crafty hugs. 🥰🥰
Wonderful Ali. What a great way to keep your ink pads organised, visible and on hand. Recycling too! Doubly good. And l totally agree that sense of satisfaction from a project like this is so rewarding.
Hi Linda, thanks for your beautiful comments as always. Love reading what you write my fellow gold coaster. Hugs. Xox
great tutrial, i have watched a few, and this is very straight forward!! thanks so much for sharing, I think this is the one im going to make!!
Thank u for making this ink storage and sharing your steps. It couldn't have come at a better time, i have been thinking about purchasing some ink storage, but now I'm going to make my own❤
Thanks for your comments❤️ I’ve extended mine again to store the new colours that Tim has released. It’s so satisfying making something that you can use. Have fun. Xx
When I was searching for ideas I couldn't find any good one, but I finally found your channel.
Thank you! This is perfect!! Tfs.
Very nifty idea which I think I’ll try making one, but with a thicker cardboard box from food & I will let you know how it turns out...Thank you so very much for sharing!!!
Take care, 🦋 Lily 🦋
I was thinking about making something like this for my inks, so this is really helpful, as you've done all the measuring and working out for me! Many thanks, have subscribed.
Wow...you thought about everything! Very nicely done!
Brilliant idea!! Looks totally AWESOME!! Thank you for sharing! 🦋
How awesome to make your own storage, thus saving more to spend on crafts- I love it- subscribed - Thank you xx😀
Welcome to my channel Lynn. Crafty hugs. Xox
Found this on Pinterest. Loved it.
Thank you for sharing, a great space saver. 👍
Just found you, thanks for sharing a great use of recycled products for ink storage 💜
Excellent project. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent DIY...!!! I was just surching for this kind of pads storages. Thank you so much for sharing.

Hi Christine. Thank you for your lovely comments. Hi to you in France, from the Gold Coast. Crafty hugs. Xox
I made my own storage for my distress oxides and then Tim went and released his new range LOL... So something like this I could probably work with. Thanks for the inspiration! :)
Hey Chelle, glad you found some inspiration. Im just wondering if Tim will release more colours in this range? Crafty hugs. Xox
Hey Ali, I am re-watching your video... Did you hear that Tim announced that by the end of the year all 60 distress colours should be released?!
What a brilliant idea you are veeeery clever, TFS .xx
Aww thanks Dawn. I had to do something, they were driving me crazy just sitting on the shelf. Lol. Crafty hugs. Xox
Such a handy little gadget, for sure. After cutting the strips one could add the tape edging before shaping each box to make it a little easier. I think a corrugated system similar to this would make great horizontal pen storage, too. Very nice recycling. There are some simple lazy susan tutorials using a flat bottomed dish and marbles or beads if you'd want to add one. I think the pads would be more stable though. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thanks for your lovely comments. I agree actually, the corrugated system would make a great pen storage. Might have to put that on my bucket list of crafty items to make. 😁 Great idea. I did think of using marbles and a dish, but though it may not be as safe as it sits on a shelf. thanks again. Crafty Hugs. Ali xx
I love this idea!❤️♥️❤️
Thank you for saving me so much money!!
Hi Ali, I have made a single tower one for my oxide inks, I don't have as many, and this way you can make it to fit what every space you have, I have also done this for my alcohol makers, they all lay down and you see all the colours on the caps too, TFS, Cheers Anna.
Id love to do something with my markers, but had to do something with my inks first. These were driving me batty. Lol. Crafty hugs. Xox
Wonderful storage caddy Ali! Beautiful job!
Hugs Marsha
Clever idea, Thankyou for sharing.
The caddy is brilliant in design and functionality! I also love the labels you made for all four sides of each ink pad! What did you use to make your labels..the colors match each so well?!? Look forward to your response! Definitely gave you a thumbs up 👍🏻! Thank you for posting your video and taking the time to share your fully executed idea!-Lucy
Fabulous idea. Thanks so much for sharing.
