A few days ago, I was sorting out my desk, when I realized all my makeup was haphazardly stacked in random parts of my room. Needlessly to say, organization isn't my strong suit. In an effort to at least attempt some level of neatness, I went looking for containers of some sort to do the job. After about ten minutes, I came across this box (photographed above).
It was originally a box of kids stamps but I liked the compartments of the box, too much to throw it away. So after the stamps were moved into my larger stamp box, I came up with an idea to repaint it. Granted, it wasn't the most novel idea, but it turned out rather well. I started by painting each section of the box a different shade of gold. So the result was a rainbow of gold shades on the inside while the outside was a simple ivory.
The compartments turned out to be an ideal size for the eyeshadow palettes, eyeliner pencils, lip glosses, etc. In the end, my makeup found a home and the box a purpose!
