Craft Paint storage

I'm in love with my new craft paint storage. I used to keep the paints in a drawer which was a pain because I could never tell what paint colors I had just at a glance. With this new system I can easily see what I have and what I need.


These were very simple to put together with things I already had. I had some old modular wire shelves like these that I haven't been using.  For each shelf I used two panels.  I purchased 4 wood spools per shelf at Michael's and painted them white.  I realized I needed something in the back between the panel and the wall to allow for the lid of the paints.  I had some chunks of wood that had a hole in them already.  My back up plan was to cut a cork in half and put a hole in it. 


I used wire that I had around the house to attach the panels to the spool and wood pieces.  Easy peasy.  Some simple ribbon made hangers and the project is done!
