I’m not very skilled in the sewing department, but I can do some basics.
I needed a larger makeup brush roll, but I couldn’t find a pattern that I liked. I perused Etsy, of course, but oftentimes the fabrics used are busy. I was looking for something plain and simple!
And then I found myself in the placemat aisle at Target. I picked up a simple placemat, that was already straight, even, and nicely finished on all the ends. And I thought to myself, “Well, this could possibly be the easiest project in the world”. So I purchased this perfectly sized and prepared bit of fabric (for about $3.00), folded and sewed.
And easy it was.
Here was the process:
1. Fold up bottom of placemat approx. 3 1/2 inches. and pin in place.
2. Slip a 2 foot long piece of ribbon under pin to hold in place. (this will act as a “wrap” to keep the roll together) Sew a straight line along both sides to seal the edges.
3. Measure makeup brush “pockets” depending on your needs and pin in place. I did 1/12 inch spaces for large brushes, and 1 inch spaces for small (eyeshadow, concealer, etc) brushes.
4. And now for the hardest part, sew a straight line to the top of the folded section. Continue all the way down until you reach the other end of the placemat.
. . . and thats pretty much it!
ugly bathroom lighting. . . See my small brush roll back there? I definitely needed more space!
Look at this beauty! all my brushes fit! PLUS my eyeliners. I leave those 2 brushes in the middle out since they are double ended.
I was so excited about my finished product that I made TWO and I want to give one to one of YOU! (I can rhyme too!) <–nerd-alert.
Anyway, here are the details:
The brush roll is the size of a standard placemat. ( 18.5 x 9 inches )
It’s kind of a minty, greeny, blue.
There are 6 large (1.5 inch) pockets and 9 small (1 inch) pockets.
Here is how to enter the giveaway for your very own Makeup Brush Roll:

This is sooo cute! I’ve been looking for something simple also! My new favorite brush is my new foundation brush. I used to just use those sponges, I just never spend the money on a foundation brush but now that I have it I love it! I love all my brushes but its my new favorite!
What a cool idea! Sometimes I find that with DIY items I end up spending more than the actual item were to cost if I bought it, but this one is great!! I recently purchased a stipple blush brush from ELF and love it, but I have my old standard Trish McEvoy brushes from college that I will never give up. Love your blog!
My favorite brush is an organic blush brush. I just purchased a few organic brushes the other day and they are so much softer on my skin than the others I used to buy!
This is a great idea for a chilly crafternoon! I only wish I knew about it for Christmas 🙂 My absolute favorite brush is my kabuki brush for my loose mineral powder. Even application every time! ajudge.williams@gmail.com
this is such a good idea!!!! My favorite brushes are the double ended ones from bare escentuals.. I also love bed head makeup brushes! britt.tucker10@gmail.com
My favorite brush is a bare escentuals perfect application foundation brush. I LOVE their products. I really want to invest in some MAC brushes soon though…
Great job – these would make great gifts! My all time favorite EVER brush is the MAC 217. If I could only have 1 brush for eyes, this would be the one.
Wow this is so cool, great way to turn one thing into something else. I love my eyeshadow brush, this would be very handy for me to store my brushes in (since i can’t sew, everytime I use the sewing machine it jams up on me) I would love to win this!! I am already a follower and love all your turtorials!! Kristan sierrababy08@hotmail.com
Love the blush brush I picked up at the airport when I realized I left mine at home. Airport had a Body Shop store and it saved me! Jaxreed2000@yahoo.com
Love the blush brush I picked up at the airport when I realized I left mine at home. Airport had a Body Shop store and it saved me! Jaxreed2000@yahoo.com
I love my Bare escentuals Kabuki Brush! It’s great for everyday use and would be great in a makeup brush roll!!! <3 your blog!!! mkimberly1985@yahoo.com
Oh my! I love this! My current roll is about the size of your old one and it’s beyond bursting at the seams! My favorite brush is my mineral powder foundation brush. Can’t live without some foundation to even out my complexion! 😉
How clever! I wish I was crafty like that. I can barely sew a button back on:( But, I would have to say my fav. brush would be my shadow brush. I have two and the are 13 years old. Think it’s time to buy some new ones!!
