giggles can spread from person to person. so can blushing.

Lately, I have been trying to organize my life. That means my closet (an endless task, it seems!) and even the way I store my makeup. A little while back, I picked up a clear container. It had a bunch of compartments and a clear bin that went underneath. Perfect for blush storage! I figured the clear compartments would be more than enough to store all of my blushes....but I was wrong. Oops! It turns out I have an awful lot of blush. (What can I say? I'm a total blush addict.)

The solution? I ended up using both the clear container and the detachable compartments to store it all. I'm really happy with how it turned out. It's so much easier to find what I need. Plus, it makes it easier to actually see what I have. That saves me time, lets me get more creative, and saves me from re-buying shades I already own. Yes, I love this little piece of organization.

So, here is how I'm storing my blush these days:


It may look like a lot here, but the bottom container there actually sits right on top of the top container and clicks into place to keep it secure. Originally, I think this was meant for craft supplies or something - but hey, it still works! As you can see from the photo above, I have a lot of different blush shades and formulas. Some are high end, some are drugstore. Some are cream and others are powder. What can I say? I really love blush!

So, that is step 1 of my organization project. I am hoping to be totally organized by the end of June. It is (hopefully) a reachable goal. I will have to let you know!

How do you store your blush?

Also - Happy Father's Day to my dad and to all the dads out there! <3