Just found your channel. I really like this, I'm going to use your way, easiest non fussy one I've seen, and looks great. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thanks for sharing. Been frustrated with just stacking the inks in the drawer...
awesome storage wow when i get my new craft desk/table i'm gonna steal your idea ;) thank you for the inspiration my lovely friend 💙 crafty hugs and kisses
great job, i love your caddy. i'm in process of making one for my distress inks and oxides. i'm using some pasta boxes, ice cream boxes,... mine will be bit different, because i'll have inks and oxide of the same colour in one space and it will be hanged on the wall :) well, at least that is the plan ;)
i like to reuse materials, why buying if we can use what we all ready have ;)
hugs, Vida
Hi Vida, would love to see your finished project. I love doing stuff like this also, recycling etc. it gives such great satisfaction. Hugs back. Xox
Oh Ali! What a great idea!! I love it!! xoxo
Thank you Ali, I have just started to purchase distress ink and was wondering how I was going to store. Now I know. Cereal boxes will no longer go into the recycling bin.
Absolutely love it!! Great job!!!
Way cool!!! TFS!
Great job!
If I made this I would use a lazy Susan on the bottom for spinning it. But I dont have the Oxide inks (yet) only mini originals. Great little project, well made. FYI the thicker card you used looks like it has come from a watercolour pad.
I thought of a lazy susan, and had been searching for one for sometime, but cant find what i wanted, its like fitting a square peg in a round hole. Lol. 😂 the little felt feed on the bottom of this, makes it slip easily on the shelf. Crafty hugs. Xox
Handcrafted by Ali Do you live in Australia if so there is a place in QLD that sell a small Lazy Susan mechanism for just a few $'s. Let me know if you are interested and I will give you their name.
Gorgeous Ali, I will make one for myself. 🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️
Awesome....someday I will sort out my Oxide ink pads like you Ali...someday..!!
Love it Ali, I would add a handle to go around and over the top.
Great idea. Xox
Great project! Tfs xx Pam
Makes me wish I had all 36 of TH's inks..lol.. I'm gonna have to make one of these caddystacks for what I have anyway... might even try it on all my longer ink pads..adjust to size and quantities of colors...and store by brands or types....TFS!!♡♡♡♡♡♡ love this idea!
Hey Brenda, i love the distress oxides, i think they’re the best thing since sliced bread. Lol im thinking of doing my bigger ink pads in a separate caddy. It should be easy to adjust the size. And its so rewarding making something like this. Have fun. Crafty hugs. Xox
Good job!!
Thank you so much for sharing😘😘
Great idea will have to make a few of these. Not sure if I missed it or not but was wondering where you got labels from for stamp pads or how you made them.
Hey Vicki. I went on the ranger website and found it. Ill attach the link. I print this on a sticker sheet and cut them apart. They printed a little bit bigger that the side, but i just cut it down to fit. Crafty hugs xoxox

Handcrafted by Ali thanks Ali
I need to make one of these fore the few I have. Of course I have to convert to inches
This is so awesome tfs Ali
Great idea Ali! Will you be making one for other brands?
Will we see a craft room tour soon? 😋
Hi Natalie, yes, i will be doing a similar one for my bigger ink pads pretty soon, as i really enjoyed making this so much. Ive actually recorded a craft room updated tour, just need to edit it. Probably within the next month I’ll put it up on YT. Thankyou for your continue support. Hugs xoxo
Great! Looking forward to seeing how you are displaying your mixed media creations.
Thank you to you also for supporting my facebook page. Hugs back at you my aussie friend 🤗
Can you please give these measurements in inches?
Ali... could you by chance give me the measurements in inches for one of the little boxes? I can go from there for the other measurements... Thank you so much !! This is a great little caddy.... God bless..
Hi Nyoka. Each box, start with a piece of card stock measuring 7 9/10” x 2 2/5”, then score at 3 1/5”, 3 9/10”, 7 1/10”. Hope this helps. Let me know how you go. Crafty hugs xox
Thanks Ali.... I took it upon myself to sit down and figure out the measurements by measuring one of my ink pads... thanks so much for your help !!!
Use a metric converter
Hi Ali - where did you get your impressive multi-tasking bone-folder from please? I NEEEED one of them! xOx ~ C ~
Hi Christine, Sorry I’m not really sure where i got this, i’ve had this for about 30 years. I had it in a draw, and recently refound it. I did have two, but the other one was a bit brittle. 😞 crafty hugs. Xox
een heel goed idee mvg cathy
Thank you Cathy. 💖
What paper cutter is that?
Great idea
