Makeup Brush Storage
I have used so many different containers to hold my makeup brushes, but my brush collection has gotten bigger and bigger throughout the years so finding one container that could hold all of my brushes with easy accessabilty was difficult. After searching many different stores and websites, I finally found an amazing storage container to hold all of my brushes in one place.
The storage container I found is called the Spinning Tool Organizer from Hobby Lobby which is originally made to hold artist tools and brushes. When I was browsing Hobby Lobby and ran into this storage container, I thought it would be the perfect organizer to hold all of my brushes, beauty sponges and small hair supplies such as small clips, hair ties, and bobby pins. This organizer has twelve cubbies to hold brushes, and six drawers to hold little beauty items. The middle cubbie has a removable slot to make the center a bigger cubby if you desire. The storage unit is made of wood and comes in a varity of colors. The wood is easy to wipe down in case it gets dirty, and it sits on a spinning axle so you can turn the organizer to see every drawer or cubby.
I personally have the white organzier and I removed the middle wood plate to create a bigger cubby to hold my bigger brushes so they were not all crammed together. I like to use the bigger sections for larger brushes or brushes that have bigger bases, and I use the smaller sections for brushes that are smaller or more delicate. I love using the six drawers to store things like my smaller hair clips, bobby pins, hair ties, beauty sponges, and eyebrow tools such as scissors and tweezers. To stablize the smaller brushes, I put clear marbles to hold them in place and prevent them from falling over. If I need to clean my makeup brush organizer, I use a makeup removing wipe and wipe it down then dry it off with a towel. It is very important that you store all of your makeup brushes with the bristles facing upward to prevent them from being ruined. Taking care of your brushes is the only way to make sure that they last as long as possible.
