112 Slim Jims anyone?

I needed a great way to hold my copics!  

I knew I wanted them to be horizontal to keep the ink even...

That same week...my kids were dying to try a slim jim...

I caved and bought 1 container...

Which got me thinking, they would be great for my copics!

I rushed to the store and bought 6 more containers.

(and yes, my neighbor saw me at the store with my cart loaded!)

I covered them in craft paper and twill tape and then tied the 7 together!

I grouped them in color families, and I am pleased to 

announce that they are more full than pictured already!
I love them!
(the copics, I mean!  My kids are the
ones suffering with 112 slim jims!)
