Rounding Up Makeup and Hair Supplies!

Posted by Laura on July 30, 2009 · 12 Comments

Updated: The winner of the Organize Now! book is Esther of My Passion!

Yay we are finally here and I’m hoping you all had a chance to purge and organize your makeup and hair supplies this month. From the comments throughout the month I think this is an area many of us needed to work on. Here’s the post I did of my own stash.

To participate in this month’s organizing round-up all you have to do is link up below to a post on your site telling us about how you organized your makeup and hair supplies. Don’t forget to include your before and after pictures. Remember to use the direct link to your round-up post and not to your homepage. That’s helpful for those of us who might not get a chance to take a peek at your post until later. Also, as a courtesy, if you are going to participate please be kind and link back to this post within your post.

Those that link up before Sunday, August 2nd at 9:00 pm PST will be eligible to win a copy of Jennifer Ford Berry’s book called Organize Now!: A Week By Week Guide To Simplify Your Space And Your Life. A winner will be chosen at random from the Mr. Linky list below.

Congratulations on getting it done! Next month is a biggie…Command Central here we come! Will you be joining us?

Cool Makeup Storage Ideas

Posted by Laura on July 28, 2009 · 13 Comments

Okay I know we’re already at the end of the month and I had fully intended to do this sooner but you know life happens. We decided to take a last minute camping trip this past weekend so adjustments had to be made. Anyhoo better late than never right? Today I want to share some of my great finds for makeup storage with you. And of course no post like this is complete without my standard disclaimer. No I don’t think any of these products are absolutely necessary to organize your space…nice yes, essential no. Sometimes just seeing a product though will give you an idea of how you could re-create or re-purpose it yourself just out of things you have around your house. Whew, now that I’ve said my peace, let’s get on with it shall we :)

Here are some handy dandy storage solutions for all that hair and makeup stuff that seems to clutter our countertops. Clicking on the picture will take you to the source.

Drawer organizers come in a variety of options including acrylic and wooden:

I love these inexpensive interlocking bins:

No vanity space? How about something for behind your door:

Or underneath your bathroom cabinet. I did a whole post on this once upon a time.

And of course really cute baskets with daisies are ideal for just about anything :)

Isn’t looking at storage products fun! I seriously could do this all day! Which one is your favorite?

Note: The Mr. Linky for Org Junkie’s Monthly Round-Up will go up on Friday, July 31st. Join us this month as we organize our makeup and/or hair products!
