So, this is my post on how to make your own make-up brush holder! I've seen these on a lot of youtube videos uploaded by beauty gurus and thought they're a great way to store brushes. But....the ones you can buy are from the USA, from glitzyglam.com (made by gurus Elle and Blair Fowler), and I didn't want to pay the postage and packaging, so I thought why not just make my own?? So all you need to make this is a medium sized container that's going to be big enough for all of your brushes and some small beads that are going to hold your brushes up.
I bought the beads off ebay from a wedding supply shop, they come in 9 different colours and you get 400g for 2.79 (plus 1.99 p&p). I chose the clear ones because I wanted to keep mine neutral. This is the link here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400G-GLASS-BEADS-IDEAL-TABLE-DECORATION-VASE-FILLER-9-COLOURS-AVAILABLE-/220911735825?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Celebrations_Occasions_ET&var=&hash=item7915e91a33. My beads were delivered really quickly, this is them below.
So, once you've got your beads, get your container and just tip them in! (be careful though, because mine nearly went everywhere, I wasn't looking forward to cleaning them all up!). I bought my container from Hobbycraft for 5.79, but im sure you can find a suitable container from anywhere! Then just add your brushes. You've got your home-made brush holder!
