Simple Storage Solutions For Your Makeup

I wanted to keep my makeup organized in a closed container and be easily accessible. I also wanted to utilize an existing item - a photo storage box. This box has come in handy for many purposes other than its original intent. For example, I used it once as a jewelry box . As my jewelry accumulated I had to switch to a chest, and my photo box was once again available for use.

I decided to store my makeup in my photo box which couldn't have worked out better. It keeps my makeup covered, I can easily access it by placing it on top of my dresser, and it looks stylish and attractive.

You too can think outside the box, or in this case, inside the box, by utilizing an existing piece in your home. It's a great way to make use of our belongings and save money!
