If you are a nail polish aficionado, chances are you have a drawer, basket, bin etc. where you dump all of your favorite colors. It’s a quick, easy thing to do but it can be a struggle when you return to it to find that perfect color amongst the ever-growing pile. A nail polish organizer is a great way to display your glitters and golds whilst being easy on the eyes. You will have a lot more free space and an easier time finding all you need for your next manicure. Here are a few options to get you started.

These shelves from Makartt are simple, crisp, and clean. They will add a new level of professionalism and organization to any manicure space, including your bedroom. Each set comes with 3 shelves that can be mounted individually and measure 15 inches long and 1.5 inches wide. You can fit roughly 10 or 11 bottles of nail polish on each one, though that of course depends on the bottle’s shape and size. With these shelves, you will undoubtedly save space while creating a custom way to organize whether that be by color, brand, or finish.

These high-density foam organizers come in a wide variety of sizes, the smallest holding 30 bottles and the largest holding 63. The material is easily washable, non-slip, and rattle-proof. Keep your frequently used colors where you can find them or bring some that have been long forgotten to the front.
