My new vanity. I'm in looooove!

[ThePowderPuff]

I finally finished my new vanity today, and I am SO happy. It may not be big, but it's mine and I love it. So here it is. I have used the following:

"Leksvik" black desk
"Helmer" white drawers
"Kolja" mirror
2 "Musik" lamps, one on each side of the mirror

And the stool is from Kartell. It's called La Boheme, and is both a stool and a small side table.

And you won't get pictures of the inside of my drawers yet. I still have some organizing to do

That looks really nice! I like that it's small and neat. The chair is really cute.

It is very cute! I can't wait to see what's in the drawers when you're done with it!

No problem at all. You start by hanging the mirror on the wall, and then you hang the lamps right next to it. They're completely seperate products, I have just hung them right next to eachother.

I just have to find a way to organize the drawers. But I can't figure it out

I have

one for lipglasses with the inlay of Helmer.

One with the inlay for lipsticks, paint pots and pigment samples.

One for my nailpolishes.

One for my blushes and my eyeshadow quads and palettes.

One for my powders, MSFs and Beauty powders.

And one with the inlay for random stuff like false lashes, mascaras, ....

I store my brushes and pencils seperately.

HTH!!

The inlay of Helmer? What is that?

How do you like the lighting that you get from the lights? Is it enough for makeup application or do you feel like you still need a closer table top mirror? I am thinking of getting those lights but not sure if it would be adequate for what i need. T

The lights are excellent in my oppinion. The best light I ever had.

But I think I still need a closer table. Simply because when I apply eyeliner, I like to get really close. So it's more a question of distance, not the lights.

The lights are really bright! Get the least bright lightbulbs you can.

It is a clear plastic inlay with four seperate boxes. Really helpful for organizing makeup. I will try to take pics!

 

[BaDKiTTy69]

How do you have the Musik lights connected? I bought them, but I do not want to put them in the wall (well, I don't have anyplace in the wall to put them)
