I personally think tupperware type containers makes the most sense since they seal out air that drys out paint. |

Elmo, Thank you. I wish I had known about this forum when I just started using watercolours some months ago. Now I shall beg for help on techniques as well. |

Pattygrafton and marie, I thought about using small tupperware pots, but all the rest of the tubes fall out of order. I had a look at the tackle boxes on the internet; they have foam to hold things. I am warming up to this idea. |

I use a 1 lb. round margarine tub. Since I have about 20 tubes of paint, I can fill it completely and have the tubes stand upright. |

That sounds like a good idea; I shall explore this idea further. |

I use very plain fishing boxes. I believe they are ordinarily used for storing lures. (I don't know anything about fishing.) They are really cheap, and they are the perfect size for paint tubes. |

There are all manner of brush and bottle storage boxes, carousels in the market, I haven't found any trays/boxes for watercolour paint tubes. Any suggestions? |
