Labeling Copic Markers

When I went for my two day Copic Certification I was unsure how to label my markers so I could easily see if a marker was mine.  My craft room stuff is aqua/turquoise and I knew I wanted to label my markers with aqua but just didn't know what to use.  I went to the drug store to look at nail polishes in aqua but didn't see anything that I thought would work.  I tried a Smash aqua stripe washi tape but it wasn't sticky enough and I had to put scotch tape over it.  As I was digging through my craft supplies I noticed a whale tape dispenser from K&Company (EKSuccess/Smash)  It's a shiny aqua and teal translucent tape perfect for marking my Copics. 

Copic Discovery

The only Copics I could find in Toronto were the Caio at Curry's for 3.99 (great price)  I have since discovered that Michaels has recently started to carry the Sketch markers.  All of my future purchases will be for Sketch Markers with 40% or 50% off coupons at Michaels  - which, brings the $7.99 Sketch prices pretty close to the Caio prices.

I have also picked up a few at Hobby Lobby  (Niagara Falls, NY) with their 40% off coupons.  Their regular price is $6.99.  They have a few more colours than Michaels.

Slowly collecting - Now that I have used them I understand the addiction.
