- So I think you guys know that over the years, as my colored pencil and supply collection grows… that I’ve been struggling with a way to not only house it all, but to keep it very accessible to me while I’m coloring.
Today… I’ve come up with a new solution and I’m very excited to share it with you guys… so stick around….

![*SUPER RARE* THE PARADIGM IS BACK?!?!? Fortnite Item Shop [August 6th, 2024] (Fortnite Chapter 5)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/ru6xSH1RaPw/mqdefault.jpg)
I keep my pencil sets in various sized slotted cases. For me, they work out well. My desktop is large enough to keep the cases, my pages, lamp, & cat all in place & leaves room for the tea.
I learned to number my pencil slots from another RUclipsr & it helps me re-order my open stock pencils. The other thing I like about the cases is that I can always grab 1 & a book to go!
I really want to do this but I have like one of each colour so I’d just have one pencil in a box
I have tried so many things to store my addiction 😂, but I always go back to color groups in mugs or jars, lined up in front of me on my work table. When coloring in the evenings, I have a caddy next to my recliner that holds my jars of color grouped pencils. Your new system looks so neat and tidy, but I guess I must face the fact that I like to see the pencils and have them right there ready to snatch up. I will anxious to hear how it works for you.
I definitely need a new system. My prisma pencils are still in their box they came in and my 100 crayola pencils are in a large bin I got from the dollar store. I live in a small apartment and I color using a small table that folds up that my wheelchair just barely fits under lol. Oh the things we put up with for our coloring joy 😁
I did something, somewhat similar, however I bought a 10 drawer cart at Michael's and also 3 sets of trays. You can fit 3 trays in 1 drawer. The cart was $30 but I can fit all my coloring supplies and able to wheel it around the house wherever I choose to color. I do need more trays but they were out of the blue ones so i will have to wait till they come back in stock. thanks for giving me somewhat of an idea with the trays.
I think I have pencil OCD. I can't mix brands at all. It makes me shudder to think of it. I keep the bigger sets in elastic loop cases and the smaller sets of things in their tins. I really mix brands in a picture either. I choose the picture and pick the pencil set I think will suit it the best and stick with it.
That's not OCD, that's just being particular.
🤔 hmmm... I can’t mix brands/sets either and I DO have OCD; it’s on my medical chart 🤷🏻♀️
@@simplypatti6705 your OCD causes you to be particular about pencils. The above person being particular about pencils doesn't mean they're OCD. Not that hard to figure out 😆
I can't do that either. Coloured pencil segregation.
@@lilmissmonsterrr it is actually ocd .
I have too many sets of pencils to get them all in the individual containers. I switch pencil brands so I can give them all some love. Therefore, I use the wallet type holders and put different set in each. But, I love this idea for all the odds and ends of things I'm always digging for - eraser, bull clip, Posca pen, etc. Thank you so much for sharing this idea! Next payday, you know where I'll be! Blessings!
I keep mine in pencil cases/pencil wallets. The pencils are kept safe and secure in the elastic loops and I can keep them in order and reach for the one I need with no hassle.
She said she didn't like those.
I went to Michael's and got several sets of the Marker storage cases. They hold 60 markers upright, but the cool thing is that each slot holds 4 pencils perfectly. So each holder holds a whopping 240 pencils. This is the best idea I have ever found so I can group all my colors and they are so easy to find and pull right out.
I'm so happy you finally found something that works for you! That set up is really perfect!
Great idea. Love organized craft supplies.
I have the same mint green storage bin. I love it. I'm always creating my own stickers and such since I'm really big into scrapbooking. Beautiful system you got there !
Love this! Congrats!!
I keep mine in a lazy Susan utensil holder. It has several sections and levels. I can see them all.
Beautiful job! I love your idea and I think it would work for me. Thank you for sharing this with us!❤
Brilliant idea. I like how you labeled the bins. I have such limited space where I color but this video was very interesting. Thank you for sharing with us.
I hand painted 5" terra cotta pots that sit on a shelf in front of me. Each pot holds many many pencils. All the colors are right in front of me. Works pretty well and looks nice too.
Cool video! My daughter is the pencil lover. I’m the marker lover. This would work great for markers as well.
