I know some girls may be curious how others store their polish. Post pictures, links, or questions here! :)

I used to store mine in a drawer until I got these babies... they are about 44$ shipped EACH. They are a bit of an investment but well worth it. I got my first on my birthday and the second this christmas. :)

mine are just on a bookshelf that i own. i LOVE those racks! i really want to buy a rack eventually for my bathroom.

I recommend these racks to any polish collector. 

Mine are in my little 'beauty area' of my room near my hair products, I store them in plastic containers...I keep my China Glaze & Opi in one and my Essie polishes in another. It's kind of a cheap "ghetto" way to store nail polishes but it works for me :) You can get a better look in my makeup collection video on my beauty channel - youtube.com/cassandramackenzie :)

I store all these nail polishes in a container I bought when the Borders book stores were closing down. Super organized!

Oh wow I love all of your nail polish storage! I need to find a better way to store mine because I keep them in a drawer and it takes me a while to find a certain color.

I'm pretty old school. I've got a couple hundred bottles of polish and they are all in shoeboxes. I would love to have some cool storage racks to actually put the polish on display!

I've been on a mission for the past few months to make my OWN (lol) nail polish rack. I saw a few videos on YouTube of girls that made them either out of a foam board or popsicle sticks. I tried the foam board one but I couldn't get it right, So then I tried the popsicle stick one and believe it or not, 500 sticks later, I made a nail rack. I decorated it, painted it, etc. The only reason I dont have it up yet is bc I realized that I needed to make another box to add on to the rack bc I have more bottles than I thought.
I was really surprised at how sturdy it is, it doesnt fall off the wall, The girl that made the video used regular elmer's glue, but I found that using a hot glue gun was a lot easier and secure. And it only cost me under $5 to make. Here's the link to the video if your interested: http://youtu.be/J0gCsfPiBBQ
As soon as I finish the rest of the stand and hang it up I plan on taking pics for you guys to see

@ Jenn R and Alyssa S
I love your nail racks!!!! Those are exactly what I need.
@Alyssa S- How many bottles does one of those racks hold?

I'm really interested in getting these little organizers from the container store: http://www.containerstore.com/shop?productId=10031905&N=&Nao=0&Ntt=polish They only hold 9 polishes each, but I have a small collection so getting a couple of them might work for me. Anyone ever try these?

@Melanie G THOSE ORGANIZERS ARE SO CUTE! Wow those are perfect, but do you think they fit OPI or China Glaze polishes?
I display all my nail polish on my bookshelf :D

I used to keep my polishes in two baskets with all the polishes standing up right but my collection has grown enormously (almost doubled in size) since then and they are all just thrown in the baskets now :( I have around 200 bottle and I really need a good way to store them. I can't get wall racks because I don't have the wall space for them. Does anyone have any ideas about how I can store my nail polish? I'd really appreciate it :)
