Calling all colored pencil users

How do you store your colored pencils? I have the 120 prismacolor set. I still have all the pencils in the metal case they came in and truthfully it's driving me crazy to constantly have to move it and etc.
So how do YOU store yours and do you like it??

interesting question! Would be curious to see the responses you get as I, too, have the 120 set and have them in the tin. It seems like a pain to keep pulling them out when I want to use them which is OFTEN. I like that I can take the tin with me though...

Hi Danni,
I also have the 120 set and have them in a couple of highball glasses. When I have classes I put them at either end of the table (I usually just have 6 ladies) and they pull from "their" jar...and good naturedly will ask if the other jar has the indigo blue! Works great for me. I also store all 4 sets of the chalk pencils that way too (well actually I have 2 sets of the 4 sets) and my ladies play well together.

I found a really great pencil bag at Staples, it's blue nylon type material with flowers on it and is kind of oblong shaped. It has a zippers on both top sides and a blue loop on a flap that when you pull, both zippers either open or close. There's and then it has like a tongue that covers it. It fits my entire set plus the sharpener and it's so handy! I love it!

Since I use mine so much, I have the colors I use most often in a mug, I can see all the colors and their all together and easy to get to.

I have my mine in a small crock that is just the right size for them. But any type of open container would work. I store mine with the tips up.