My favorite brush is my Eco Tools Bamboo Bronzing Brush!! I use it for face powder though cause its extra soft!! And it’s animal friendly!! Love your blog!! kimberlycclosner@hotmail.com
I just bought a bunch of EcoTool Brushes and so far I’m in love the powder and kabuki brushes! No more shedding like my bare escentual brushes! staceymthomas86@gmail.com
My favorite brush is my Kabuki brush which is used for the all-important bronzer. I use it to brush it on my cheeks, sometimes my eyes when I when I don’t want to wear too much make-up, and even the cleavage just to accentuate a bit.
ADORE your blog!!! I’m so glad I stumbled upon it.
great project! I love my Bare Escentuals double – ended eye brush. I can’t remember what it is called and am too lazy to run up the stairs and look 🙂 But, I think it is something and “define.” kendraburton@bellsouth.net
Such a clever idea! I wish I owned a sewing machine to attempt this. I love my blush brush, but my favorite would be my eye shadow brush, it’s the best. mpierce09@gmail.com
Oh. my. word! I want this! My favorite brush is a thick, short brush that I use to put eye shadow on. I don’t remember the brand….it was probably very cheap b/c I am! LOL! Anyway, if I win this, it will definitely go in it!
I didn’t know what a brush roll was until this post! Now I need one 🙂 My go-to brush is my big, fluffy powder brush from Clinique, though I’d like to give a foundation brush a try. I’m just intimidated at the idea of having to clean it every.single.day…
Kate… you’re adorable! What a clever little idea. My favorite brushes are definitly my Bare Essentials brushes. The blush brush… the eye shadow brushes… I use them all daily! This role would be a highly used item!
My favorite brush is by Sonia Kashuk. It came in a 5-pack of brushes and it’s a big, fluffy blush brush that is so soft that putting on blush has become my favorite part of my makeup routine! And, to top it off, it has the cutest black and white patterned handle!
I LOVE this!! One more reason I NEED a sewing machine!! My favorite brush WAS my Kabuki Brish from Bare Esuentials, but my cat ate it. Seriously… my cat found it and all I found was the handle. I don’t even know where all the bristles went!!! I kept waiting for the mother of all hairballs, but it never came. (???)
Very cool project I love my shadow brushes because they are the ones that get the most use…I can’t remember the brand they are, and I’m too comfy on my couch to go see {sad, I know}, but I’d love to have the brush roll to put them in!
This is quite neat!!! My favorite brush is a blending eyeshadow brush made my Sonia Kashuk for Target! I also have an eyeliner from Clinique in a little pot that comes with a tiny applicator paint brush that I’m always losing and it needs a permanent home! Keep up the great work!! ~ Lauren Laurenc81@hotmail.com
I am new to your blog, and I love it! You’re style is a lot like mine too:) my favorite brushes are Mac and bare essentials- but I have Sonya ? brushes from target that I love just as much! Katequamme79@gmail.com
My favorite brush is my large eye shadow brush by Smashbox. Great for all over color and have another smaller eye shadow brush by Smashbox for crease shadow. Jamie jamiemcsherry@earthlink.net
My favorite eye brush is the crease brush. All of my gf’s always ask me, “how do you get that definition in your crease? You will have to show me one day.” Little do they know thats its not my magician techniques of makeup application, but just the simple little crease brush which is amazing. One which they will all be receiving in a goodie bag for being a bridesmaid in my wedding! Great idea in using a placemat btw, and I am jealous of all of your mathcing, clean brushes.
Well, aren’t you the clever one! 🙂 My favorite brush in the foundation brush, don’t know how I survived before I discovered this handy little brush. Laura.J.Myers1@gmail.com
So creative. My favorite brush is my eyeliner brush. Ever since I got it from MAC I haven’t even gone back to liquid eyeliner. I just love the way it applies my powder liner. I’d love to win the brush holder. Thanks. ssrobinson76@yahoo.com
I love this! My only DiY downfall is sewing, and my mother is literally a master seamstress, go figure. My favorite brush is my Ulta blush brush. It has a short, fat handle so it fits perfectly in my make-up bag. Something like this would give me an excuse to add to my collection!
