Special Edition Brush Sets

[sigwing]

I'm just curious what everyone does with them. Do you keep them in their respective cases or do you combine them all into a larger case where you have them all in one spot and can select that way, without memorizing which box/bag to go to for a specific tool?

I'm tempted to try to find something to hold all the ones I have together in one place.

i keep all my brushes in a stationary organzier, like you'd put pencils in. i only use the bags for travel usually.

I keep all of my brushes in last year's Xmas case. I don't love the case but it will hold them all and it's nice to have them in one place.

I bought two brush sets recently, and I put them all in my stash box. Keeps them all in one place.

I have the stashbox, too, and I was going to put my olive ones from my Stashette bag in it. I have a bunch of other brushes, too, so I was also wondering about finding a nice pencil box or something, too, or a jewelry roll maybe?

I'll try the stashbox! I want them together because the reason I got the olive stashette is because the brushes were different from the others.

Thanks...I was just wondering if anyone cringes at mixing your olive handles with magenta or teal....! I know it's a silly thought!

I bought one of last year's holiday brush sets, but I keep all of my brushes, SE and regular, in this candle holder I have (it's shaped like a regular glass tumbler, but it has cute fish on it so I figured it would serve this purpose well). I only use the bag when I'm on the go or traveling...I like last year's bags a lot, since they are long enough to hold the full-sized brushes when I want to throw stuff in my bag for mid-day touch ups.

Moon, is it like for a votive candle? That's a great idea!

Yeah, I'm guessing it was made for votives. I tried putting a tea light in it and nearly burned my fingers off trying to get the damned thing lit (I don't have one of those long candle lighters for such things, so I use a regular lighter and then try to drop the tea light in, which rarely works because I seem to have bad aim

), so I decided this was a better use for it. I think I have about twenty brushes (I am a brush fiend!) and it holds them all comfortably so I can see them all and easily reach for whichever I want.

storage

I just started storing all of mine in a stila can. Until then I kept them in their cases, but that was a pain. I was going back and forth between cases. Much easier to grab out of a can.

I have 2 of the Tailormade sets which I use at work and keep in a mug in my traincase in my locker. The cases are sitting unused at home.

I used to keep my home brush set in a Stila paint can, but I outgrew it. I'm now using 2 Japonesque brush cups (one for face brushes, the other for eyes), but I am outgrowing them, too.

I do this too. I have all of my eye brushes in one Stila can and all of my face brushes in another stila can.
