Hello Beautiful People!!
I feel like I’ve truly missed you all 🙂 How have you all been?
Well this week has been so crazy for me..For those of you that follow me on Twitter and Facebook will probably know I met Zayn and Harry from One Direction! It was so unexpected and random, although Zayn invited me to the VIP area of a club with him, and we spoke and all danced. That just proves to show whatever you least expect in life..Will happen.
A lot of you have been asking me to tell the whole story of how it all happened on a video on my YouTube channel, although I don’t know if I will, just due to privacy reasons, but I mean I can go through the night and say the highlights! 🙂 Let me know what you think?
Anyway, not long ago I was inspired to create my own DIY nail polish rack for my room. Considering the amount of nail polishes I had and I had never even used half of them, due to the fact I couldn’t even see what I had…I decided to lay them all out and create a wall nail polish rack.
As you may know, they tend to be priced around from $100 and up..And that’s insane for a rack, so i went down to a local store to see how I could make one myself. I found these 2 wooden bath mats… (LOL random I know). I got home and took them apart. After pulling out the nails with pliers, I sanded the whole things down and rearranged them into shelves, with boarders.
I then painted the whole thing a rusty white; this gave it a more vintage look to it.
Below are some pics of the steps and the final result..Not bad huh?! 🙂
Remember to always Keep Smiling.

April 13, 2012Hi hon, that's fab. Approximately how many polishes will it fit?
When I get my new place in a few months (a temporary move I hope) I'll try and make one that I can take to the next house/flat.
Hope your having a lovely weekend 🙂

April 14, 2012Hey Love! I would say maybe around 100 or more (Depending on the size of the polishes) I made the shelves long, so i can lay them out double on each shelf later on in rows.
Hope your move goes well
Love Lilian x
