Today's challenge - submit something other than a card. Needless to say, I didn't make this today as it was a little time consuming. But I hope it will be an acceptable submission. I was so tired of digging through drawers for my paper punches that I decided to build something for my most-used punches that would solve the problem. This certainly doesn't hold all my punches but I can glance over and choose the desired punch in a couple of seconds. It's rather large and, therefore, takes up lots of space so I'm considering building a few small ones for other punches.
And lastly, I have to give credit where credit is due... I noticed a punch holder some time ago in Bobbye's gallery and got dimensions & directions from her. I altered mine somewhat but basically very similar to Bobby's... Thanks Bobbye!

WOW..if you made this yourself, I'm VERY impressed! Either way, it is a wonderful storage and display unit for your punches. Mine are in plastic boxes, all jumbled together! : )

WOW! This is fabulous ... I'm so jealous (hehe :>) I wish I had some woodworking skills so I could make one of these. Right now my punches are on a 5-tiered antique corner nick-nack shelf that belonged to my grandma but it is cramed full of punches and I have to lift each one up to see what the design is. You did a great job on this ... TFS.
