Nail Polish Organization

For some reason it has taken me forever to come up with a good solution for storing nail polish. I've tried so many different things like storing the bottles on their sides in drawers (which is not recommended) and using a tray (not enough room for the excessive amounts of bottles), so I decided to come up with something new. 

I went to Target the other day (because Target is magic) and went to the organization/storage section trying to come up with a solution and found this:

I love this container (links to-buy will be below), it's a stacked container that has two compartments, which is perfect for me because I can put my polishes on the top level and nail supplies (buffers, cotton pads, polish remover, etc.) on the bottom level or vice versa.

 

I use dividers on the top compartment so that the polishes won't move around and so that I can group different colors separately. They also help keep the bottles standing up-right instead of laying on their sides (which can be bad for the polish over time). 

And finally, I put some anti-slip drawer liner at the bottom of each compartment to make sure that nothing moves around, and voila! Perfect nail polish organization.

Here's where you can find all the supplies mentioned:

1. Two-Compartment Organizer (Buy Here)

2. I found the 3-compartment and the single drawer dividers at Target for about $1-3, but for some reason I can't find them online. You can find these basically anywhere in stores, though. 

3. Anti-slip Shelf Liner (Buy Here)

Spring Inspired: Bunny Nails

Spring is officially here! And what better way to celebrate than to paint bunnies on your nails? (okay, I'm sure there are better ways, but c'mon. . . bunnies so just so cute)

Here's what you'll need:

. A Base coat and topcoat

. Multiple polishes - white, yellow, purple, blue, or pink, 

and a dark color for dotting the eyes

. A nail dotting tool

. A somewhat steady hand

. Patience

 

 Step 1. Paint your nails with a base coat to make sure the polish last longer

 Step 2. Paint your nails a "base" color - I chose 'Do you Lilac it' by O.P.I, but you can use any color you want - I painted mine with two coats and let them dry completely.

 Step 3. Paint half of your nail with white polish and use the side of the brush to paint the bunny ears. 

Wait for the polish to dry completely

 Step 4. Using a dotting tool (or toothpicks), take a dark color to dot eyes, then take a yellow color to dot the nose.

Step 5. Use a topcoat and make sure your nails dry completely. 

And voila!

Here are the colors I used:

White Tips - Orly

Mellow Yellow - Sally Hansen (nose)

Do you Lilac it - O.P.I (base color)

First Class Ticket - China Glaze (eyes)

Hope y'all liked this tutorial! Comment below telling me what your favorite designs are for Spring! <3

P.S. You can paint bunnies on all your nails but I ran out of patience pretty quickly, so I just chose an accent nail.
