Magnetic Makeup Boards!


This week, we wanted to share a fun and creative tip for storing all your favorite makeup products!  This simple idea requires hardly any materials and will save you loads of time when rushing to get out in the morning, or prepping for a night out with friends.  The idea is to create a magnetic board that can be framed and hung on a wall near your vanity and filled with multiple cosmetic items of which will each have a tiny magnetic strip of their own.  This convenient trick saves you the hassle of constantly searching through your makeup bag for one or two specific items.  To start, purchase a piece of magnetic sheet and make sure you measure out its height and width.  Then take your measurements and find an inexpensive frame (try Marshall's or Home Goods) for your magnetic board.  Before framing the board, take a piece of colored material (fabric or sheet) and cover the magnetic board to add some style.  Once you have done this, you can now frame the board and hang it on a wall closest to where you generally apply your makeup.  Finally, take thin pieces of magnetic strips and glue them to to the backs of each of your favorites cosmetic pieces.  Once the glue has dried you can then place your makeup products onto the board and organize them as you wish!  You'll be amazed at how much time and energy this simple and inexpensive trick with save you, not to mention the benefit of getting to display and admire all of your fabulous cosmetics!
