Decorative Storage for Dylusions Paints

I needed something to hold my  new Dyan Dylusions paints and  round blending tools.  

 

I've been watching Dyan's Youtube videos giving tips and techniques for using her new paints and got an idea for storage. I looked around my creative space and found boxes! Many of us have them, saving them for something special. They were right next to my scraps of paper, empty paper towel rolls and gelli prints. :o)  In Dyan's videos, I liked the tray she has her paints in. I found a box  in my stash, cut it to size and covered with decorative tape.  I wanted a separate storage for my blending tools - a solution that held them with the foam-up and separated.

 

I had a box that was the right height. I trimmed the sides so it would easily fit through my eBosser cutting machine to make the holes with Die'sire Essentials Dies - Circles. I  marked the placement by dipping the bottom blending tool in ink and "stamping" the box.  I then cut the holes.

 During  my decorating process, I put the round pieces back and tapped them from the bottom with a low-tack tape. I used  my Gelli Plates, a variety of StencilGirl stencils and the paints to decorate.

 

I'll save those little decorated circles for another project. I'll put them with my scrap paper, empty paper towel rolls and gelli prints.  hehehe

Take care and STAY POSITIVE!

Trena: Thanks for showing us how you made your storage items from "trash". Great job on them. Was at a Stamp Convention in MI yesterday and almost purchased the plastic round dauber container, but resisted. Now I can try to do what you did. Thanks, again!
