So working on my nail polishes while also putting them on alphabet. I do have the drugstore brands seperated from the indie makers. Anyway I swatch the last drugstore ones only to find out I missed 10 when I thought I finished. So me quickly grabs those 10 to swatch. So I am done and I go back to sorting only to find out I made a mistake and I needed to move a lot just to add a couple. So I did that and then sorted the rest to fill the first drawer. First drawer is full and me is like yes! Only to see in the corner of my eye 5 drugstore polishes of a brand that starts with a C

@vengeance: Is there a significance to sorting by brand? Do they act differently? I would probably just sort everything by color, but I'm not a nail polish aficionado.

@vengeance: Ah I see. That makes sense if you actually remember the brands and what shades they have.

@vengeance: Yeah, the colors like the holos or duochromes are tricky. XD
Sounds like you have an enviable collection, though!
What did you swatch them on?

@Kozi: I am using nail swatch rings:

@Priestess of Pie: That's why I started swatching all my polishes. So I can easily see which polish is which shade XD

@vengeance: Ohhhh, clever!
Do you have to make note of how many coats to get the bottle shade?
Or is it always the same number of coats per swatch. :3

I read your title and just thought "same." Because I am a disaster all the time.

It is October, time to get spooky.

@Kozi: No it depends a polish. Some are 1 coaters, some are 2 coaters and some even need 3.

I can barely manage to put things away in drawers, much less in any kind of organized way. You might have had some trouble getting organized, but bravo on actually doing it! I love when things are organized, I'm just too lazy to do it.

I think I would have done nail polish by color so it made a rainbow in the drawer. >.>

Ah, it's really annoying when an attempt to organize goes wrong or takes longer than you want. That's been my issue to the point where I'm allowing a mess to pile up again.
