The upside-down basket is genius, haven't seen that before!

[@stacyt814]

For the little aluminum tins those would work well for lash storage after they have been worn.

[@KatMay]

The card holder as a phone holder is such a genius idea!!!!

[@palestar828]

I was just going to comment the SAME thing and then I saw your comment! Lol

[@meggie6208]

Yes!

The lipstick holder/organizer is a genius idea!

[@sallykasper61]

The phone holder is really a good, the baby wipes and other stuff are wonderful

[@missintuition]

Hey Brittany, instead of the placemat definitely look at walmart for contact paper in the kitchen section. You can recover the whole top of your vanity & it's so easy to wipe down & keep clean after! It'll make it look like new & they have cute patterns. I also started to put them inside all my drawers around the home.

[@AubreyMichelle09]

Holy crap I never thought about flipping the metal baskets upside down! I bought them hoping they'd hold my make up but everything kept sliding out. Now I can finally put them to use. Thank you! Loved this video!!!

[@TCon-lb9xv]

Maybe those small containers could be used to store small earrings and rings? Possibly use them for homemade lip balms or lip scrubs too.

[@ojacentaj]

A nice lip scrub is organic coconut oil wth brown sugar. Effective and yummy.

[@sassyfras4085]

@@ojacentaj Do you know how long it can be kept?

[@ojacentaj]

@@sassyfras4085 Not sure but cocunut oil lasts a long time. I've had one about 5 months once and it was fine. If you use a real small container then it will be gone before you can worry about it.

[@luckeeno7]

The upside down basket for lipsticks is genius!!!

[@sisasal8]

For the small tins: I keep some of my round cotton pads with micellar water in it. much like a baby wipe for your face. Thx for the great ideas! Carter it's sooo adorable! 💋

[@dont_mind_me2957]

Great idea thank you 😊

[@agreenscorpio]

SiSA Sal, I' m going to try this out! Great idea👍

[@pamcamcris]

Awesome idea!! I've stripped up/cut up fabrics in empty bottles with home made cleaning mixtures but the idea of cotton balls soaking in micellar water in those tins is ingenious !

[@stephgoesshopping]

Instead of the napkin holder, you could also use a mail organizer that has 3 different heights, found in the poster board section of the dollar tree for palettes! Also, I think Wal-Mart sells glass dishware that is usually cheaper than the dollar tree, or I go to garage sales and DIY a 3 tier organizer for about .50!

[@JessicaFails]

For those little storage containers at the end, you can take a piece of foam packaging ( like the kind that comes in boxycharm) and cut it in a circle to fit the container. It can be used to quickly wipe your brush off when doing makeup

[@xkristixx]

Major anxiety when you put that plate on top of a vase, then put glass bottles of perfume on it.

[@ASMRbyKittyy]

xkristixx yeah I didn’t like that

[@eugenialuisa6772]

I don't think good idea either.Card holder however, top!

[@sp0kyw1tch]

That's why she said to glue it to make it sturdy.

[@kimthejunglist]

Cereena Mansfield :: Even the glue will deteriorate over time.

[@heatherboyer6374]

Totally agree. I would never do that in fear of my perfume falling and breaking.

[@eyekandy3000]

That lipstick holder idea is genius. I spend about $7 on the same thing.

[@denisereyes1509]

That was a very nice idea to do the upside down basket as a lipstick holder, and I would even take it a step further and spray paint it the color I want

[@brebre4537]

Ooh that’s a good Idea

[@lannievast5094]

Brilliant ideas. I have hesitated organizing my makeup because organizers are sooo expensive. This is truly great. Now I have no excuse to organize.

[@jennifertran8157]

I SCREAMED WHEN YOU SHOWED YOU WERE WATCHING REMI!! I can't believe you're a fan as well! Loved the video 💗💗💗

[@lexitaylor8184]

ItsJenHere. I reacted the same way

[@alexishuiras2799]

Me too! I love both of their videos!

[@mariafreeman4181]

Are those containers big enough for bobby pins or hair elastic? They might fit in your purse too.

[@oliviakoury1219]

Maria Freeman that's exactly what I was thinking!

[@mariafreeman4181]

Olivia Koury great minds think alike.

[@amandaallen7470]

I used those containers when I made a gift set/ spa basket for my co-workers last Christmas. I put my DIY body butter in one and bath salts in the other. I labeled them with a chalk board sticker label on the top then twisted juke twine around it (like you would a box so have ribbon on all 4 sides) then just tied a regular bow at the top. It looked so cute, and it reinsured that it wouldn't spill in the basket. The body butter is pretty thick so it was fine, but I used a different jar for the body scrub I made. They all loved it! I also have one in my glove box that has the toothpick/floss things in it, and another one holds my bobby pins.

