Makeup bags

[Deleted]

I have a ton that I don't use, and seem to keep getting more with various freebies/deals.  Do you all actually use them all or Goodwill them?  They're taking over my linen closet.

I recently donated a bunch.

I use them for a ton of different things. I'm a crafter so I have bags holding circular knitting needles, buttons, sewing machine feet, embroidery thread, etc.

Would you like some?  lol  I can't be bothered to keep my house clean and decluttered, forget crafting!   I'm about to submit an Ulta order and they're threatening me with two new bags too, ugh.  At least one is full of samples?

I'll try to get to the linen closet and declutter it here in the next week or so and then I can send you some pics of my hoard.  You can let me know if you want any, and if so which ones!

I use them and when I get new ones, I toss the old ones. I try not to keep more on hand than I need.

I use most of mine. I have several at work that hold colored markers. At home they hold crafting stuff. I also send any extras to my mom.

I use them to organize my bathroom cabinet.  I have all my nail polishes in two (or three) of them, I have q-tips, cotton balls, whatever in another.  They really come in handy for things like that!

I fill them up with my millon free samples and give them to my sister. They can be her problem.

[pixy0stix]

I have a whole drawer full that I need to do something with.

This... is brilliant.

I use them as gift bags at birthdays and Christmas.

LOL!

I use them to organize medications and such in the linen closet. I have a few in the kitchen for stuff like bag clips and twist ties. I get one every month when my ipsy stuff comes. Some my four year old daughter takes and keeps her "collections" in (like, rocks...leaves...sticks...other random crap I don't want all over my house).

I love all my bags!!! I have managed to find uses for most of them.

I have organized the samples that I want to keep in them, as well as other bathroom things, like a nail clipper/file/cuticle stick bag, etc.

They are also good for organizing office supplies. I have a couple that I use as pencil cases or to keep things like paper clips, highlighters, post its, etc in my work bag. I have another in my work bag that I put my work receipts in.

I also use them to organize jewelry for trips. Necklaces in one, bracelets in another, etc.

I also just like having a selection of empty ones of different sizes and colors handy so for days that I need to pack a little makeup bag or organize other smaller items into my bag, I can pick out one that works best for whatever my needs are.

I haven't been doing much with mine but this thread gave me some ideas. I just started Ipsy 3-4 months ago and have a few Clinique bags (expecting one in the mail too) so I don't feel overwhelmed yet.

[secretlyevil]

I have all mine in a drawer. Use them for gifts, travel, organizing, etc.
