Hi, I am Brett from Silvergirl. I’m sharing an extremely easy DIY make-up brush holder to keep your make-up brushes organized and easy to reach.
My make-up brushes were just thrown into different drawers and I could never find the one that I needed. With this practical (and pretty!) container, your brushes will be at your fingertips in the blink of an eye.
Doesn’t this make you want to put on some make-up, just so you can use those brushes?
To get started, I went to Micheal’s with my handy 40% off coupon and bought a glass vase. I chose a tall one for my particular space, but any shape will do.
Next, I bought some glass stones to put into my container. I used stones instead of sand because some make-up brushes are double ended and I didn’t want to get sand on the brushes. I chose blue for my space, but again… you can choose whatever you like.
I just poured the stones into the container. I used about 3 bags of stones for my particular container. (If you save up your Micheal’s coupons each week, after a month you will have a very inexpensive project)
Then I inserted my brushes into the stones. The stones keep the brushes in an upright position and easy to grab at all times.
Voila! The finished product in my bathroom.
I hope this helps you not only to get organized, but also to use those make-up brushes a lot more in the future. Come visit me at Silvergirl and thanks for having me Stephanie!


























Hey Stephanie…
I ran across this idea the other day and thought it was a great idea. 95% of the projects I do are with glitter and I always need a place to keep the small artist paintbrushes while I am working and as a place to dry once I have cleaned them. I put a twist on your idea and used the beanbag pellets used to weigh down stuffed animals. Not nearly as decorative but worked for what I needed. Thanks for a great idea! And great blog…your glitter projects are topnotch!
Such a good idea! And it’s so pretty too. :)
This is such a simple and cute idea! My makeup brushes are always getting mixed up wtih all of my makeup and it’s such a disaster!
That is adorable! So simple & such a great idea! Thanks for sharing!
