Even if you don’t have all of the pens, you can organize everything you DO have in this 108-pen tote. This case is now available for individual sale on Tombow’s website here – you can use the coupon code here too 🙂
I was previously using the 96-count desk stand, but this guy is even better – it’s super portable because of the top that snaps on and has a handle… Plus, it folds out into 3 sections and you can spread it out to line your desk or make it fit the area you’re using.
Anyways, I made a color locater guide for the last desk stand, so I figured I should definitely make a new guide for this one too! I followed the ‘Dual Brush Pens Color Chart’ from their Blending Palette, but the grid was a LITTLE different, so I ended up wrapping the greyscale pens around the right edge.
Once you get the guide printed, you can color in the squares to show ‘true’ color, because unfortunately some of the Tombow caps colors can be deceiving. They may look different on paper.
The printable has 6 separate grids, some are labeled with the colors and some are blank. You can choose which ones you want to use. You may want to organize them a little different! Watch the video to see everything explained- and how I want to decorate the box top.
The Process...
Extra Tips:
- Tombow only makes 96 dual brush pen colors, but there are 108 spaces in this case – you can add others like Mono drawing pens, highlighters, fudenosuke pens (my fav!), etc. OR you can add some duplicate (or favorite) brush pens.
- In the printable, there’s a square guide that you can cut out with scissors and paste to the inside of your case (like in the video). It can’t be seen when it’s all folded up.
- Print the blank grids and add whatever colors you want – in whatever order you want!
- See the old printable for the 96-marker desk stand here.
- Don’t throw away the packaging on the inside of the lid – turn it around and decorate it! (See how below)

now that tombow has come out with 12 new shades, can you update the printable so I can organize all of my tombows into the new case
I’m planning to! It’s on my to-do list — I’ll hopefully have them up before the end of the week (I’ll send out a newsletter when they’re all updated!) 🙂
This is perfect for my new pen organizer – and to think I *almost* threw out the packaging inside the lid. So glad I found your blog post. Thank you so much for this!!
I find the pens to be better than ever! Really nice!
Ugh I can’t wait to get a full set. This is amazing.
I am SO glad I found you to learn from!
Love the colors! Thanks
Bought the organizer and I love the grid you’ve provided for us. Thanks!
So helpful!
I really love this!
I need this. I’m trying to complete my set. Almost there yay!
I love this organizer and finally just bought the last of the Tombow dual brush pens to complete my collection!
This grid is great!! I don’t have all the colors yet, so this is a great way to see what colors I have (and definitely want)!
I love this!! Thank you so much for sharing!
I really like the flexibility of the new holder. Thanks for the template.
This is SO helpful! Thank you!! 🌻💜
This is awesome, thank you!!
Whitney, you are always so generous! Thank you for this. I can stop some of the frantic searching for the color I am looking for. Thanks again!
Pens excite me more than most things in life… my goal is to have all the pens in all the colors!
This is such a great idea. Clear desk = clear mind!
Awesome!
This is AMAZING!! The new carrying case looks so much better than the old stand for the Dual Brush Pens, and now mine is neatly organized thanks to this download! Thanks!!
Wow! This would keep your desktop clear and still have your goodies right there in reach & not hidden in a drawer! Love it!
Yes definitely – I’m loving it so far!
I love the grid. and I have always wondered if they make more than 96 pens. I have some of my random pens in it now but will probably re-organize to be all tombow brush pens and a few of my lettering pens and pencils this week. THIS is a great post! Super helpful! Thank you!
Yes! I had enough tombows to fill the whole thing! haha!
Such a cool idea–I cannot wait to start stocking up!
It’s so fun to see the collection grow!
I’ve been building up my Tombow collection and I started with the recent Tombow VIP box. This guide has been indispensable in helping organize my pens!
Awesome! It just makes it so much easier to see where everything is — and what exact color I’m looking for!
Love all the Tombow Brush pen organization tools! I don’t have many, but it’s so much easier to organize and keep track of as I build my supply! Thanks!
Yes – I’m way too obsessed with bags/totes/organization-y things! haha – this box is awesome!
I love this, I never know how to set up my pens. I don’t have a proper case but have mine in a Tupperware box so will add the print to the side! I love your live draws too!
Thanks Jodie! Yes – it will at least help you see exactly which color you’re looking for 🙂
