My Stash - In Photos

I'd like to open this post with a shot of one of my beloved furbabies, Sydney Rory Bristow, with his mama's favorite polish, to date, Zoya Tallulah.

Inspired by my friend Debby, I decided to photograph my polish stash. Currently, I have them stored in two Caboodles (yes, old school. I wish they still made ones like the ones I have), and two photo/scrapbook boxes. Thus, it was quite a project to get them all lined up and ready for their close-ups. However, undaunted, I took on the challenge and the following pics are the result:


As of today, I am the proud owner of 227 nail polishes, not including base/top coats. Not to be ignored, here is my other beloved furbaby, Spencer Snapdragon, taking a closer look at Wet n Wild Ocean Grotto:

I hope you enjoyed this small glimpse into my insanity, um, I mean polish love?

I never EVER expected it to snowball like this. However, if you stick to your no-buy like you have been, Des, you'll be caught up again in no time. ;)

Thanks, Allison! *muah*

Miss Kari ... answer me this ... how long does the polish last before it gets too old?? I have no idea how you will use 227+ polishes before they get clumpy, but will have fun watching you try!! lol Love you MORE!! xoxoxo

Isn't it funny how Sidney and Spencer are both fascinated by shiny pretty things? I have been trying to organize mine into a spreadsheet,but the grocery shopping and heat took the day away from me.

Believe it or not, T, I found a few of these during my last visit to my mom's and some of them are upwards of 20 years old, I suspect. Knock on wood, they'll last forever! ;)

Thalie, cats never cease to amaze me. Their favorite things are plastic bags (well, Spencer loves them, to sit on) and cardboard boxes. :)

I think I'm in good company! My two favorite things are my kitties and polish! So much so, I named my blog after 'em - Paws to Polish! :-)
Thanks for sharing pictures of your fur babies, Kari - they're ADORABLE!

Take a picture of your old school Caboodles, PLEASE, I love that old stuff ;-)

Oh, and I LOVE the kitty pics with the polish and I love that so many of the polish bloggers and "addicts" all seem to be good animal people too, yay (I do not blog, just really heart and enjoy reading the polish blogs and doing my nails of course too ;-)

Thank you, Smelly Melly, lol. I will try to take a pic of the Caboodles, soon. Thanks for following, too, you're a sweetie!