Great idea, thanks for sharing your journey of having accessible storage
AWESOME!!!! I would love to have that on my desk. Great job !!!!! TFS
Absolutely fab idea, and fab video 😊
me: *makes this diy*
*each tray has one pencil*
If your boxes were clear, it would be easier to see what colors are in them. Good idea though
Wendy W they’re literally labeled lmao.

Glad you found a solution that seems like it will work for you. It is so pretty!! I have all my supplies in a rolling ikea cart with pencils in smaller zipped cases on the middle shelf so they hardly take up any room. I like the small 72 slot cases because I usually colour in a living room chair so I can tell if I am missing a pencil at the end when I put things away and I can have several cases open around me at once. As I work on a page, I keep the pencils I am using in a round clear container. The top of my cart has all my extras in jars and other holders.
Love this! Great idea.
I’m glad you found something that will work for you (for now 😅)... i store mine in the book type pencil cases because i like to see them in order, by brand, it helps me see all the colors better and i’m the type who puts up the pencils right after use anyway, so it’s perfect for me. All my other supplies are in my drawer where it’s easy for me to reach out to them
Really like this, love those shelves!
I like this idea. I think I'll try something like this that fits m storage issues. Thanks for sharing.
great system!!!!! I have found lots of things at goodwills, and the dollar tree! 3 bins for a buck!!! those silverware trays ect. I found a old cart that must of been for old printer for 25 bucks and will accommodate my pads of paper and the shelves pull out. Totally love the system you set up!!
This is the cutest idea. I have all of my colored pencils divided by colors with elastic hair bands and then I have them stored in these metal tins. Not the most convenient thing, but at least I can store them in one place and keep up with them. I like your idea much better.
Looks great, neat and organized. I just started with adult coloring so all of my pencils are in a basket from Harry and David that contained the baked goodies my brother and sister-in-law sent to me for Christmas. I am glad you spontaneously found the perfect solution for you. Isn't awesome when that happens. Keep warm!
I love your idea! This is exactly what I need.....
I keep mine in cases, I don’t have enough desk space yet for a system like yours but I love the way you’ve stored them xxx💕
I think this could work either in a wall mounted shelf or a shelf next to/under your desk. Ikea has those paper organizing inserts for kallax shelves that could work great for this.

PencilStash: *IM BORED OF THIS, TIME TO UPGRADE!*
Great idea, great video 💖
I thoroughly enjoyed your struggles and solutions, all with gentle humour. I currently live in a total mess, with ink pads in ice-cream tube, pencils in a variety of containers, paper and card stock in expanding (but not expanding far enough) folders, which look to be on the verge of splitting. My table is inaccessible, and my craft area doubles as my food prep space - about 15 inches square... I know I must organise it all, but where to begin! I began my hobby as a way to get my mind off metastatic cancer, and now it has become the problem! Oh well. Thank you for the ideas you've given me, I'm sure I shall work it out, now that your video has entertained and amused me on this bright but cold morning! 😃
Great idea! I'm in the process of a renovation where I will have a dedicated coloring area. Always good to see what others are doing for storage. Hope you survived our frigid weather here in Chillinois these past few days!
Lovely idea 👍
Looks awesome :D
Hi My Name is Kira And I'm 13
I'm addicted to collecting paper.
I too have five sets of colour pencils , Inktense ink blocks as well as the Caran dache Neocolor crayons . I like to keep them in their original boxes because I don’t have very large sets . My largest set is the 60 polychromos pencils . However once my stash increases I too will have to think of Creative storage solutions . Love your cubbies ! I was in Chicago for a month and returned back only ten days ago ! Love the place . My Daughter lives there . And I visit at least once a year .
Congrats & well done! I have 2 Global Art cases, pencils. Acquired a 3rd, larger case for markers. Had a super fun coloring time w/ my friend yesterday. She’s just beginning. Ty!
Great find, i love your pencil storage! i have been going crazy trying to figure out a system. my newest is in the form of school supply boxes i found on clearance for $0.10 each, i bought 12, finally all my pencils from one grouping fit in one box, with plenty of room for shuffling around for the pencil i want....the storage for said boxes still a work in progress 😁
Love it!
