I got a Melmer!

My current storage consists of four mounted polish racks and one wooden shelf for all non-polish items. Today at lunch I picked up a Melmer at Michael's on sale for 40% off :) It's three drawers deep and is small enough to fit on top of my computer desk.





I will miss having my entire polish stash on display, however, I really like the idea of storing my non polish items (files, removers, Konad and frankening materials) in the drawer instead of on the corner of my computer desk.

At first I was torn between the Helmer and the Melmer. There's an awesome comparison post on MUA if anyone is interested.

Thanks for looking!

Stash Picks

So, I decided to post some picks of my current stash. Right now, I'm using racks, but I'm feeling the Helmer / Melmer calling. I love the racks because I like to be able to look at my collection, but I don't have the room to add more....and I'm outgrowing them fast! If I do get a Helmer, I always could display my favorites and rotate them from time to time....Does anyone have a Helmer? What do you think of it?
