Hoarding in a Helmer - minipost!

I went to Ikea last weekend and picked up a Helmer to keep my polishes in. Turns out, I could fill just over one drawer with bottles if I packed them in tightly. This means I need to buy more pretty polishes. Right?






97 polishes - it looks like so few, in these drawers! I've filled another one with manicure tools and cotton pads for now. What do you keep your polish in?

    I have a similar sort of holder. It's 2 drawers that snap together. They are already full! I thought it would be more than enough haha.

      These bottles they are deceptive! You're going to need another 2, surely :D
      I have 6 drawers to fill, now. At least it's explained why people sound so shocked when they say "I've filled a Helmer", if we're all talking about the same Helmer ^^

    I'd definitely use that as an excuse to get more. ;) I personally have them stored in a cute box but it's too crammed, so I'm in the process of clearing out the drawers of my desk and use them for my polishes instead. Now my desk just needs a lamp above it so I can completely turn it into a desk to do my manis, lol!

      OK, it pretty much looks like two Melmers = one Helmer. Goodness me, you have a lot of polish! Another Melmer for you!

    Ah... once upon a time I only had 97 too :D

    I keep mine on an Ikea benno cd tower - I like being able to see them. But there are too many now, too many bottles have to hide at the back. I want to get another one.

    I came up with the same result! Definitely going to need to buy more. That's what that means.

      We'll never stop needing more - may as well be honest with ourselves!
