Moisture Problems

[GregD]

I was getting ready for a craft show this past week. When I opened the box where I've been storing my inventory I knew I had a problem. Every one of my pens looked like crap. Moisture had collected on the metal parts and caused corrosion.
I know the solution to this problem is to put in some desiccant to asorb the moisture. Does anyone have a source for the small desiccant
packs that you find in packages? I did a Google search and found a few places. The prices weren't all that bad. I'm just wanting to look around before I buy.

Perhaps try the Damp Rid packets you can buy at most large stores?

Thanks guys. I don't know what an ac moore is but we do have a Michaels about 30 miles from here.

AC Moore is like Michaels, just more for artists, when we lived in NJ it was my favourite crafts/arts supply store. I think they are on the east coast only. Don't have them in MI.