This is such a great idea!! My favorite brush is the one from ELF (it’s only $1!) -it’s the contour brush. I wouldn’t be able to do a smoky eye without it!! CraftyLindsey@hotmail.com
I am just beginning to focus more on my makeup, so I only have two brushes right now 😛 I suppose my favourite of the two is my coverup brush. Works so much better than the tip of my finger.
Love the brush roll! What a great idea! I have a few great sets from Sephora and Ulta, but my favorite brush is my kabuki brush. I couldn’t live without it.
My favorite brushes are from Sephora. I love the horse hair ones. And brush cleanser is a definite must. I get that at Sephora too. jillbartelscohen@gmail.com
My favorite brush is the Bare Essentials Full Flawless Face brush. It is so soft, which is good for my sensitive skin! I love your blog! I would make one of these, but I don’t have a sewing machine. My e-mail is bethanyhummel@yahoo.com
I don’t know the brand (something cheap from Target probably) but my favorite brush is my foundation brush – it makes me feel like I get to paint my face when I use it!
My favorite brush is my crease brush from Sonia Kashuk. I have an entire set of her brushes and I just love them. But the crease brush is my favorite. If I could just have one, it would be that one.
I have no idea what brand my brush is but it is a family hand me down. It is my powder brush. It started with my grandmother, made its way to my mother and now to me. They don’t make brushes like they used to. It is so durable and has just enough bristles that it doesn’t grab to much powder and it doesn’t loose bristles like the new ones do.
My favourite brush is the MAC 208 Angled Brow Brush. I don’t wear a lot of makeup, but I like to have defined eyebrows to frame my glass-wearing face! emilydemyen@hotmail.com
This is a great idea! I really like the angled brush for doing eye liner. I love mixing my bare minerals eye lid primer with a little bit of shadow and using an angled brush.
Being a college student, I normally go to http://www.eyeslipsface.com to buy my brushes. I have always wanted to try brushes from Jane Iredale, though. P.S. This is an AWESOME idea. More DIY projects, please! (I need study breaks : ) )
I am not entering since all my brushes have mini handles to fit in my medicine cabinet (small NY apartment bathrooms!) but I just wanted to comment that your post is inspiring me to check the placemat section of the store more often. I have a 2 year old so we avoid cloth placemats at all costs since she gets food on everything at every meal. Sometimes I miss the pretty colors but had never considered buying placemats and using them for other projects. Thank you!!!!
Brilliant idea!!! My favorite brush is my kabuki brush. I don’t know what I would do without that and my mineral powder! Thank you for you wonderful blog.
Very cute! I am always scrounging around looking for the right brush in my make drawer. My favorite brush is my Smashbox powder brush. It’s big, soft and holds powder really well.
I never win anything!! Please pick me!! I have a Merle Norman powder brush(59940) I’ve had it for years! I’ve recently been watching your tutorials & went out and bought some eyeshadow brushes to try,(Ive always just used the spongey things that come w the shadows) I love using the brushes but definitely need somewhere to put them now:) terri_618@yahoo.com
That has got to be one of the most brilliant ideas! You are so clever. My favorite brush is my basic eyebrow/eyelash seperator brush. Can’t wait to fill your awesome bag with my brushes! jennaeby@ymail.com
I am in desperate need of some quality makeup brushes, so I plan to read through these comments for suggestions! Thanks for the giveaway, hope to win 🙂
my favorite brush is my ulta blush brush… large enough to not make me look streaky & built so well i have tons of control over the color!! very versital!!! <3 mommytot1@yahoo.com
This is so pretty! I usually use brushes from Forever 21…. Cheap I know, but they are super soft, inexpensive and have the cutest designs! -Rachel reshoemaker87@yahoo.com
I had to go to the derm and ended up getting some new makeup and am loving the Jane Iredale foundation brush. I also discovered the brush guard which is a mesh cover-like thing that keeps your bristles gathered together while in your bag. It is fabulous!! Helps them keep their shape. Thanks for the giveaway Kate!!
My fave brush is a Bare Minerals brush that is fluffy and great for using in the crease. Also my eye brow powder angled brush is awesome. I could go on all day about my brushes.