[@annajuhi13]

aluminum storage containers can be used for powdered spice storage by gluing some magnets on back ok it,or can be used for some craft supplies like pins and stuffs like that, by the way Moving to my first ever studio apartment,😍 and Time for me to do some vassorganisation😂🙌

[@rache9195]

My boys love pulling all of my makeup out of my vanity. It's hard to be mad when they're that cute. That placemat is a great idea. Love that!

[@lex462]

This change my life with makeup right after I saw this I ran to my car 💖

[@Luumus]

To protect vanities I think it's so much better a clear acrylic cover made to fit the exact size of the vanity. It doesn't dance around as much as those small plastic covers and it's super easy to clean. I have it on my vanity and any furniture that may need protection, like my shoe drawers which have several potted plants on top of it.

[@trublgrl]

I just did a Dollar Tree run for this exact purpose. I use the Card holder to hold my three go-to foundations (matching, highlight, and shadow). Also, they have silver gray tins like you showed at the end with plastic windows and magnets on the back in the stationery section. You can see whatever you put in there, and bang it up on any petal object like a mirror frame or tray if you like. I love how you went through the store with a creative eye and found a lot of great problem solvers!

[@briannaepiphany]

Thanks so much for the plate on the vase idea, definitely trying it today

[@truthbetold1086]

Awesome ideas!! You are a genius home girl thank you 🙏

[@kacitranae]

You can get circular magnets at the dollar store. Attach the magnets to the back of the little circular tins and use as storage for product, cotton balls, whatever, and you can attach to a mirror or magnets you put on the side of your vanity.

[@vasseurbeauty]

love this idea!!

[@christineg6123]

You could put your small jewelry in the small tins. Or maybe paper clips and tiny office supplies. Idk.

[@nyxzyhandmyxzyh5256]

I love how the organization basket turns out and organized all the liquid lipsticks💋❤️💋💐😍

[@carmelcuteceevlee1411]

Thank you so much I going to decor right now!

[@rishaa682]

I would use those containers to put coconut oil in, to use on the go or because i dont want a big coc oil container taking up space on my vanity.

[@ketchup3367]

Wow the upside down rack used for lipsticks/concealers is genius! Love it! Thanks for sharing these ideas!

[@jerseygirl386]

Baby Carter is the star of the show!!

[@stephaniethurman8404]

Hair ties and bobby pins would be what I would put in those little tins. Great organization options from you! 👍

[@beverlyroberto2757]

Hello Britanny! New subscriber here and a first time mom. After watching A day of life with a newborn video, I immediately fell inlove with you, your videos and your family! You really inspired me to become a better mom. Can't survive a day without watching your videos. So obsessed already! Thank you for everything! You really helped me overcome my postpartum blues. I hope you could upload your weekly vlogs I really love watching them. Love you so much! 💕

[@catlady6687]

Love the little wire basket upside down for lipsticks... card holder for cell phone holder... butter dish... way to think out side the box!!

[@libertybelle4966]

You are a gosh darn genius! I’m subscribing. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!

[@heatherboyer6374]

I use the small (and large) containers you spoke of for all my kitchen spices. Mine were magnetic so I spray painted a dollar store cookie sheet and now my spices are easy to get to and look great. Hope you like the idea.

[@laureny4558]

It's so crazy I was literally already using those decorative display bowls for those exact uses! Sooo good for sponges! And I need to hit up the Dollar tree to get a napkin holder now lol

For the small Tin you can store home made deodorant or you can make your own lavender candles or to store the extra buttons and thread from new clothes

[@AngelaJoan10]

I love love love that Carter was your end scene!!! 😊 so adorable! He has got to be the most adorable baby! I am in love with your channel!! I'm making my way through all of them (only found you a few weeks ago) I'm nearly done with all of them and have liked every one of them. I really would love to see you do a video of your favourite things.(music movies books KZbin foods whatever) I would love to see what you like watching on KZbin (I basically need to find another channel as good as yours when I am done binge watching😜) Lots of love from Angela😙 from Sydney Australia 🙋

[@AngelaJoan10]

Also I have just finished watching all your videos. And this is the only one where we don't see you 😢 hope you are okay... I followed you on Twitter (only have Twitter just so I could follow you😂) and I saw your comment that you aren't well. Hope you get well soon 🙁😙

[@Gaptoothedredheadeds]

I used one of those small aluminum canisters and a small hair donut(also from Dollar Tree) and use it as a DIY Color switch. The canister is magnetic so I keep it right on my metal mirror frame on my vanity. It works great and only cost $1.50!

