One thing I was most excited about was setting up a dressing table area where I could put my make up. I had seen a couple of really nice dressing tables I wanted to get but instead I decided to go for a more practical approach.
Rather than buying a dressing table, I decided to set up my dressing table area on top of my chest of drawers - These are the Malm 3 drawers from Ikea and were a bargain at £35!
I knew I wanted to have some drawers on the dressing table and I lusted after the Muji ones but at £25 I couldn't justify it! I spotted these drawers in a local vintage warehouse near where I live and at £7 I just couldn't leave them behind.
The lamp is from Argos and is more of a practical use than anything (have you ever tried running across the bedroom in the dark).
When I was in Birmingham for the Midlands Blogger Meet up a few weeks ago, I couldn't resist just nipping into Muji and having a look. I am so glad I did now as I found a couple of things that were perfect for my new dressing table. I spotted this PP storage, I can't find it on the website and I can't remember how much it was but it was around £2-3. It has 6 compartments on it and it is perfect for storing make up brushes.
While looking at the PP storage I spotted these little beauties. I was a little twitched by how messy my eye liners, mascaras and lipsticks were looking
The smaller ones on the right were £1.95 and are available here and the larger one was £2.25 and is available here
Since I took the top picture I have also brought a large mirror as you just can't do your make up the same in a small mirror!
I am really loving this little set up! As you can see I have a lot of beauty products that I need to get through :)
Better get tasting and reviewing!