I absolutely LOVE your makeup brush roll – such a cute idea! My favorite makeup brush has to be my eyeshadow brush – so soft and applies shadow evenly without smudging! ~Cory cory.rhodes@gmail.com
My favorite make-up brush is actually from Target and it’s by Sonia kushuk. I love it and I am picky about brushes. It is perfect for getting the darker color in the corner if your eye. Lauren.Laws@gmail.com
Love this, it’s so pretty. I have a huge brush that I use at the end of my makeup application to brush off all the excess eye shadow that’s fallen on my cheeks. It’s my favorite.
My favorite make-up brush is actually from Target and it’s by Sonia kushuk. I love it and I am picky about brushes. It is perfect for getting the darker color in the corner if your eye. Lauren.Laws@gmail.com
Such a great DIY idea – and so simple! I couldn’t live without my Jane Iredale kabuki brush. Everything pales in comparison. nicolle.westlund@gmail.com
I’ve been really love my Sigma brushes lately, but I always seem to go back to my Sonia Kashuk brushes (from Target!) LOVE the slanted eyeliner brush! tangtrees@gmail.com
I bought a Smudge brush from Target that I love. It was just the “Up and Up” brand that they have and it was 2.49! It’s essential to have a great Smudge brush if you want to make a great smokey eye. Loribell23@yahoo.com
My favorite brush is my Sonia Kashuk blush brush. Of all the pricey options out there, this brush from Target is my fave! Love her angled eyeliner brush too.
Seriously impressed with your craftiness too! I don’t own a sewing machine – I’d probably end up sewing my fingers together. 🙂
OmG I love the brush roll! FaBuLoUs IDEA!! My favorite brushes are from Bare Essentials. My old brush roll is from Target, nothing fancy. This idea is great…. It’s the perfect size to hold everything one needs. I LOVE your blog, such great ideas!
What a great idea! I never think of things like this so thank goodness for you! I don’t have a sewing machine so my only chance is to win this….fingers crossed:) my favorite brush is my contour brush from bare escentuals. Heidihoffman07@gmail.com
I have just entered the wonderful world of makeup burshes! I always just used the little sponge applicators that came with the makeup or my fingers! I really love one of my ecotools eye shadow brushes. It is an angled crease brush. It really helps me out 🙂 Love your blog and thanks for sharing your wonderful tips and tutorials! Magen914@gmail.com
My favorite brush is my Bare Essentials Kabuki Brush..it’s perfect for applying a powder foundation. Love the idea of a brush roll! I don’t have a sewing machine or I’d try to make it myself! Thanks so much for the opportunity to win!
I have tons of brushes that I’ve gotten over the years. I have them all in a drawer right now and honestly don’t use most of them because I forget that they are there, so this would be PERFECT for me! My favorite brush is my contour brush! Crossing my fingers in hopes of winning this! katherineprice07@gmail.com
Oh wow! Awesome giveaway, and I love that it is hand made 🙂
I have two brushes that I always claim I can’t live without. If I had to pick just one it would without a doubt have to be my eyeliner brush. I am addicted to powder/gel liners. I have used them so long that pencil liners are difficult for me to put on now, lol! My pencil brush for crease application is a close second 🙂 email: helennaturally@gmail.com
I love this makeup roll! I need to dump all of my brushes on a towel everyday — and it’s very disorganized. My favorite brush is the Bare Essentials Heavenly Face Brush — it’s perfect!
I really love eye shadow and blush brushes. I have been looking for a new set though and have been trying to find some that are nice so this would be a great way to keep new brushes nice longer. Lauren http://www.daisyraedesign.blogspot.com laurenraeatkins@hotmail.com
I admire your patience–every time I get near a sewing machine, I get overwhelmed. I’d say the one I use the most is the Sephora Professional Contour brush (a round, flat top brush) so that one would my favorite/and/or necessity for me!
I have a lot of great brushes, but my favorite is an Elizabeth Arden shadow brush that my mom gave me when I was about 12 years old (I’m 37 now). I can remember playing with it in her bathroom before she gave it to me. I use it every day!