I like your system, but it doesn't really work for me. I'm a colored pencil snob, and I keep my Prismacolors separate from my Crayola's, and separate from my Polychromos, etc, etc. For me, those zipper cases with the elastics work better. I have one that holds,I believe 120 pencils+ and one of the same but it's bigger and not only holds about 72 pencils but a coloring book or two. That works for me because I take my art stuff EVERYWHERE! I divided my 150 Prismas between the two pencil cases, all in the order according to the back of the original Prismacolor box, please it holds a few other items. For now, that works for me. I am planning now, on getting a roll case that they sell at Michael's, that will hold all my stuff, books, pencil cases, extra pencils, my brush pens, gel pens, literally EVERYTHING! LOL! We'll see if this works. While I'm at desk, the zip cases work well. If course I'm open to any ideas for organizing all my stuff at my desk. So I really liked your storage idea! I'm going to definitely keep it in m mind! I LOVE your channel! I used to watch a lot if different channels, but I think I'm down to just yours and Coloring Bliss. Both you and Jennifer have taught me SO MUCH! Thank you for your videos and tutorials! I really have learned a lot from you!
Thanks for sharing the link for the sticker paper! Great Video!
Love your solution it is great! I have the same problem!
This rocks. If I had a desk to work at I would be copying these in a hot minute. I work out of my recliner or in my bed at the moment. It's all good. Because of that I have several of the accordion storage book thing'ees. I also store my Guan Ghui's in a roll up case. I hate the roll up thing. I'll be replacing that soon...probably with another accordion book ....say it with me...thing'ee. ;0). I live in Menomonie, WI and we are getting dumped on with snow...hope you are doing good down in Chi town. :)
I store mine in acrylic makeup drawers, love these! Found them on amazon. Cheap😉
That’s a great system. It rocks
Love this idea!!! I use old peanut butter containers simply because I wasn't to recycle them. But love this idea so much!
That’s really neat. Thank you for sharing.
Wonderful idea!
Cute idea! I use utensil caddies/baskets where the pencils are standing up. Very portable and holds more than pencils. I color In several different areas and I need something mobile. I use multiple pencil brands but FC Polys, Holbeins, prismacolors, and Caran d’ache Pablo’s are my favorite. I would love to see you do more videos with FC polys!!! I also have recently gotten into Copic coloring and it’s a true struggle keeping my supplies organized yet handy. Love your videos!!!
Wow this looks really neat! I currently have just one box of pencils so I keep them there XD
Wow!awesome idea ..def need to try it out too.I still keep my colored pencils in their boxes..mostly but my prisma colors I have in a medium sized soft case that has slots but it doesn't hold too much😓Thank you for sharing with us☺👍🏻❤✍🏼
I love this idea. Im the type of person that keeps almost all the pencils in their original packing. Not very convenient when I’m coloring. I’m gonna work on your idea 💡 👍🏻
Omg I love it!!!! 😱 I store my pencils in the zippered cases. But my gel pens are what I use every day and I have them stored in water bottle holders called MDesign stackable vertical water bottle holders that I saw on Coloring Bliss. I got them on Amazon.
I love this system! The personalised labels look wonderful. I keep my Prismacolor pencils in a Derwent Canvas satchel in number order so I can find the pencils I want easily. That’s because I follow different colourists who use these pencils, so it’s easy to find the ones I need. I would like to use your system with other sets of pencils though. It may mean that I use them more often.
I keep my pencils in books, sorted by brand. There's not enough room on my desk for a set-up like yours, though I like what you've done. While at work, I stand the pencils I'm using in an old coffee mug. Everything fits into a tote bag so I can do my colouring in various places around the house.
Great system. I have a Home Goods near me will have to check it out. Thanks Rachel I have my pencils in cases right now but it is a pain when to pick colors. So what I do is I got a pencil holder from the dollar store and put my colors in there so I don’t have cases all over my desk
Nice! Storage is always an issue with hobby supplies!
I just use a bunch of small pencil cases with embroidered color names on them and I honestly love them, but your storage is gorgeous! Also it looks so practical. I sadly have a tiny desk, so I have to use what I've got.
Cool solution. TFS
Great storage solution, i think it will work for you, and, bonus, if you need to expand, you can turn your shelves upside down, thereby using a bottom as a top and get another row for bigger items or another 3 pull out trays :o) I use the pencil cases, my prismas (same pack) fit into 2 of them and they don't take up much space, are easily transportable if needed and the pencils are protected from clashing together and chancing breaking the leads.
