that a person could be doing on a Saturday night - but I ended up in a sorting and tidying mood after doing my little Copic ciao colour chart.
And the latest victim of my little spring blitz was my make-up stash...
I am a real procrastinator when it comes to sharpening my eyeliner pencils - so much so that all my regular shades end up blunt until I finally break down and sharpen them... There must be 10 blunt pencils there!
And then that leads to that other rare activity - cleaning my brushes! I am so lazy when it comes to this, but some of them are looking a little the worse for wear.
And after that, I might as well get back to that Paperchase album:
I just need something to reinforce the top holes as those kraft sheets from Paperchase are really flimsy - not thin cardstock, thin paper. :o( I wonder if you can still buy those reinforcer circle things you used to get for ring files, but in kraft!
Right best get to it if I am to finish anything before the clocks go forward! :oP
Oh my god. You clean your makeup brushes ASWELL as your rubber stamps!!?!

You know, when I was writing this post I just knew you would say something about this! Don't worry, I only ever do it about twice a year... :oP

Hmmmm you should be able to get those reinforcements, and you could "ink" them!!!

I didn't even know it was possible to clean makeup brushes.....

I can only find white reinforcements, shame there are no kraft ones, but looks like they will have to do the job... will see what my local Stationery store has on offer.
And Bev, yes it is possible - it can be done! :oP
My mum uses shampoo for hers but I prefer this cleaner I bought in Sephora in the US, does the job really well, especially on concealer/cream eyeshadow brushes. I have a couple of Smashbox brushes that would be quite pricey to replace so I take care of those. ;o)