[@bethhughes430]

Gaptoothredheadedsinger exactly what I do and suggested! They work perfectly for a fraction of the cost. I love them, they really cut down on the brushes I need to use.

[@MsLGWB]

Gaptoothredheadedsinger What is a color switch?

[@RTYWLive.Forever]

My guess is you dip your makeup brush into the tin with the spongy-donut and it removes the residue from the 1st color so you can make a "color switch" to the next one. Took me a minute to understand.

[@VonnieSF]

Gaptoothredheadedsinger What a great idea!!!!

[@kimberkisscosmicqueen]

You could use those tiny tin containers for storing your wedding ring, or just rings or earrings, or cotton balls and q tips, or you could use them to store tylenol in your purse

[@NotJessH]

Great, creative ideas!

[@cjay233]

The wire basket turned upside down is ingenious. TFS

[@SirParcifal]

if your vanity gets beat up on top, you can always cover it with vinyl wall paper - it won't move around like the mat, and it can also be wiped down with baby wipes!

[@tmill2176]

The baby at the end was the cutest!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love this video

[@jenflink9954]

I have been using the white sturdy containers for makeup organization for long time. Theyre awesome. To keep mine from sliding around in my drawers I use the double sided tape at Dollar Tree to keep them still. You can use that to keep your placemat still too. Thanks for your videos, I love them. Carter is gorgeous. Like his parents. Beautiful family.

[@oliviayt04]

The lip product storage idea was GENIUS. definitely doing that!!❤️

[@hannahd9475]

You could pour different skin care products in the little containers when you travel so you don't have to bring big bottles. Or if you have limited space in a bag you could put sun screen if your gonna be outside

[@rachelphelps6347]

great tips!! Those little tins are cute, so I'd say paper clips, push pins, etc. Any small things! Carter is so adorable!!! So glad I got to see him and that melt your heart smile!!

[@Justy1or2]

The basket idea for the lip glosses/liquid lipsticks is amazing. And you could probably fit most make-up brushes in the holes too. Love your channel

[@ntangx5069]

This was super useful, thank you!

[@Americanbeauty25]

A year ago I used a clear jar and blue beads to organize my makeup brushes. Thank you for the video and the ideas. I'll be sure to use them

[@aliciasworld8340]

You can use the little round metal containers for your false eyelashes , your false nails, eyelash glue or even your bobby pins if they fit

[@hobbitgirl6734]

I would probably use the little metal containers for stuff like nails, screws, earrings, rings, make them into candles, pill container for your purse. Tons of uses for those.

[@Mona001-01g]

Boxes can be used to store diy organic lip balms, lip sticks, etc. Also can be used to store Vaseline or such for keeping in purse or another place where you might need it.

[@beeanca13]

Omg these are the best!! Thank you!

[@anniebabydoll]

The little containers at the end, you could out falsies, Bobby pins or hairties in them. Or you can out spices in them and Velcro them to a kitchen cabinet.

[@pinknova1301]

Bobby pens and tiny clips and rubber bands for the small aluminum containers. Also try putting Velcro patches on the bottom or magnetic strips and sticking them on the wall for more convenience and space saving

[@SuperTech59]

You are really good at thinking outside the box-great tips! You know it's going to be almost impossible to ever be mad at Carter-he's too cute!!

[@rf443]

My goodness that lipstick/gloss organisation tip is absolutely GENIUS!!

[@aliciasworld8340]

You can use those little round metal containers for your false nails, false eyelashes, your eyelash glue or even your bobby pins if they fit

[@QuinnBella10]

You can use those for DIY LIP BALMS

[@irisbuckingham]

Hey! You could use the last little containers for earrings, small jewellery or maybe even just face creams/makeup to use when you are traveling!

[@mendozabeneya]

Cater is growing so fast!!! He is looking so handsome

[@torontohaze5266]

Ooo, maybe use those tins to put broken makeup into to restore it! Or dried up stuff! :) Love your channel! ❤️

[@kenyapope952]

Nice & creative ideas.The small tin containers can be used to hold candle wax,or store candles,hair beads,hair jewelry,tiny rubber bands,cotton balls,petroleum,lotion,tiny batteries,pencil erasers,ear buds,etc. They could be decorated.Thanks.

[@justinewhite-hadley3138]

I used the little plastic bowls for holding jewelry on my nightstand. They are really cute!

[@lilylove119]

Aluminum containers can be for earrings and/ or drill holes in them and you can use it as a little brush holder. (Of course you’ll need to put it in a vase but it makes it easier to find what brush you want)

[@eenAee1201]

1. The tiny tin bins can be used to store jewerly when you go travel or in your purse in case you have small items! 2. Can also be used to put your favorite lotion if you do not want to take the whole bottle. Dont forget to put it inside a ziploc in case it spills!

