Around Christmas time Soap&Glory brought out a gift set full of makeup goodies called Girl-O-Whirl, (it is still one of my most read posts!) Now although I love the gift set, the box it came in is simply unpractical for everyday use and travelling, which is why, when I got bored the other day, I decided to make my own palette to house the contents.
I worked out that a CD case would fit everything if I removed the casing that the CD would usually sit in. Using the packaging from the original Girl-O-Whirl set I measured and cut out an insert for the front and back to make it look nicer. To keep the pans stuck in I used double sided sticky tape, however I placed the pans in tightly so they shouldn't move anyway, the tape is just to make certain they do.
I'll agree that it doesn't look the best it could, but I do believe that it will make using the different products easier. Also travelling with so many products will be very useful but I have yet to test its durability!
Sorry for the short post, just wanted to share and easy DIY! Hope you liked it, I would love to see your DIY's, and any recreations of this one!
Great packaging and the colors look lovely! :o) Xx
