Magnetic Makeup Board

Having a teenage daughter means that you have messes everywhere. Clothes on the floor, towels on the bathroom floor and makeup all over the vanity. I was tired of knocking eyeshadows into the sink every time I washed my hands. I decided to find a way to organize her makeup but still keep my decor looking the way I wanted it to.
I looked for a big frame but everywhere I went they were $60 or more. That was more than I wanted to spend so I started looking at yard sales. I found this one for $5 and I removed the mirror.
I bought a big piece of sheet metal at Lowes. I spray painted it a black satin and coated it in a satin poly.
The magnets on the back of the makeup stick to the sheet of metal.
It's a great way to keep a teen's bathroom organized!

Love love love this idea!! You could also look for magnetic hooks and hang jewelry to the board as well 😊

I did not know about the magnetic tape, guess I'm behind the times but now that I know a whole batch of ideas come to mind. Thanks.
