Steal of the Week



If you have a lot of beauty products you will know storage is a big deal and the only way of feeling organized! I'm personally always on the look out for nice quality storage drawers or boxes though for some reason they normally aren't that cheap!  

However while having a browse in Matalan this week (something I rarely do) I found two lovely storage boxes in the home section for £5 each. 

Which to me is a really great price especially for the size and quality of them! I did also notice they came in a cream and also a more natural rattan shade - which would be perfect as living/dining room storage.



For the time being while I'm still sorting out my main bedroom they are just going to sit on top of my wardrobe with items them always seem to clutter things up - like bulky skincare products and magazines.

As for what they are made from - they are material lined and quite sturdy, so can take quite a bit of weight. With an almost woven exterior with hard wearing plastic handles that have nice stitching detail to them. 
Size wise they are quite big, I would say the length of them is over 30cm.


For £5 each I am more than happy with my new storage!

    I really wish we had Matalan her in Ireland, I always see their ads and think their stuff looks good! And I'm looking for storage as my make up collection is out of control, might try to order it online. Thanks x

    Those look really good actually, especially for make up, products and even magazines like you've used them for. I actually really like Matalan, you can get some really good bits and pieces in there and I like it even more now that I get discount because my sister works there!

    I've got a cream spotty one which I use to chuck shoes in in my livingroom. I too was surprised that it was only £5 x
