Amp'd Up and A Question


Good Afternoon! Here we have Color Club~ Amp'd Up. A very bright coral/orange neon. I used three coats in these pictures. And, this polish dries a bit matte! :)

I have a question for ya'll. How do ya'll store your nail polish? 
My collection is steadily growing and I know for sure I have reached over 120 polishes. I am running out of places in my room to store them... and my Mom is quite tired of seeing polishes laying around the house. Ya'll can either leave me a comment on how you store your polishes, or email me at: kchaffin@bellsouth.net

Thanks and Enjoy! :)

I bought a plastic 3 drawer container. I put a layer of non-slide drawer liner on the bottom so they don't slide around. I've already outgrown it and need another one.

That's a beautiful shade on you! My polishes are all in one room (my home office) and about half on on 3 shelves in order by color. The other half are in the closet or drawers because they're untried or not yet entered on my spreadsheet. I recently bought a Sauder brand cd shelf that stands on the floor and am in the process of moving everything. I'm going to get another one because it seems to work well. I can send you a link to the product, and it was $25.00 at Big Lots.

I use a Caboodles case. Some other options are an Ikea Helmer (this is very popular with the nail board girls at Makeupalley.com). The other option is a nail polish rack that nail salons use. You can buy these from salon e-tailers like Transdesign.com. The plastic drawer storage containers like Nosaby mentioned work well too. They're stackable. I have one of those for my sewing supplies.

It would be great to do a post on this subject. There are so many different ways to store polishes. I use large container with handles from LocknLock. I have 4 of them, 3 train cases, 1 cupcake snapcase and 2 magazine plastic cases. I need a better way also. I'm constantly having to pick them up tp find what I want. They're all stacked on the floor by my bureau. Help!

Very pretty colour on you! I think I need to get some neons for the summer now!
I just lay my entire collection out on a table that we never use in the living room. XD I think I might need to get a Helmer from Ikea soon. It's a cabinet with six drawers (or is it five?) that's perfect for storing nail polishes. It's not too big, I think around two and a half feet tall but it can store up to five or six hundred polishes! :D

I like Amp'd Up!
I store my nail polish in that 10 drawer organizer that I bought from Office Depot, along with the rest of my makeup.
