Thank you Kimibos....I like being able to readily see all of the shades.  I never dreamed that I would need two stations.  It's partly your fault, and cartoonchic and the rest of the lovelies on this thread!  Honestly, I love being kept apprised of all the amazing colors...I wouldn't have it any other way!

I tried doing that but my OCD kicked in cause I didn't have boxes for a few of them. That's a great idea about the basket. I'm going to dedicate a drawer to the seasons untrieds. 

 

Here's how I store them now.. they are all ok except for the first drawer it drives me nuts when I'm trying to find a specific color.

 

 Sorry for the nail spam! lol

Thank you honey on boost!  Mine are in a spare room that we currently use as a den/office.  When we renovate our house it will become my walk in closet/dressing room.  I didn't put them in our bedroom because I didn't think it was fair to the hubster.

So, so true. Me too! I should be in bed now but I wanted to make a label for my new lippie. I ordered MAC's 'Sin' several weeks ago. It was back ordered, I heard nothing from MAC & then it showed up today. Now I'll give it's rightful home with the rest of my burgundy lippies.

This is such a great way to store NPs! I'm happy enough with my Helmers (sorted by brand, because different shaped bottles in the same drawer drive me bloody mental) but sometimes it's a pain to find a particular colour. I put little stickers with polish names on the caps of some polishes (BL, Nails Inc, Catrice etc) but I can't do that for polishes like ChG or OPI.

That's Alex, right? I have the tall one, but I use it for storing makeup. I love it! But I feel your pain re: finding a specific colour.

 

What are the polishes between the BLs and AEs in the first drawer? Misa? Or Ozotic, but the bottle looks a bit too fat for an Ozotic.

Do you have a hidden camera in my flat? icon_eek.gif

 

There's nothing more relaxing than reorganising one's makeup stash. Particularly when there's tons of work that need to be done. Pure escapism! th_e2cloud9.gif

Yep it's the Alex. I have two of them one for makeup, packaging and backups and the other for my Nail polishes and hair stuff. Those are Lynnderella's :)

Not that I bought any, of course. Thanks to my unparallelled willpower I resisted the temptation to buy even more nail polish...

 

... and I got a shedload of Real Techniques brushes instead! I wanted to try them for ages. And with that, ladies and gentlemen, I declare myself well and truly skint ohboy.gif

 

There seems to be a load of online offers ATM! I had another, 21% off, code for Lookfantastic that also sells BL, but I don't think I can order any more - I have already ordered so much (3rd Illamasqua last night whistle.gif)... and BTW, received my DL Mermaid's Dream today! It looks lovely.

I will be checking out Zoya more in the future now that I have finally tried one of them on.

 

Love your wall racks! I wish I could get some of those, too, but no one is going to ship them for their size. I'm in desperate need of racks!

The olders ones came in round bottles I prefer these so much more! Congrats on getting Cleo it's beautiful! I finally put it on last night over my favorite one coater black (CND). I tried one layer on it's on first and it was TOO sheer I don't have the patience for 3-4 coats.