Love the brush roll….looks so simple to make! If I don’t win I will make one! I really don’t have a favorite brush I really love all of them I have Mary Kay and Bare Essentials. If I had to pick one it would be my angled brush from bare essentials for my eye shadow.
I love your blog – and all your hair tutorials. I always get complements on my hair when I try one of your styles
First of all, I LOVE your blog! I found it through Jenna’s (eatliverun) blog and am officially addicted! My favorite brush would have to be the one I use for all-over shadow. Not sure what the name of it is, but its fat and fluffy. I have way too many brushes, so this would be so awesome to help me organize!! My email address is: meganmckee1@hotmail.com
This is the neatest idea! I hate the way my brushes “tint” everything in my makeup bag… I would have to say my favorite brush is either my Bronzer brush or my eye shadow brush. I would love to win this item!
I love ALL of my brushes from ELF! If I had to pick one, I’d have to choose my eye crease brush. It is perfect that smoky look and I use it every single day. Thanks! amanda.reinert@bryancave.com
So crafty, I love it! My fave brushes right now are the Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman-I have several, and they are all amazing! Email: bpopro(at)att(dot)net.
I have a lot of brushes…2 different sets from E.L.F. I would add my most used brushes to the roll. I think my favorite brush that I have would be the flat top blush brush that I use for foundation.
I don’t have a sewing machine, but I may head to my friends house (that has one) and make it a group project. Although I don’t have3 many brushes, I would like to add a foundation blending brush to my (small) arsenal. Or, I could just make the sleeves different sizes to accommodate my small hair cutting scissors and tweezers.:)
It’s a toss up for me! I’m stuck between my clinique bronzer brush and my clinique powder brush. I can do my eyes with pretty much anything, qtip, finger, sponge, but I cannot get the application of my powder foundation (glo minerals) with out one of this two brushes.
Love your blog! I check back daily hoping for a new post.
My favorite make up brush is my eyeliner brush. I really enjoy the pop that eye color can give someone and the drama it can bring. If I don’t win I will defiantly be making one! bmbarrow@hotmail.com
I could definately use this! It is hard to choose a favorite, but use my Bare Escentuals Shadow brush every day and love it! Thanks for the great idea!!! Erin klekar26@sbcglobal.net
The brush I use everyday is for my mineral foundation from Mary Kay so that would be my favorite because without it I would have no makeup on 🙂 ! I have had it forever and defintely need a new one (plus all new brushes 🙂 )
I would have to go with my Tarte blush brush as my favorite! I have so many brushes and have been trying to figure out a way to organize them. The solution for now is to throw them in a drawer but this is so much better!
I LOVE this idea!! I was just looking for something like this for the many brushes I have. At the moment they are sitting in a make up bag and it is a pain to not see them all laying out when I use them. My favorite brush is my Bobbi Brown Face Brush! I have had it forever and is the one I use every single day.
This is sooo cute! I’ve been looking for something simple also! My new favorite brush is my new foundation brush. I used to just use those sponges, I just never spend the money on a foundation brush but now that I have it I love it! I love all my brushes but its my new favorite!
Wow! Another great idea. I need one of these! I have recently developed a new obsession with make-up and brushes. My latest favorite is one I got free at sephora (gotta love those freebies) that I didn’t even notice for several weeks after I got it. On one end it is a liner and the other is just a perfect blending tool for eyeshadow. If I don’t win yours, I am going to brush the dust off my sewing machine and see if I can make it work.
Such a great idea! I thoroughly suck at using a sewing machine though, so I’ll have to enter your giveaway. 🙂 My favorite brush is the Real Techniques Deluxe Crease brush. It’s perfect for blending your eyeshadows. sara.bofferding@gmail.com
I love all my brushes for bare minerals…I have 2 favorites that I cant live without!! The full coverage and the handy buki… I just got a bunch of new brushes too & I have no place to put them so that cute little wrap would be perfect!!! My email is Allie.gramme@gmail.com Ps I LOVE your blog!! 😉
I love, love, love my Studio Gear brushes. The kabuki brush is my favorite because it’s super soft and fluffy. The one I use the most is the foundation brush. They’re fabulous brushes.
I use my bronzing brush practically every day, cuz I like being tan :). Great idea on the placemat/brush bag! If I don’t win, I’m going to have my mom make one for me (she’s the whiz with the sewing machine!).
