One of my favorite fun places to search for various organizing containers is Winners/Homesense (similar to Ross). Whenever you go the stock is always different so the thrill of the hunt is pretty exciting. This past weekend when we went I was on the search for something to organize my nail polishes in. I specifically wanted a divided container and one that was open without a lid. If there is one thing I have learned from organizing my makeup collection it’s that I do better with open containers for these type things.
After walking up and down the aisles for awhile I came home with this lovely yellow nail polish caddy.
To make life even easier I added a spot of the nail polish to the bottles with black tops (using a q-tip) so I wouldn’t have to lift up each bottle just to find the color I wanted. Why don’t all companies label the top of their nail polish bottles?

LOL, I organize mine by leaving them at the nail salon. I stop by and visit them once a month!!
Laura says
Hahaha, that definitely requires less storage space 🙂

This is such a fun idea – I actually have a very similar set up: http://www.formosaspain.com/2012/06/bathroom-organization-drawers-again.html

I love adding the spot of polish to the tops. That’s brilliant! 🙂 Thanks!
Kristen says
Honestly, I’m really quite intelligent (LOL!) but how did you get the color on the lid of the polish? Q-tip? My brain is much these days and I’m trying to picture your super powers!! 🙂
Kristen says
See? MUSH. Mush brain. I’ll blame Steve Jobs for that one…..
Laura says
Hahaha, actually that is a very good question because when I went to do it I really had to think about it lol. Yes a Q-tip worked great for this 🙂