I liked your video so I subscribed. I also love colouring and use copic markers, pencils and pretty much anything i can get my hands on lol. have fun with your new system. PS: Your video was full of great ideas, i'm sure many people will adopt lots of them as they need to.
I love this idea and think it will work great for you. I have such a small area that I have to use the annoying pencil cases. I would love a look see if your whole coloring area and other storage ideas you have.
I use the same trays you do the ones from Michaels, but I just stack them on a rolly hobby cart that I also bought at michaels they are sorted by color group and brand. I used to keep them in zippered books but it became too much of a chore when it was time to put them back in the proper order and it was more difficult to mix sets together. Hope your new system works for a long time!
Wow that's perfect! I'd put another board across the top so you can use the top as display space ;) when it warms up. I use the derwent carry all case. Not perfect but I like to take them when I travel. I need a duplicate set of pencils and use your system too lol!
I love this, thanks
Love what you did .I use storage cases and put the wholeness that came in each one ,yeah I have a lot of bulky cases and if I had a desk itwouldwork. But Alass I am bed bound and a hospital over the bed tray table is my desk I works as a eat,write ,color,office,one end used for things I need close so not much room left for work on coloring books or supplies.I am still trying to find a way to make it work.love yours but no .com Idreamofa big room to hold a big desk . Ahhh lottery time 😊 love ur channel.hugs wendy
EXCELLENT!!! THANK YOU!!!!
I have everything in coffee cups but I am running out of space as my collection is growing! This is a great idea. 😊
Like you, I seem to be constantly evolving with containing and using my colored pencils. Currently I some in a very cigar-box like box some in two different zippered notebook thingies, some in the containers they came in and some in a couple of plastic containers. I have several sets of pencils. I'm not sure, but I think my craft room might be shrinking. Oh, well, I love colored pencils and a woman can NEVER have too many. ;-)
I agree!!! You can NEVER have too many colored pencils!!😍
It's looks great
I found a metal drawer stand up storage at Michael's the bins/drawers were already rainbow colored so I grabbed one and it works well for me. It also has wheels so I can easily move it to where I'm coloring.
Hi! Your video was randomly recommended to me because I love watching art organisation videos but your setup looks pretty neat! I think the only problem I "could" see with this in the long run is having to pull all the boxes in and out all the time and dig through a container of pencils to find the one you're looking for. If you're still open to suggestions you could go for something like Baylee Jae does with her markers in this vlog! I know markers and pencils are different but it still could be useful!

VERY NICE!!!!!!!
Great idea! Thanks.
Great idea. TFS 😀
Hi...good idea. I just store mine in empty Crystal Light containers. Thanks for sharing. Mil.🙂👍🏽
That is really cool but I agree with Claire, you still have to grab the entire bunch out! There's no perfect solution. I'll stick to the old pencil cases & fight putting them in😜. I still keep kicking around putting them in cups by color but kinda tried that & knocked them over too much!! I like having all my brands separated but want my colors together😝. Can't have it both ways unfortunately. I'll keep watching your videos until you master it😊
Nice idea, very neat but I wouldn't have paid $24. Right now I use plastic disposable cups which are ok. They're grouped as reds/oranges, blues/purples, greens/yellows and grey/browns, plus another cup for my blender and extras like posca pens etc. I also have a cup with gel pens which I rarely use. They're all in a plastic basket from a dollar store. The cups tend to fall over when I take one out so I'll have to find a better way to store them or heavier cups.
Very crafty and creative! I keep all my coloring supplies in a drawer. If a pencil set I have comes in a tin, it stays in the tin for easy storage. Otherwise, the pencils go in a pencil case.