Oh my that is such a wonderful idea!!! I am going to SC this spring and I was wondering how I was going to bring my brushes along 😉 I have a few brushes but the one i really want the contour and define brush! my email is chadzgirl@yahoo.com
Cute Idea 🙂 I love my large round brush, good for all kinds of makeup applications. Plus after finding your blog i am so much more into brushes now. 🙂 carla_moo_moo@yahoo.com
How beautiful! My favorite brush is the angled brush (from Costco!) So handy! If I had a brush wrap I would definitely put that in first because I’m always losing it! blueroxy6@yahoo.com
WOW.. YOU ARE SO CREATIVE AND CRAFTY 🙂 I dont even know where to begin to sew. hehe.. I love all kids of brushes. But my favorite is the big powder brush. I got it from clinique. I love the way it feels on my skin. My email is jwagner@dpisd.org ;0)
This makeup roll is so cute! I wish I could sew! My favorite makeup brush is my Clinique Blush Brush. My Blush Brush would be the first one I’d put in the roll!
I’m a lover of the bare minerals brushes I have, which is most of them! I really love the blush brush and crease brush. My e-mail is sbjerklie@hotmail.com.
My roommate has been nagging me for the past week about how i keep my makeup brushes in a little basket beside the sink in the bathroom! He will get mad at me and sit a couple of my little eye brushes out on the sink for the water to drip all over. I’ve been looking for one of these, but i don’t like busy patterns or plain black and haven’t been able to find one! This is such a great idea! If i don’t win this, I will definitely try to make one. Although, I haven’t used a sewing machine since I was a Freshman in High School! My favorite EcoTools Kabuki brush definitely needs a better place to be stored! Thanks so much for posting this! My email is ally.stephenson@yahoo.com ! Ally
Bare Minerals brushes! They come with a brush cleaner, which I love. I also have a couple brushes from Benefit of San Francisco, but BM is my go-to brush 99% of the time!
I was just saying last week how badly I need one of these! I just got a ton of new MAC brushes for Christmas, and I need something to keep them organized. It’s so hard to pick my favorite, so I’d have to say it’s between the 217 eyeshadow brush, and my stippling brush.
Great tutorial! My favorite brush is probably the kabuki because it’s great for putting on powder foundations. If I don’t win, I’ll likely try to make one of these myself!
Anna Willis awillis@greenville.k12.sc.us says · 01.31.12
I totally love a good blush brush. Even if you’re in a rush there’s still probably a little blush left in the bristles for a quick swipe across the cheek:) Great DIY idea Small Things! Love it. It’s adorbs!
What a great idea! I have a sewing machine, but I can never figure out how to thread the thing, and I am too ADHD to sit and read the directions – zero patience! Anyway, my favorite brush is my dual ended eyeshadow brush from bare escentials. Use it every day!
tasharasmusan@hotmail.com Tasha Rasmusan I actually am in the process of redoing my makeup set….my old brushes are all off brands from discounts stores. Decided this is the year to ‘grow up’ and treat myself on all beauty products, etc. that I want. I work hard and deserve it 🙂 Great idea!
I just love eyeshadow brushes in general, they work way better than those little things that come with eyeshadows. I have 4 different ones, different shapes/angels and for different purposes. amy amypins@hotmail.com
The brush I use daily for stippling my liquid foundation is made by Elf. Elf makes some nice brushes for VERY reasonable prices. I don’t have a makeup brush roll but would love to use one!
Oh this is a good idea!!! I have some MAC brushes that came in a case but I’m not a super big fan of the case anymore. I bought my brushes a LLLOOONNNGGG time ago and I absolutely love them but a new case would be just what they need!
Question – when you need to wash the case, do you just throw it in the washing machine?
I love the color and the idea…you are a GENUIS ! I love all my brushes, but I really like my kabuki brush that I apply my bare mineral makeup with. It is so cute and small…just a fit for the hand! sylvia.wheat@yahoo.com
Genius! This is one of those “why didn’t I think of that?!” projects. I can’t wait to attempt it myself! My favorite brush is my blush one from Eco Tools. It’s the softest one I have EVER purchased, which is staying a lot for a brush junkie like me. The fact that it’s inexpensive makes it even more fabulous!
