May Task: Beauty Collections!

The May BBHQ Task is focused on your collections, how you store/organize them, different furniture you use, cataloging methods and more, so let's get into it!

• Where do you keep your collection? I keep my makeup and nail polish collections on top of my desk, that way they are both easily accessible. I keep my jewelry on a wall display and on top of another organizational unit.

Check out these videos to see my current collections & storage:

• What furniture or organizers do you use? (brand names and website links help)
• For my Makeup Collection, I use the MUJI 5-Drawer Acrylic Case
• For my Jewelry, I use a necklace holder and bracelet holder (links are similar)
• For nail polish, I use an Acrylic nail polish table
• Do you have a cataloging system? If so, can you share your secret? I don't have a large collection, so I don't have a system
• How do you keep it organized? I organize my makeup by category. For example  all my lip products are in a drawer. 
• Do you have any special displays for your favorite items? I like to display anything than was really cool packaging or just my favorite products to use
• When you get new items, where do they go? They usually go right into my collection but I tend to keep them on top of my storage unit until I have tested to see if I actually want to keep the product
• For Fun, share your top 5 FAVORITE items in your beautiful collection :)
• Maybelliene Baby Lips
• Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes Mascara
• Stila Smudge Pot in Kitten
• theBalm Meet Matt(e) Nude palette
• Rimmel Powder
