Oh how I love my vanity. I recently decided to display my postcard collection above it, using cheapie plastic picture frames from the evil empire. Of course, I just sort of threw them up there randomly which looks kinda... well, bad. Eventually I'll move 'em around. (Doubles is missing - I forgot to put it back up in time.)

HOW I STORE EVERYTHING:

In a very-overloaded ubiquitous plastic container from Target (oh God, do I really need another one??? It's pretty crowded in there and I fear for my MSFs):

CollectionMar06010.jpg


(The "traincase" - ha! - on the left is by Caboodles. I use it to travel with a very pared-down collection. The small bag on top is for one or two day trips.)

The left drawer in my vanity, displaying my palettes (including the ORRA 88, which is buried), Tony & Tina glitters, lashes, assorted junk, 2 sets of B2M empties, and my contact lenses.

This doesn't seem so impressive compared to many of y'all's collections, but look where I was back in September or so:

Yeah I found that at this massive antique fair and just HAD to splurge. The lighting in my bedroom is better for doing makeup than my bathroom, and I didn't want to hog all the space in our tiny bathroom, so this was a good purchase.

It's not so organized in the drawers, trust me! The UD powder is Champagne... I bought it when they were discounting a few of the flavors on the Web site. It's not my favorite but it gives a nice shimmer.
