Play Make-Up!!

Katie is very much into being a girl lately and that includes make-up. I don't so much mind putting a little white glittery eye shadow on her, but I thought she'd be thrilled with her own play make-up. Making it is crazy easy, just old make up containers and nail polish. Yet another pinterest idea!

Since I don't wear make-up everyday, by the time I'm finished with a compact or blush, it's pretty tattered looking, so I picked up some cheap stuff at Dollar Tree.


First, scrape the powder out of the compacts. It comes out really easy, just run a toothpick around the edges and it should come out in mostly one piece.


I was lucky that one of the ladies at work had a lot of old nail polish she wanted to get rid of.


Pour your desired color into the empty make up containers and set it aside to dry.


I put mine in our bathroom with the space heater on for a few hours to get it started but then it still takes days to fully set. This is not a quick project, but your little lady will be so pleased when you're finished!


I can't wait to send some to my nieces for Valentine's Day!
