For the dauber handles I just bought some cheap wooden drawer handles off eBay and glued a peice of velcro on each. That way I can have a handle for each colour which is shorter than the dauber handles, are easier to store and they stand up better in an old meatball packaging tray.

Thank you for sharing this storage too. I never thought to store them in bead storage cases. It’s a great idea! I love distress oxides. Was convinced to buy them after asking many card makers their opinions. Once I heard that they could be used for detailed stamping with word phrases, I was all in! I just use a foam pad under my paper, and it stamps perfectly. Thank you so much for sharing. 😊

Shame the edges are not rounded, but you could do that with a corner punch like this one: amzn.to/46h845s My favourite round punch is this one: amzn.to/48EJbCa I have this exact one, it's so so good because you squeeze it rather than push it, so much easier on the hands.

Fun storage! I bought similar cases and had switched to Rangers’ domed foams which for me blend color smoother. (And I like them better than other companies’ domed foams.)

Not sure why, seems the covers are only on individual brushes and those I can only find in Australia.

Gwen, I am reading this after I pulled my modest selections of distress oxides to make cards with stencils. I store my oxides the same way you do but I love your storage solution for the little foam pads. I have started buying brushes for inks, which I really love. I use one for each color family but could use a few more. The brushes clean really well by rubbing on a microfibre cloth or on a piece of paper so you certainly don’t need one for every cokor. I like the oxides better than the regular distress as they stamp very well. Jeannine
@CreatedByGwen
@CreatedByGwen Жыл бұрын
Thanks so much for your ideas Jeannine and letting me know what you have done with the brushes. Great to know they clean up easily, I hadn't thought of a microfibre cloth actually. I think for the amount I use my ink pads I'll stick with the warm/cool options. I feel like that would work for me. I did also just rinse my Couture creations brush out with plain water and that seems to be ok, I wasn't sure I am supposed to do that, but I just used 'evergreen bough' for a Christmas project and it was a bit dark and wanted to clean that up. So far that seems ok, no visible harm to the brush, only down side to that is having to wait a full 24 hours before using it again to make sure it is completely dry. A lot of card makers love these inks and I can see why. They are my fav for sure.
