It's been a year since I've last posted collection pics. My how things have changed since then.
I went on a shopping spree this past weekend... for ice cube trays! I love being able to easily access my makeup without digging around too much for it, so I thought I would share how I organize it all. Then I got carried away and took pics of the rest my collection too
All the ice cube trays I have:
My paint pots

Woops, forgot a to take a pic of the tray with MSFs and powders, but I have to say it's the one that inspired me to buy more trays, since I keep them organized from darkest to lightest, I pretty much have their positions memorized.
All of my collection, some of which I reorganized since the batch of ice-cube tray pics, after I figured out how to maximize my space:
All I have space for on my vanity: Eye brush cup, Loose Powder in NC15, Sunspill Beauty Powder, Hundred Degrees Pearlizer, 181SE, Face brush cup

I have virtually no counter space on my tiny vanity, so the rest of my stuff has to live in a fabric Ikea box underneath. I carry this whole thing from my bedroom to the den to play with in front of the TV when I need to destress
Phew, that took about 2 hours of my life. Hope you enjoyed and I think I'll wait for another year before I attempt this again.