LOVE this idea!!!! I have been wanting a new brush holder!!! I currently use a caboodle (YUCK) and they are jumbled together and it DRIVES ME CRAZY! But I wanted something inexpensive. Anyway, I would fill mine first with my eye brushes…I ALWAYS have to do my eyes. I don’t leave home without eye makeup. email: heather.beach.100408@gmail.com
My favorite makeup brush is the blush/powder brush. I love my blush brush. It is big, it is soft, and it is so easy to use. I loved swirling it around on the powder and then applying it- it is a comfort tool.
My favorite is my Bare Escentuals foundation brush. BTW, love the makeup roll. You’re so crafty! If I had a sewing machine I would have no idea how to use it! Good for you!
I just purchased a set of new brushes, and since I don’t have a rollup like this, I just keep them in the container they came in, not attractive :/ I dont’ know which brush I like best, I love them all, and I enjoy using different brushes for different things and challange myself :]
Love it!! My favorite brush is my daughters! She uses brushes from bareMinerals. I guess I will have to buy my own as soon as she figures out I have one and takes it back!
I seriously need a sewing machine in my life. I’m not sure I could justify the expense to the hubs though. My favorite brush is my Sonia Kashuk Flat Blusher Brush, which is perfect for foundation.
I love my eyeshadow brush. It is an absolute must when applying eyeshadow. You just cannot use those little plastic things with “sponge nubs” that come in the compacts. Another one I can’t live without is my blush brush. I don’t wear foundation for the most part, but I do like to add color to my cheeks, and this soft, fluffy, but not overly large brush provides just the amount of color and slight contour needed to make a face beautiful. dorothy(dot)wu(at)live(dot)com
Too many to choose, but I do love my big powder brush. Love the make up roll idea, if I don’t win, I may just make one myself! Carolyn carolyndh1@hotmail.com
I am in love with my bronzer brush from Bobbi Brown!!! It is amazing!!! I really want to try and find the contour and define eye shadow brush you have. I think you mentioned it was from Bare Escentuals, but I didn’t see it on their website. Is there a similar brush you would recommend?
I love my blush brush from The Body Shop. Can’t remember what it is made of but I’ve had it for years and it looks like new still. Candy cawehrle(at)rap(dot)midco(dot)net
I stumbled across your blog and now follow it religiously each and every day! I’ve never been too skilled in the hair/makeup department but with your help I’m polishing my skills daily. I really hate to admit this but my absolute favorite brush is from the E.L.F. collection from Target (i’m sure you just fainted…) They work amazing for me and are inexpensive to replace. Thanks for all of your tips and tricks!! You’re beautiful and incredibly talented!
Love your blog and love this giveaway! I am always trying to creatively think of a way to travel with my brushes while still keeping them neat and organized…and this is PERFECT! And such a great sized brush roll bag for my (what seems like) thousands of brushes!! I hope I win! My favorite brushes are MAC 286 and 239, and I also love my Sonia Kashuk eyeliner smudger brush! 🙂
I love the HD Foundation Brush at Sephora- it has changed my whole makeup routine. Currently, my brushes are at home in a messy makeup drawer so this would be perfect for me. PS> Your blog is AWESOME!!! -Holly- hlk0312@gmail.com
My favorite is the eyeliner blush by bare esccentials. Love the idea! I’m new to your blog and addicted already! I love the tutorials. kimberly.r.pilgrim@us.army.mil
I love my angled blush brush!!! So much better than a standard blush brush! I would love to win this as currently my brushes are sitting in a glass jar! Kimberly Solis – kdsolis@att.net
Love this! My favorite brush is my full flawless application brush from Bare Escentuals, which is also the brush that I would start filling this awsome brush roll with! This is such a great idea, I always try to stuff my brushes in my makeup bag which will then not zip! Thanks for all of your tutorials love them!
Oh my gosh i love love love love this!!! all my brushes are floating around in my makeup bag. My favorite brush is the full coverage one that I put my mineral veil on with. It’s so soft and it does the perfect job!
