I would love to see how you all store, display your nail polish bottles. My dd has quite a bit of the mini bottles and we are trying to find a way to store them, but use them as decor also.

I would love to see picures. TIA

These are from my Instagram account. I have 3 of these shelves for many of my polishes. I have over 600, so these stand hold a little over half my collection.

My husband built them for me. The wood and nails only cost $15. Each stand holds from 90-100 normal size polishes.

I painted them and used masking tape. Since I put the bottle forward you can't see the bare wood any place, except the back.

I don't have a picture, but I use the wooden spice racks from Ikea. They are 2.49 and hold a lot of polish.

How do I add a picture? I have two nail polish holders from Sally's when our local one went out of business!

Thank you so much for the pictures and ideas. StaceyAngel, very cool project Annabella, that is just too cute!

I want to go with something that hangs on the wall since there isnt enough prime counter space in her room or bathroom.

I have the same one from amazon. I think I saw it here and decided to get it. My husband hung it for me in my closet.

I don't display my polishes...they're in a cupboard in a tool box/carrier thing.

Is anyone else dumbfounded that people display their nail polish? Is this a common thing to do? I've honestly never heard of this.

I paint my nails every weekend, it saves me the hassle of digging through a bin. I consider them to be "colored little bottles of joy" so why wouldn't I organize and display them like I do my kitchen spices.

I have an IKEA rack as well. It's the metal one, but I've recently run out of room in it.

I 'display' mine not for the display factor, but because I have no where else to put them, so on the wall they go. Now that I've run out of room on that rack, I'll look to store them somewhere else once I come up with a plan.

Damn you for linking that rack! I've been thinking of getting some to store my nail polish.

I don't consider it a display but as a way to organize and store nail polish. When it's on the wall it's much easier to see what you have. I plan on getting one of those racks linked but I'll be putting it in my closet.

It is to organize them into one space. There is not enoughactual counter top space. And there isnt enough under coounter space. Plus she is a tween so it will be cool decor for her room.

And I love Annabella's description that it is little colored bottles of joy!

It doesn't seem any different to me than having a stamp storage/display. Sure I can put my stamps in a bin (or several) but I use them more when they are out and I can see them!

Sending this link to my sister - she needs it!

I thought my 12 bottles of OPI was quite excessive. It seems I have a lot of catching up to do
