How to : DO IT YOURSELF (DIY) CD & DVD Palette

Hey lovelies , hope you are doing great and having a great evening. Today I feel like writing in English and I'd like to share with you some DIY cool stuff :))

As you can tell from my latest post, I am a obsessed with organisation and I hate having loads of single eyeshadows and small palettes all over my drawers, plus it's quite an annoyance to carry around numerous single eyeshadow pots whenever I travel.

So DEPOTTING is the solution !! It's an easy way to condense my collection like professional makeup artists. I take the product out of the original container or packaging and put it into a single palette.  It saves me loaaaaaaaads of  space and allows me to further organize my collection .Result : a better storage, portability and organization.

But the thing is, we do not all have the chance to have neither a Z palette, a Makeup forever nor a MAC one, either because they're not available in Tunisia or expensive. This is why I'm going to show you a more affordable way of doing it using your CD or DVD cover ;)

Let me be brief and show you how I do it my way.
In order to depot all you need to have is a  a sheet pan , a vegetable peeler  or a sharp knife an oven :) , of course a CD or a DVD cover and some roller tape (scotch).

Precautions: Please be careful if you are going to attempt to depot! . Sharp tools, such as knives, should be handled with extreme caution and care.

place all your palettes & pots onto a sheet pan, lay them on some aluminium  foil, preheat you oven at 160 °C, leave them from 8 to 14 mns, until the glue is meted down.

once the packaging is melted, all u need to do is to gently remove the shadow pans using a knife or a spatula, or anything flat

you can see the packaging has melted, and so is the glue. Now you can start depotting safely, yet with a lot of care. Pay attention to the heat coming out of the eyshadow pans. Wear gloves if necessary!!!

Depotting may sound easy, but it's not, it requires a lot of care & patience. If you are impatient, you'll end up breaking you shadows, like I did :(

Almost done ;)

look how much junck I got rid of

My CD Palette is  ready, see how I condensed all those single eyeshadows in the bag into that amazing flat, compact, and light weight palette !!! all I needed was a roller tape
