DIY: Cheap & Cute Make-Up Brush Holder

Hey guys! 

I recently was browsing the internet & found that a lot of people are selling make-up brush holders for more than $10! Seriously though you can defiantly make your own for under $10! So here is a DIY cute make-up brush holder, under $10. 

Here are all the materials you will need:  (Most of the stuff was bought @ the Dollar store.)

• A medium glass vase or preferred size of vase. ($2 @ Dollar store)
• Vase filler beads 350g. ($2 @ dollar store, you can find these @ Michaels too, but probably more expensive)

Optional: 

• Ribbon. ($1.25 @ Dollar store)
• Ice crystal gems, any color. ($1.25 @ Dollar store)
• Rub on font. (Don’t remember the price, but got them @ Michaels awhile back)
• Hot glue gun. (Any craft store, got mine @ Wal-mart for $4)

STEP 1:

• First you want to clean the vase with some soap & water, after your done that make sure it’s completely dry.

STEP 2: If your using the [Rub on font] keep reading, if not skip to next step. 

• Cut out all the letters you are using for that word. I’m going to put “Live” on the vase. 

• After you’re done cutting them out, remove the wax backing & place them on the vase on the area you want them. 
• Next, use your nail or anything & rub gently until the letter is transfer on the vase. 
• Do this to all the letters.

STEP 3:  If you want to use the [Ribbon] keep reading, if not skip to next step.

First you want to heat up your hot glue gun. Next we are going to make a bow with the ribbon. Measure how big/small you want your bow to be, cut the desired length & place where you want the bow to be. 

• Start putting on a small amount of glue onto the ribbon & placing it on the vase, leave a bit of room in the front to make your bow. 
• Now start tying your bow once you positioned everything. 
• I have included a link on a tutorial for the bow I made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwRcjaH57P8

STEP 4: If your using [Ice crystal gems] keep reading, if not skip this step. 

• We’re just going to fill the bottom of the vase with the ice gems. Fill 1/4 of the vase with the ice gems. 

STEP 5: Using the [Vase filler beads].

• Fill ¾ of the vase with the Vase filler beads. 

STEP 6:

• Place the make-up brushes & we are done!

You can also place different thing in the vases, like pens, pencils, paint brushes, etc. Be creative!
