Updated Mujis (Makeup Storage) Sneak Peek

Here is a sneak peek at my current set up.




I am hoping that 4 - 5 drawers
and 2 - 2 drawers will be enough
to contain my collection.  One of the
two drawers has a hinged lid.
I opted to have that as I did not want
to have my foundations laying flat.
I am working to use what I have
and not acquire much else.
I do have separate storage for most of
my larger eyeshadow palettes.



I purchased the units over several months from http://www.muji.us/store/storage/acrylic-cases.html .
I am thrilled with the quality of the craftsmanship.
The sleek simple design compliments any decor.
Stay tuned for a breakdown of the drawers soon.
Have you purchased any of these types of systems? What is your setup like?

ORGANIZATION for brushes & makeup

Click on any image to view full size.

After a month of serious hauling, I had to find a way to organize my new treasures. I came up with some creative solutions. In the garage organization section of amazon.com, I found this 18 drawer storage cabinet by Homak

HOMAK HA01018001 18-Drawer Plastic Parts Organizer

specs.
- Heavy Duty Plastic
- Clear Plastic
- 18 Large Drawers
- 14¾" by 6¼" by 18½" (width x depth x height)



drawers are
L 5¼"x W 4¼" x D 2¼"



Reviews for the 18 drawer cabinet were average. However, most of those people purchased it to store HEAVY tools, nuts, screws & bolts. They also stored it in a garage which was not climate controlled. As I am using this in a climate controlled environment, and the items I am storing are light in weight, this is PERFECT for my needs.

I got all 3 toothbrush/mouthwash cup holders from ROSS from the clearance table for $1 each! whoo hoooo!



Clear Glass Cookie Jar is 10 1/4" High x 9 1/4"in diameter.
I used 2 bags each of
smooth stones
fish tank gravel
coarse sand.
Check your local Walmart!



UPDATE** I found the organizer for less $ @ kmart, but the website says it's blue. It was less expensive, but I'm very picky about everything matching. I needed BLACK. One ebay seller suggested I "spray it" but I really wasn't feeling very crafty. If I could buy it in the color I wanted for a lil' more $, I preferred to do that.

Here is the link to the 18 drawer Storage Unit

I saw several on ebay for less money, but they were the wrong color & I was not feeling crafty.

Here is a link to a less expensive one.
If you don't mind spray painting it, go for it!