[@kristinep.1176]

You could use the little circular tins for homemade face treatments such as eye gel, facial lotion, or masks. And also homemade sugar lip scrubs and lip balms!

[@Sunflowers739]

You can use these little storage containers for loose tea, if you are a tea lover, Or any spices, or even for your rings. As for me any loose tea is great when I can fit it from the big box to a small container

[@alaanugud3419]

the outro with Carter is just too cute 😍

[@dianecire3931]

For the round aluminum tins you can make your own makeup removal pads for like on the go, or you could use them if your lipstick breaks and you want to turn it into lip gloss. You could also use it if you want to take some foundation with you on the go but you don't want to take the whole glass container and risk it breaking.

[@bethrichardson5364]

Well done!

[@2ndaccount513]

with the little storage containers, you can put broken eyeshadow on them and just pack it together so it is as good as new

[@json9368]

The little containers at the end can be used for false lashes!

[@aishamaude4509]

Awwww baby carter is growing up so fast... he's too cute

[@muryoung7108]

Loving the upside down lipstick storage! I'm going to dollar tree first thing in the morning! Thank you!

[@SnowprincessCrafts]

You can use those containers for diy lip balm or diy makeup also great for hairbands and bobby pins on the go!!

[@marissasharp9892]

These ideas were so clever! But, I have to say, my favorite part was Carter!!! He steals the show with those precious cherub cheeks and huge smile❣❣❣ Love and Blessings❣

[@sharil3645]

Those little metal storage containers you could use as a dry brush cleaner. Pop in a bun form that you can get at the dollar tree hair care section and there you have it. It isn't an organizational thing but still works in the makeup realm. :)

[@Missdee10]

Clever ideas! Especially love the lip gloss, and butter dish stoarge! The baby is soo cute, omg!!

[@TanyaShetayh]

The little storage containers are perfect for hair ties !!!

[@ladyluna8326]

I use the little round magnetic containers for spices and I put magnet strips in my cupboards it really helps keep them off the counter and still not take up too much covered space and keeps everything organized I also use them in my office 4 paper clips thumbtacks rubber bands stuff like that

[@joycloud9440]

Oh wow thank you for the lipstick idea genius

[@xiuminsama8935]

For those small tins w/lids...... just pop in a bit of those foam inserts from your monthly sub boxes like Boxycharm (or IpsyPlus for a pretty PINK or BLUE pop of color), that are used to protect your items during transit but you never know what to do with them once your package arrives,........ and voila!!....... you now have an instant DIY 'Color Switch' to help dry clean your eye brushes between the shades you want to use and/or when you've finished your eyeshadow for the day---between your deep clean brush washing every week or so. Works great to clean your brushes to combine BLUSH shades,too! You can cut the foam inserts to fit the tins better if you like, and then multi-stack 3-4 at once in the tins, and then just toss them away as needed when you need a fresh clean one instead of having to wash & reuse them.

[@princesberliner5780]

ok so ive wached about 20 videos on organizing tips, and this one is deff my fav.💕💕

[@maddytaylor3419]

The little tin containers can be used for the eyeshadows that break in your palettes. You can just put the pigment in the tins.

[@karbazaar]

I use those small containers to hold my headphones. I just wrap them around my 3 fingers then slide them into the container and no more tangled headphones. I also use them for the small elastics I use when I braid my hair,. They're so nice to just throw in my purse and go!

[@AlongwithAlana]

You just FLOORED ME with that upside down basket. GENIUS.

[@meganwellman3369]

The small tin containers would be great to repress broken eye shadows or powder foundations in!

[@TheTravelJunkies]

We LOVEEEE dollar stores!

[@suzq2744]

You could use the small containers for diy makeup products! Lip gloss in a popular one, and blush, but you could do like "travel" sizes of anything! Pressed powder, eyeshadow, nail & lip salves, etc. Great for makeup on the go!💄🚘

[@joannetolson1155]

Just now needing storage, 7years after you posted this! But love these ideas, especially the upside-down basket and the butter dish!

[@roseharding4635]

The little tins could be a great storage for falsies, either singles or strip lashes. It would keep them sanitary and dry.

[@georgiajanuszewski6906]

The metal tins can be used for homemade lipstick or blush or eyeshadow. Or you can fit a hair donut in there and make a color switcher for your eyeshadows

[@amyluckeydoo7663]

Small round tins could be used for elastic hair bands, safety pins, earring backs and maybe bobby pins, depending on size.
