Well-groomed beautiful nails are not a tribute to fashion, but a necessary attribute of a modern woman. The art of manicure is being improved from year to year - the coating becomes more durable, the drawings amaze the imagination, and the color scheme is amazing in its diversity. Most girls prefer to do manicures in the salon. But, nevertheless, in the house of every woman, over time, a lot of bottles of varnish accumulate, because constantly painting nails in the salon is expensive and takes some time.
The problem with tiny bottles is that they are inconvenient to store. And over time, it becomes necessary to find a place for them, for example, a special shelf for nail polishes.
How to store small vials
Organizing a varnish storage system is troublesome. But it is absolutely essential. Otherwise, small bottles will take over all the shelves and cosmetic bags, and at the same time it will be impossible to find the one you need at the moment.
Vials do not have to be stored only on shelves for nail polishes. Many women use various improvised means - plastic containers,boxes, caskets or individual cosmetic bags. Also in use are special factory-made or home-made organizers, divided into small cells.
Some girls who have a lot of bottles at home buy professional varnish storage boxes in the form of acrylic tiered coasters, boxes with cells, cases and suitcases.
All these options have the right to life. But a special shelf for nail polishes has a number of advantages over other storage systems - all bottles are visible, easily accessible and stand in one row, so you can see the amount of liquid and you can immediately take the right one without a long search.
Wall and table shelves: which is better?
Both the one and the other option is definitely better than the unsystematic storage of vials. Desktop shelves for nail polishes are more compact and do not need to be fixed somewhere. It is enough just to find a free place on the table and arrange the bottles. A wall shelf can be of any size - from a small structure for a couple of dozen varnishes, to a monumental multi-tiered structure that spans the entire wall. In addition, it does not take up space on the table and does not clutter up the space. The disadvantages include the fact that it needs to be fixed on the wall.
Shelves for varnishes from the store
Desktop factory shelves for varnishes are usually of two types - a design with cells for horizontal storage and a multi-tiered composition, where bottles are stored vertically. The main material is plastic. Such modelsare inexpensive - from 400 rubles. for a small shelf for a couple of dozen bottles. The larger the capacity, the more expensive the model.
The situation is the same with wall shelves for nail polishes - there are designs with a vertical and horizontal storage system. The latter, strictly speaking, are not called shelves - these are professional displays with cells. But for the home, models with vertical placement of bottles in one row are more often chosen. Such designs often combine two functions - a place to store varnishes and interior decoration. Accordingly, the price of such products is higher - from 800 to several thousand rubles.
Homemade specimens
Not everyone can afford to spend even a small amount to organize the storage of their cosmetics. In this case, you can make a shelf for nail polishes with your own hands. There are several options, for their implementation you do not need to have the skills of a carpenter at all.
For example, you can make a multi-tiered structure from a thick sheet of foam. It is very easy to do this. You need to buy a sheet 4-5 cm thick. Then measure the bottom of the largest bottle of varnish to understand how wide each tier should be. Next you need to do this:
- Measure the width of the tier and cut off the bar. The length of the bar - according to the sheet, or whatever is required.
- Measure the second block, twice as wide. This will be the second tier of the structure. Cut off.
- Measure the third block, three times wider than the first. This is the third tier.
- Repeat as many times as needed.
- Fold the bars in a pyramid and glue each tier.
- Designcan be painted as you wish.
This nail polish shelf can be made in an hour. Unfortunately, it has a number of disadvantages: it weighs little and is easy to move and drop, and the bottles are not fixed or limited in any way, which means that they will fall at the slightest movement.
A desktop lacquer shelf can be made from thick cardboard, you just need to remember the labor lessons at school and show a little imagination. The advantage is that it is very simple and quick to make it, you can provide special borders-limiters, and even make special cells from foam rubber. The downside is that cardboard is not the most durable material, so there will not be many tiers. In addition, the shelf can be damaged by any liquid.
The most reliable option for do-it-yourselfers is to make a wooden shelf. By design, it will not differ much from any other wall or table shelves, but it needs to be made narrow, the size of the largest varnish and with a limiter edge.
