I loooove this. So precise and tidy! Now that my epic valentine is finished I want to start thinking about how the GF can revolutionize my art supply situation. Not sure I am ready to think about tackling F360 yet though.
What a great idea!
My fundamentally morose soul loves anything that breaks with the normally cheery names assigned to colors (Broken China, Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick & Peeled Paint), but I have no idea what I’d do with them as I’ve never heard of a blending foam. And while I gave ideas about what it does (blends stuff), I’m still clueless how to use one. Also, not motivated enough to search YouTube to find out. Maybe some future day.
Turned out great! I did some holders that take 8 pads for my Distress Oxide. Works, but didn’t love the assembly of it. Chipboard was my material, also. Now need to come up with something to hold the blenders … As I prefer one handle per applicator. Or, I’m too lazy to change the applicators?
Pictures, or it never happened! I’d love to see your solution. This project was for my mom, but I may end up doing something different for mine.
Awesome!
Ok, first off … I should have taken another look … it is 2x7 storage. I used the file from Awesome SVG’s to make a set of three of these. I didn’t find it easy to connect … however the glue seems to hold it just fine. I didn’t decorate the outside at all, as I have them sitting in shelves … and they can’t be seen anyway.
My regular distress ink went into storage made on the Silhouette Cameo … and I had made:
That was before the Glowforge, of course!
Well that one looks great too! My dozens of unused ink pads are tossed into a box in the storage room.
I considered it a huge improvement when I stuck a label on the box.
That’s a great design for shelves vs a box. Especially if it fits the standard cube storage shelf design. Definitely one to consider.
Labels are awesome for unused items!
6-1/4" wide x 6-5/8" tall.
Cynd11, I am a crafter also and saw this box and would love to get my hands on your pattern. Are you selling the template?
TIA

Hi @royette, welcome to the community!
I decided to go ahead and post the designs in Free Laser Designs. You can find them here.
Thank you. Can you give a name or size of box that is used. Just so I have an idea what to look for.
Thanks again.
Click on the blue word “here” in her post…it’s a direct link to the file.
Very practical
I really want to make this but for a shelf instead of a box. Is there a file for this that can be edited to fix a different size? I have all the Distress Oxide ink pads too! This is wonderful!
Please be aware that it is against forum guidelines to ask for files. However in this particular case I have already posted them. You will find a link to them at the bottom of my original post (first message in this thread).
Oh, sorry, I didn’t realize that. I will remember going forward. I’m a total newbie and just getting ready for my GF Plus which hopefully will be delivered by the end of January. Thank you for the file in your post above. I have saved it and I’m hoping I can edit it so fit my shelf.
Thank you again! I will definitely share my finished project when it’s done.
Looking forward to seeing it! Have fun!
