Step1: The Design

Preview

2 More images

Start off by creating 12" x 12" square because I know this is my work space I want to work with.
- This square is just a guid for all the other objects and will be deleted later
Add your text at the top
Add a small square and click Grid Array
- Adjust the rows and columns by how many you will need as well as the spacing
  - For this design I did 60 squares for 60 paint pens
Next I add the number “1” and placed it centered over the first square
- Again back into Grid Array and adjust to the rows, columns and spacing
Ungroup the number 1's when you are done
Now you will need to go individually to each number 1 and relabel them (2,3,4,etc)
once you have everything how you like and how many boxes you need you can delete the outer box
set your engrave settings for the numbers and title
- the boxes can be set to score
- if you want this to be a fast projects set your numbers to score as well

Step2: Paint & Label

Next you will need to paint inside your boxes and label your paint pens with corresponding stickers with numbers.
I keep my chart next to my paint pens and keep them in the same order on my paint pen holder to make it easier for grabing and painting
