When cosmetics are crammed inside drawers and cabinets, it can be very hard to find what you’re looking for. Read on ideas for organizing makeup to help you!
Whether you want a clean vanity space with no makeup in sight or
you’re looking to create an artistic display, the makeup
organization and storage ideas below will help you tidy up your
cosmetic beauties. Many in-store bought makeup organizers are
affordable and undeniably useful, so don’t cast off the idea of
making a simple purchase or two. However, if you’re feeling crafty,
there are a couple of DIY ideas for you to consider as well.
Happy makeup organizing!
Makeup Drawer Organizer Ideas: The Great Divider
Drawer dividers have a way of instantly making your makeup drawers
look organized. Take these makeup drawer organizer ideas a step
further by grouping like items together: lipsticks with lipsticks,
blushes, eye shadows, etc.
If you want over-the-top organization, group your favorite makeup
together by product, then by brand, and then by color. Friends will
be amazed at how well you keep it all together. Even if you confine
your makeup to a closed drawer, don’t forget that you can still
display a few small items on the vanity for a decorative
effect.
DIY Makeup Organizer Ideas: Hung up Excess
Suppose you want your makeup to have a special spot on the wall:
why not create an artistic display, much like a collector arranges
miniatures on a wall-mounted segmented shelf? Or if you don’t have
a beauty board yet, get on it! Drape a metal sheet in fabric, frame
it, and hang it on your wall. Magnets glued to the bag of your
products can stick them to the board.
Sounds like too much work? We don’t think so: this shows creativity
- the frame can make a stylish statement, bringing your makeup
collection up to the level of art. Plus, you can paint and decorate
the board or wall-mounted self any way you like!
Makeup Organizer Ideas: Box of Colors
This genius makeup organizer idea is simple and chic. Wrap an empty
shoe box in pretty colorful patterned paper, and fill it with your
favorite polishes, blushes and eye shadows. Make sure to mark the
top of each bottle cap with the color inside, so you can easily
find the shades you’re looking for.
Vintage Makeup Organizing Ideas
Vintage suitcases are being used for more and more things right
now: pet beds, tables, and drawers. Now we’re giving you one more
reason to pull out your grandmother’s old luggage from its dusty
place. Open it up when it’s time to put your face on, then close it
and slide it under your bed when you’re finished.
