As many of you know I blogged for Birchbox
last week. I had so much fun working
with them, & I wanted to share
with you some of the things I blogged about
just in case you missed it…
I blogged for them a total of {5} Days.
Each day I wrote about something different
from my magnetic makeup board to my
favorite cosmetic products.
Here is my new magnetic board…
As many of you may know I made a makeup board
a while back which you can see {here}.
It wasn’t exactly what I wanted so I made
this one a little more lovely
& a little more me…
& a little more me…
Items Used:
{2} Magnetic sheets from Lowes
{1} Antique gold picture frame from an antique store
I painted the metal sheets a pretty robins egg blue &
used super glue to attach the metal sheets to
the back of the frame.
I hot glued magnets to the back of my favorite makeup
products to make the products stick to the magnet board.
I hung my magnetic makeup board in my vanity closet.
It makes getting ready in the morning so easy
because my makeup is conveniently within reach &
visible.
Stay tuned for my other blog posts
from Birchbox.. I will be sharing them with you soon!!

That's a pretty nifty idea! Alas I have a 3 year old, so I have to hide all my makeup. But when he gets older and doesn't think makeup is paint, I'm totally doing this!
That is such a fabulous idea! I must do that!

Hi,this is one of the prettiest magnetic boards I've seen. Did you use those heavy duty little magnets or just plain ones (like the ones I bought in a huge roll from Michaels Crafts)? I'd love to try this but don't which magnets to use.
I used regular magnets from lowes… they are very magnetic and seem heavy duty so Idk if they come in different packages. I think the ones I bought came in a pack of 4. I hope this helps!!
Very good idea. I just found your blog and I'm glad I did. I also blog and would love for you to check it out. Have a great weekend!

Love this idea! I definitely need to try it. All of my mineral makeup is in a basket and I can never find what I need!
This week I found two new obsessions…. Birchbox. And your magnetic make-up board.
Love the whole closet! The makeup thing is way cool.
I absolutely LOVE this!!! I'm totally going to have to do this, thanks!

I love this idea however, if I were to do this, I would need a whole wall of magnetic boards
Such a good idea! Wow. I need to do this. Found you from Sweep Tight blog hop. I'm your newest follower.
This is a totally brilliant idea! Ohmygoodness, I might have to give this a try. And you made it so pretty!

I love how you updated your board! I need to try this
So creative!
I did this for my daughter but I put her initial in bling on the corner & put scrapbook paper in the middle,then I painted a LARGE medicine bottle,hot glued fake pearls around the top rim & glued it to the bottom of the frame to hold her brushes. she loved it !
What a great idea for makeup!
That's such a neat idea. When I have a spot to hang a board like that, I think I might try it.:) I'm a new follower from Show and Share.:)
Featuring this great idea on my blog today!
I really love this idea! Makes perfect sense! You are super creative & talented! Thanks so much for linking up at Show & Share! SO happy that you did!
This is genius! I think this will be my next fun project, because I just can't wait to make one! Thanks for the inspiration…
I’ve been trying to make this but can’t find any magnetic sheets?!? Lowes tells me they don’t sell any such thing? Any ideas? I tried the magnetic paint but its not strong enough and too messy!
I haven’t been to Lowes to look for the sheets yet, but under the list of supplies it says “magnetic sheets,” then in the instructions it says she painted the “metal sheets.” Maybe that will help?
Also, I just looked at her first make up board, and it does say “sheets of metal” on that list “Sheets of metal (Lowes $4.00 per)”. Hope this helps!

I LOVE this idea! I’m going to make one for myself and one for my brother’s girlfriend for Christmas! How much did the magnetic sheet at Lowes cost? Did you have to cut it or do they have different sizes?
I am glad to here the all useful inforamtion

What is inside your makeup brush holders to make the brushes stand up?
@vduback:
I dont know what she used but I made some makeup brush holders with river stones in them. I got the vase and the stones from the Dollar store. They work great!
Love this!!!!!!
