Organized Make-Up Drawer

Make-up Drawer - before

Make-up Drawer - after

Before Chris and I moved in together, I had a cute little Caboodle that I toted around with my overnight bag on my (almost nightly) sleepovers at Chris’ place. It was perfectly organized with all my make-up, brushes, facial cleansers, toothbrush… I never had to worry about forgetting anything because everything just stayed in my Kaboodle and I never had to look for anything because everything had its place.

Now that we live together, I have a grown-up version of perfectly compartmentalized cosmetics:

Make-up Drawer - Labels

I got the Expand-a-Drawer® Cutlery Tray from The Container Store and it works perfectly because it:

  • expands to fill the entire drawer
  • has trays that are deep enough that my lipsticks don’t spill into my eye make-up
  • has lots of compartments, but they’re large enough to fit brushes and tools too
  • fits all my make-up and even leaves room for Chris’ stuff (boys don’t need much, do they??)

I recently lined the sections with pretty paper because they had gotten a little dingy with spillage – I love it even more now!

test… i love it!!!
