Tim A. Gordy on Jan 11, 2015@Heather72, you can get metal grids, with dif size spacing, if you hang them diagonally, it will hold the bottles horizontallyHelpful Reply

Art Genneken on Jan 11, 2015If they are small bottles like I use from JoAnn , I cut different size pieces of PC pipe to fit the width and depth of the bottles. Glue them in a stack with PVC glue, and stand them against the wall. Easy to get to and save counter space.Helpful Reply

Tracy Williams on Jan 11, 2015If they are the small bottles paint a dot on the top of the container & then lay them down so you can see the top & know what colors you have. Then glue some smaller boxes together & put them in by color (just saying the flat rate boxes from the post office work pretty darn good for this) :-)Helpful Reply

Gloria Duy on Jan 11, 2015If you are talking wall paint, I pour the paint into Dollar Store plastic leftover containers, label with a marker and stack in a plastic basket. I whole shelf of paint turned into one basket. The paint also keeps better tan in a can. If you are talking craft paints you could use a spice rack from a resale shop.Helpful Reply

Fran McCarty on Jan 11, 2015Baby food jars are great for small amounts of paint. Paint the lid the color of the paint and store in a drawer or box. You can easily see the paint color because of the lid being painted.Helpful Reply
