Organizational Tip: Re-Inking your Ink Pads and Storage Ideas!

How do you store your ink pads, re-inkers and Stampin' Write Markers? My customer Bonnie recently asked me a bit about storage and it got me thinking we should tackle this in a post so here goes!

My storage is mostly vertical in DVD case racks from Ikea. Each Colour Family has a shelf and in there I have the 10 ink pads, one of our stamp cases with the Stampin' Write Markers and one of our retired large stamp cases for the re-inkers. Here's a picture of my Regals shelf.

VIDEO on how to re-ink your ink pads 

In the video I mention Bev Adams - an independent Stampin' Up! demonstrator in the US - who provides oodles of amazing resources like stamp case inserts. Here's a link so you can download and print some for yourself:

My Top 3 tips for re-inking your ink pads:

  1. Always buy the re-inker when you get a new ink pad. It's currently $5 and you know you won't have it otherwise when you need it.
  2. Re-ink them when you think you need to. Like windshield washer fluid in your car...don't wait for a cold sunny day in winter to do it.
  3. Check and double-check the name of the re-inker with the name of the ink pad when re-inking. You know I've made this mistake.
Happy Sunday!
