Make a Paints Organizer

Saturday August 30, 2008
How do your organize the paints you use? Forum member Siamese99 has posted a photo of a nifty tube and brush organizer she put together.
"I took scrap pieces of wood, screwed them together in a step fashion so the pieces end up a little higher than the one in front and so on. Then I got two pieces of pvc pipe, cut them so that when the tubes are standing inside them the label shows with the color name, and glued them to the wood ... All the materials cost $11.00 and I still have plenty over. Not fancy but organized!"
Certainly no excuses for not being able to find a specific tube of paint with an organizer like this! See larger photo and add your thoughts Painting Forum...