This turned out so cute!! I love it! I have some of mine in these cute little cans that fit in a basket....but I'm overflowing it. I need more than 5. I have some in some little stacking baskets, but I need more of them too. How do we collect so much stuff? :)
I like your way of storing your colored pencils. Right now I am working on doing little swatches for my colored pencils, gel sticks, crayons, and markers. I am re-using Temptation cat treat little 16 oz. size treat containers. I do like your method also. The only problem that I have with my way of storage is with having short colored pencils. An also a large enough bin to put all of the different colored storage units in. I don't know how many colored pencils I have. I just bought a new set of Staedtler colored pencils the 72 count set and I haven't even swatched them yet. The only reason is because I am working on my other sets of colored pencils swatches. What brands of colored pencils do use? I have Faber-Castel Metallics, Crayola, very few Prang, Hand Made Modern Metallics, Rose Art, Artist's Loft, Cra-Z-Art, Timeless Creations which I think is Cra-Z-Art also which at the time didn't know about that they were the same, very few Laurentien, very few Derwent, Sargent Art, a few Aquarelle, Create Like Crazy, and Color your way to calm. I would like to get all of the brands but buy the largest set of colored pencils. I also collect coloring books. Would you have any recommendations on colored pencils and coloring books. I have some like Johanna Basford's coloring books, etc. Please send any recommendations to my email address: flower85345@gmail.com
Thank you for the information and the video.
Awesome idea hopefully I can find something like that at my Home goods hopefully this weekend can get there. Since weather is bad here can't go until Saturday. 😔 oh I sure hope they have them then I have to find the trays can you buy the trays by themselves without getting the other piece won't need? I don't have anything just use boxes came in. Needed something badly. Thanks so much. ❤😆
I keep mine in the original Prismacolor 150 box. I have to look at my swatch chart, pick my colors, then I put them in a jar and as I use them I put those colors in another cup after I write the name number and where used on the picture. I would like a desktop cabinet that holds two Prismacolor trays side by side and have four drawers. Basically like the 150 box.
I absolutely love this idea, I just wish I had access to stores that sell the trays. One problem of living out in the middle of nowhere, no shopping centres close by.
This was like listening to an audiobook of a fairy tale. It was narrated so expressively. All that was missing was "And they lived happily ever after..." at the end. ^_^ You could be a voice actor!
Genius!!! I’ve got to get to Hone Goods!
THANKS for sharing!
Hi Rachel! I love your videos...I'm going through lots of your older ones and came across this one. You asked the question what the name Non-Photo Blue means - not sure if you've found out in the two years since this video but just in case....non-photo blue means that if you write on paper with it and you photo copy that paper...the blue will NOT appear on the copy - hence the name 'Non-Photo Blue' - just means you can't photo copy it. Thanks, Heidi
Yes! Thank you! I had no idea - learn something new every day :)
I love this idea, where did you get the trays though, I need something like that ,
I use a bunch of Rubbermaid (for the kitchen) plastic containers. The base is clear and the top is red. I can stack them very high, I label the top and the end with the brand and if they are colored pencils or watercolor pencils.. When not in use, i keep them in a large plastic see-through bin that I can slide under my counter top.
I store mine in preserving glass jars with the silver "rim" screwed on. They fit, take up less space, all colours are visible, look nice.
Hello everyone I enjoyed your video
Very cool! I wish I had room for this. But I Papercraft and have a Diecutting machine so RIP desk space. I think your system would work great for my Polys and Inktense because I know those sets well. As soon as I see the name I know what the color looks like one coat, layered or wet with the Inktense. But with my Prismacolors ...yeah No 😞. I have to have them in order to remember what color is what. So I have them in a big case. My Polys are in a Creative Options Small Rack System stuffed in the trays. You can get all the colors in there plus extras and nubs of pencils to. It's portable which is my main concern since I don't have a designated coloring area. I'm not sure if offers much in the way of pencil protection besides the fact that I can't step on them now (trust me it hurt me way more than the pencil) but it's Polychromos. I think I could use one as a chisel in a pinch, and the core would be just fine 😄 lol! My Inktense are more delicate so I keep them in a pencil case. I would prefer to keep my Polys and Inktense together in something portable though. Thanks for the Great Video! 😃
Wow that’s a good storage system girl, by the way please take care with the frizzing temperatures there in Chicago. I think you would use that system for a long time, I’m still using the wallet one but I have one for my prism as, one for the blick’s and one Por the inktense , have you try those? Thanks
I only use pencil cases because I they keep my pencils secure. I have different cases for each brand of pencils I own. My favorite pencil cases are Btsky I buy from Amazon.
I got myself a very large pencil case, 120 slots....it hurt my fingers getting the pencils in and out the elastic WAS SO TIGHT. so, they are sitting back in their designated tins waiting for me to come up with something else......Then i saw your video!!! Thank you for sharing and giving me some extra ideas.
