Polish Storage Organisation !

My latest storage for my polish was getting far too small so today i have been searching for a solution. Now this isn't the prettiest of storage boxes but it will do for temporary measure and its so much easier to find everything.

Take 1 B&Q Tool Box ( I had this already hence it looking a bit shabby )
The beauty of this is its so big it fits loads of polishes and its sturdy with a big carry handle. Perfect.


 Creative , Essie, Leighton Denny, Barry M

Lifts up for layer 2 :)

It came with these storage baskets, so handy

Cuticle oils and Nail Envy

Asos Paints

1 storage basket contains Crackles and Special Effect polishes

I like to mix it up with some cheaper brands too

The mini's fit perfectly in the top section at the front. ( Love my mini sizes )

Models Own and my treasured 1 Illimasqua Polish

So as i said this is not the most eye catching of storage boxes lol but it does do the job amazingly well. I even have space to add a few more Eeeek.
How do you store your polishes and what's one of your favourite colours?

    I'm loving the bottom half for a storage idea...I really need to sort out some proper storage for mine, pushing 120 bottles now and they're just stored in random shoe boxes and cake tins, whoops!xx

    Your storage looks so neat and organized :) Which reminds me I have to do something about the way I store mine as they are just lined up on a shelf lol

    Oh no that is handy! You should see mine, they are all just thrown in a giant wicker basket.

    Wow this is brilliant! Much more organised than my nail storage (everything plonked in a box from a perfume gift set lol!)

    I haven't tried the ASOS polishes...they look so cute! Are they any good?

    Hi Sarah, the polishes go on beautifully but chip within 2 days on me :( Saying that i have read other reviews that say they last well. My nails are quite soft and most polish chips really fast on me though.
    I got these when they were in the sale so im still happy as they were a bargain x

    This is the most imaginative storage I have seen, I keep mine in little heart shaped tins I got from BHS but because they are standing up I can't see the shades without pulling them out so a bit of a pain x

    I have like 50 nail polishes, & half of mine are in my handbags/dotted around the house and the rest are just all thrown in a big leopard toiletry bag how unorganised!

    I am inspired to get organised LOL x

    This is a really good idea - I need something like this as my polish collection is spiralling out of control again and is a complete mess!

    I love your nail polish collection...I actually envy the Essies and the assos very nice colors...the storage is great you have them all in a box...but it feels incovenient to me to put my bottles in an horizontal position and thats because when I want to use one of them much of the liquid has gone up to the base of the brush and I'll have to wait several minutes for the liquid to go down to the bottle! If I put them in an vertical place I search and search the color that I want to use...maybe transparent boxes would be the solution...I don'g know!

    Great storage box you've got there! :) I started of with a small make up bag, which then became a large make up bag...and now I'm using an old gift box which is now getting harder and harder to shut! lol I think I need to pay a visit to B&Q!

    I love the toolbox idea... but I personally can't bear to keep my nail polish collection hidden so I have them all out on display :-)

    Just reminded me that I totally need a bigger storage box for my nail polish. I like to use the "it doesn't fit and I don't use it" method, then just throw it away to make more space... But I can't do that anymore because I love the ones that I've managed to keep over time too much.

    I'm on a hunt to find a box like yours, so nice.
