Today’s tip serves one purpose….how to get the longest life out of your markers. It seems easy, but most of us don’t do it because it’s not as convenient. Markers need to be stored lying down, not in an upright position. I’ve found that there are two easy ways to do this;
- Store them in the original case if you buy them as a set
- Obtain flat, plastic baskets to store them in. You can even get a number of different ones so that you can separate the markers by color group.
That’s it! Simple! ‘Nuff said!

I like to store mine in the clear dvd-like cases – the same ones the clear stamps come in!
Carolyn, that’s a great idea….thanks for sharing!
