Super Convenient Distress Oxide Storage

Found a space-saving way to store my Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks and refills. I have a goal to make use of this product in upcoming projects. And I have struggled with how to store them and I think I have discovered a convenient way to store them and have them close at hand!

I need to use my oxides more

Yes, we all do! I forget about them!!

Do you still store your ink pads this way? Do you happen to notice if your inks pool at the bottom of your pad? Another UA-camr mentioned this, so she is now storing her pads flat. Just curious, before I reorganize again 🫤 thank you!

I'm trying to find a source on the Ranger website, but I've read before that Oxides can be stored in these tins, on their sides. I have pulled out those trays into my drawers and have not had any pulling or leaking. I'll look for more Ranger info! I've had mine on their sides for over 5 years with no problems.
Maybe other ink types would leak. For example, I keep my Stampin' up inks stored flat. The red colors have leaked when I transported to a crop.

Thanks Terry you are very kind! I don’t know why reorganizing has to be stressful 🤦‍♀️😀

Thank you for sharing the idea of taking the insert out of the tin and placing them in the drawer.

Terry Cowans 😁 I found out that for the INKS they can be stored on the side or flat. The OXIDES should be stored flat. The color could travel. But it could not. They are advising on the side of caution. Another UA-camr received an email from Ranger explaining this. If you want later in my day, I can go through my history and find her name. Happy crafting 💜
