It's still makeup related...I guess.
I am not creative at all when it comes to finding ways to store or organize my makeup area. So, please don't expect too much from me in this post!
I was just tired of having to go through my drawers to get my makeup brushes out on a daily basis so I figured it was time to do something about it. Instead of keeping my brushes in a drawer, I thought I'd just put it on my makeup table instead. But it had to look semi cute.
And here is what I came up with.
 |
| Where I currently store my brushes in a drawer. A brush roll and a cheap baby wipes case. |
 |
| These are my good brushes. Borghese brushes, a gift from my sister. |
 |
| My other random brushes. Mostly mark., Avon, and E.L.F. |
 |
| Small rocks. These were left over from our fish aquarium. |
 |
| Second ingredient. A pretty flower pot. My mom gave this to me. She got it on clearance at Michael's. |
 |
| Put the rocks inside the pot. |
 |
| And here you are. |
 |
| Start adding your brushes. I put the big ones to the back. |
 |
| Here is the finished project. I have my NYX JEP in there too because it's a daily too. One brush is horizontal because it's a dual ended brush. |
 |
| She also gave me this pot. This one I'm using to grow an actual plant. |
Until next time, my Pretties!
Luv & Luk,

I've seen people do this before, but I like how you just used stuff you had around the house instead of going out and buying those fancy rocks and another container. Very nice. :)

@frugalspender19, thank you. Of course I got this idea from copying everyone else! LOL. But I haven't seen anyone use boring little rocks before. LOL. I've been into flowers a lot lately, I guess it's from trying to start a garden with my daughters, so this was very fitting for me.
ReplyDelete@Jessy, thanks. I guess it was smart since I didn't have to spend money, LOL, and I got to use stuff that was just laying around my home. So I put it to work!
Girl, I am not that creative when it comes to organizing ANYTHING! lol So you're not alone :) Actually, I love what you did here! A lot more creative than what I would have thought of myself, that's for sure! Great job. It looks really cute.
ReplyDelete@Priscilla, yeah do it and do a post on it. I'd love to see it. I am going to attempt to do some more creative things like this. I'm gonna TRY! LOL.
ReplyDelete@Huda Kaake, thank you :)My sister is the creative one. She can sew and make curtains or flower arrangements. I'd rather buy LOL. I'm seriously going to use the creative side of my brain a little more from now on. LOL.
Great methods for storage! :) The baby wipe case is so cute.
ReplyDelete@Vintage Makeup, LOL, that baby wipe case was my babies. I think it's from the dollar store. Well, it served a purpose for me!

ReplyDelete@Cathy, thanks, amiga. Coming from you that means a lot. You are so freakin crafty and creative! I'm definitely going to steal some of your ideas when I get my "real" makeup set up started :) I was going to toss that wipe case but I think I might keep it because it is very versatile and still usable. :)
