DIY Nail Polish Shelf/Rack

Like every girl out there, I own some nail polish. Okay, okay. 74 might not be some...I'm not the only one with 74 nail polishes, right? (O__O) Moving on...With so many nail polishes, there weren't some many places I could store it except in a shoe box, which isn't very practical nor pretty. I would show you a picture of how I stored it before in a shoe box but I'll spare you the sight. (^__^) So I decided I needed a new way to store it. A couple videos from YT later and I found the perfect tutorial:

I absolutely love her idea but her rack/shelf thing wasn't going to fit the space I wanted to put mine. It also wasn't going to be able to hold all of my nail polishes. (I estimated off of one of her pictures and it seem like it could only hold around 54 nail polishes.) So I decided to revise her tutorial to fit my needs. Mine turned out to be wider and fits about 76 ish polishes, give or take a few.

Package from Japan & Decoden iTouch Results

I came home last night and found that my package from Japan had finally arrived! Yay~ It's been a painful 3-4 weeks waiting for it to come. (T__T) According to Yukie, owner of fullmoon07xxx, it was suppose to come in 1-2 weeks. I'm thinking the delay was caused by the post office being busy because of the holidays, so I don't blame Yukie. (^__^) Below is the contents of my package: 

 Everything was nicely packaged in tiny plastics and wrapped in bubble wrap. 

bubble wrap = hours of entertainment

1. Clear Rhinestones 5mm
2. White Pearl 3mm, 5mm, 6mm (used them all up before I remembered to take a picture...oops xD)
3. Clear Rhinestones 3mm
4. Black Rhinestones 5mm & Ribbon 22x35mm (Color: Black)

5. Present for mentioning a name

6.  Ribbon 8x12mm (Color: Light Pink) & Mouse Cup Cake 16x18mm (Color: White)
7.  Ring 2cm diameter x4
8.  MOBILE STRAP 1Piece
9.  Lame Ribbon 8x12mm (Color: Light Pink) & Big K Ribbon 35x60mm (Color: Pink)
*Not pictured are Love Heart Angel 13mm x 28mm (Color: Light Pink), Big K Ribbon 35x60mm (Color: Light Pink), & Lollie 15x22mm and the rest of the pearls because they were used in my iPod case* 

 These weren't from Yukie, they're the tools I used for my deco den project.

10. E-600 Glue 

I haven't really tried any other glue so I can't compare but this glue was pretty awesome. So far my rhinestones haven't fallen off ,haven't become cloudy and the glue dries clear. It is kind of hard to work with though because it dries pretty quickly (like 5min?), stinks,and hard to control the amount that was coming out. In my opinipn, the texture resembles hot glue. :D

11.  Picker Up-er and Nudging Tool (?) 

To tell the truth, or if you can't already tell...it's just a lead pencil with mounting putty on its tip. It looks shabby but hey! It does it's job perfectly.  ヾ(＾∇＾)

Finished Product

This took 2-3 hours of hard labor and massive amounts of should and neck pain but it's worth it! It turned out so pretty and shiny <3 There's definitely a few mistakes here and there but it's not that noticeable. (^__^) I was planning on having the whole thing being covered with just pearls but after finishing the front part, I knew there was no way that I would have enough for the back. I was forced to use the clear rhinestones to finish it up. (.___.  ) Oh well, at least it's INSANELY SHINY on the back now and if I wanted to blind somebody with it by tilting it to catch the sunlight, I now can.
