A little help please...

In the spirit of Shimelle's prompt for day 14, I would like to ask for some opinions and/or options for pen and marker storage.  It seems as though mine always run dry without being barely used.  I have read that instead of storing them vertically tip up that you should store them horizontally flat, but unless you put them in a drawer of some sort how do you keep them in their place?  Is it ok to store them vertically tip down?  Does anyone have any great pen storage ideas?

Whoops!

I have had a blog on Blogspot for quite awhile and until I started Shimelle's class I knew very little about it.  In fact every day I learn something new and today I learned that I have lots of comments on my posts that I have never even seen!
So to all of you that have read my posts and taken the time to leave a  comment - thank you.  I truly appreciate each and every one.  Rest assured that I am reading all your blogs too and although I have commented a few times, I want to try and comment more. 
Part of the reason that I signed up for this class because at the age of 47 I want to decrease the negative in my life and focus on things that make me happy.  Scrapbooking makes me happy, being creative makes me happy, meeting new people makes me happy, learning new things makes me happy.  Reading your blogs is like all this rolled into one!  So be looking for my comments as I forge your blogs searching for new scrappy knowledge and new people to meet, I promise to be a better commenter.
