DIY MAKE-UP STORAGE

Hello Everyone

This post is a bit of a different one, rather than what i have been doing. So i thought i mind as-well show you how i did it in stages.

diy make-up storage.


 What your going to need.
- Scissors
- pen/pencil
- Hot glue gun or strong glue
- white plain paper
- Black (or color of your choice) plain paper
- Card Board box (your choice on size)
- liquid glue
- Magazines or another paper    





1. Cut along the lines of the section which your box has been opened basically (the flapped bits) Keep these to the side you will need these later.











2. On one side of the box cut down for then you have a open section into your box. But do not cut all the way to the bottom, as you can see leave some card left, as much as you want. 


3. Turn to the sides of your box, and get your ruler and draw a straight line, from the top of the box to the top of the section you just cut. Then just get your scissors and cut along the line, you might want to keep the left overs from this to. 






4. From three this is what your box should look like know. After this just place some of your liquid glue onto the sections as shown on the photo. 
Once you have done this get your white piece of paper and simply glue it down on to the box, this just stops you from seeing the card. 





5. After this you box should look like this. 

With your left over pieces of card that you have just cut of, sort them out cut them shorter, keep them the same what ever you want, to make it the way you want them. 

Put them into the position your going to have them (which makeup is going to go in which section etc) 
Keep them bits to one side, remember which ones you are using.



6. Cover your box. 
Unless you want a plain box, then why not cover it. Here i just went through a few magazines, and picked out a few make-up adverts, and cut them out, and just stuck them on, it doesn't have to be neat. Just make sure you have covered most of the box (except the bottom because you wont see it)






 7. Start to cover your sections. The pieces you picked on section 5, you can now cover them. I covered mine with my black paper, It doesn't have to be neat. I just wrapped them around a few times with glue.


8. Stick in your sections. This is were you will need strong glue, or a hot glue gun. Just put a thin strip of some glue as the bottom of your section, and put it into the box and press and hold down it for a few seconds  and there you go its stuck. Keep doing this, in-till all of your sections are stuck down.






9. Put in your make-up and there you go, your make-up diy storage done!

In my make-up storage i placed.
- Fondations
- Lip products. 
- My small clarins 'try them out' products.
- Face powers, Sleek kit, Bronzer.
At the bottom random bits.
