Updated Storage of my Stash!

I was posting on a few of my facebook groups that my current bottle count is 1,013, so I had a few iquiries as to how I store my stash. So here is an update, If you want to see how it use to be in February you can find my post here. All right here we go...

For all of my storage I use the Melmer cubes from Michael's. I have a total of 6 3-Drawers cubes and 2 4-drawer cubes, for a total of 8 cubes. I just recently added the stuff on  the front of the drawers. IT was drawer lining that I got at the dollar store. It worked out really great. I still have a couple drawers to do. 

Here is the main tower:
 
 There is a basket on top of the tower with a few random polishes
 Drawer 1: China Glaze

 Drawer 2: China Glaze

 Drawer 3: Spoiled and Wet N Wild

 Drawer 4: Orly and FingerPaints

 Drawer 5: O.P.I. and Nicole by O.P.I.

 Drawer 6: Sinful Colors

 Drawer 7: KleanColor and Julep

 Drawer 8: Sally Hansen and Pure Ice

Drawer 9: L.A. Colors, Savvy, and Avon

Here is the second tower:

 Drawer 1: CVS Glitters, Random set, NYC, Rimmel, Hard Candy, L'oreal, and Jordana

 Drawer 2: Ulta, essie, Milani, and Confetti

 Drawer 3: Revlon, Nina's Ultra Pro, W7 and Nabi Magnetics. in the little basket is Hard Candy and O.P.I. minis
 Drawer 4: Love & Beauty, Claire's/Icing, Crackle polishes

Drawer 5 is currently empty.

 Drawer 6: Holds all my spare/backup bottles and polishes I have for swap/sale.

Drawer 7: Holds all my glitters
Drawer 8: Holds random lotions and other items

Drawer 9: Holds my empty bottles, polish pens, and other random items
Drawer 10: Holds my spare cotton balls and cotton rounds and small bowls for water marbling

My Polish Station:
 I use this cart to do my nails. The top has a layer of clear drawer liner so I don't have to worry about acetone ruining the cubes. Both of my towers and this cart all have a wheel base on them so I can easily move them when ever and where ever I want.

 The top of my cart holds my bottles of acetone and pure acetone. The holder with the peacock feather holds my nail art brushes. Next to that you can barely see my Q-tip holder  and then the jar next to that holds my files, old crap brushes, scissors, a pen and marker. The green bin holds other small things like tweezers, nippers, random nail wheels, some rhinestones, and who knows what else lol. I just painted my nails before taking these pics so you can see everything that I used (minus the black polish.
 Drawer 1: Nails treatments & top coats, Color Club, random Dollar store polishes, Frankens, Sally Girl, Orly minis, and a couple Pure Ice & Wet N Wild polishes. I also store my nail wheels in the back of the drawer and I have my striping tape in here

 Drawer 2: Butter London, Material Girl, Jessie Girl, Essence, Color Mate, Zoya, Maybelline, the rest of the drawers hold a bunch of other polishes that I only have a few of.

 Drawer 3: Holds my nail art pens and polishes and most of my glitter and flakie polishes

Drawer 4: Holds my nail wheels
Drawer 5: Holds my cotton balls, cotton rounds, Q-tips, lotion, cuticle remover and other random items
Drawer 6: Back up Q-tips, scrapbook scissors, nails buffers and files
Drawer 7: Polish thinner, makeup sponges, Stamping plates (red photo album) and stamper, and a few random treatments.

  1. I can't believe you built up your collection so quickly! I remember when it was a lot smaller! I love what you did with the drawer fronts; they look really cool.