Sadly, my favorite brush is my blush brush from Avon years ago! The way it’s shaped just fits perfectly to where your blush should go on your face, and it’s the right thickness too! Just haven’t felt a need yet to find another one! My favorite eye brush set though is my sigma ones, they work wonders!
that’s pretty cool! what a great idea! my fave brush is my concelar brush, it’s the first one i use in the morning and a great start to my make up routine.
My favorite brush is my 2 in 1 brush. I just just recently got a brush to have dramatic smokey eye and love that everything i need is on one brush. Its rounded on one end and loose on the other. Boy am I HOPING to win this AWESOME brush bag!!!!
What a neat idea! My fav brush would have to be my BE handy buki brush! I have a ton of BE brushes and a few others but I just throw them all in a drawer! lol

Wow! That’s awesome! I love the idea! I just recently purchased brushes from barescentuals and I love my new blush brush! I love all make up brushes! I feel like a real “artist” and they make putting on make up fun for me! Rhonda hudson6@charter.net
My favorite is my MAC pencil brush – it defines the outer “V” perfectly and is great for smudging shadow under your lashline. stephlr(at)hotmail(dot)com
Too cute! My fav makeup brush is MAC #187 ~ Duo Fibre Brush. It’s the perfect foundation brush to give you the airbrush effect. My #187 would love a new home for storage and travel!. =)
I love love love my Mac Brushes (ALL OF THEM)!! they are the only ones I have ever found that do NOT fall apart after washing them. I have been looking for a brush roll up bag that would be perfect for traveling and keeping in the bathroom.
Hi, I am very challenged when it comes to make-up as I am the only girl in my family that wears more than lipstick. I know, gasp! I have recently discovered ELF for practice make-up and currently have that brush collection even though I am not quite sure how to use them yet. ha! Cute idea! Laura Nestingandnibbling(at)hotmail(dot)com
my favorite would have to be the eyeshadow contour brush….i think. i use it almost exclusively because its one of the few that i have (but i would buy more if i won). my second favorite would have to be the blush brush. i love how big and fun it is! thanks for the fun post!
Love this idea I would totally make it if I don’t win one!! My favorite brush there is so many but I would have to say its my smashbox eye liner brush. Or my Bobby Brown blush brush. I totally found your blog through Pinterest and I love everything about it. Keep up the great work. Also so happy to see your a Christian made my day when I was reading through old stuff. Have a wonderful day Jacqueline jacqueline.mclean@shaw.ca
This is awesome! I am too in need of a traveling brush carrier! I have a dark bag that they all get lost in! My favorite brush at the moment is my Bobbi Brown bronzing brush!
I love my eye shadow crease brush. I found a makeup brush roll that was far more involved that this one. This would be about the right speed for me as I don’t sew, but it would be even better if I didn’t have to do anything!! 🙂
I love this idea. i came across your blog and i love reading about your interesting ideas!!!
I just learning how to do my own makeup so i have a bunch of brushes im not too familiar with…so i will go with the blush brush since its the one i know how to use 🙂
My favorite brush is the one I use for bronzer and blush, I can push it up to tighten the bristles or down to make it bigger. love it! Thanks for the giveaway, this is so cute! Amanda- glowcze1@msu.edu
I love Sonia Kashuk eyeshadow brushes…they work well and are a great value. I love the brush roll and your creativity is amazing…who would have thought a simple placemat would double as a brush roll…love it!!!
Such a great project! I’ve been wanting a brush roll forever for travel, and this one would be perfect 🙂 My favorite brush is a $1 e.l.f. eyeshadow brush…in fact, I own 3. Super inexpensive and they work great.
I love the angled eyeliner brush. I’d love for you to do a tutorial on how to utilize different types of eye brushes… I feel like I’m not ever sure what each one in my big set is for (mine aren’t all labeled like yours! What brand are yours?) Thanks for the chance to win. I love your blog!
Believe it or not, my favorite brush is an eye shadow brush made by “Jane” cosmetics—a drug store cheapie that I’ve had for years! Thank goodness I purchased more than one since they no longer make them. It’s a perfect narrow brush great for doing my creases with shadow. It’s not even contoured. I’ve purchased more expensive brushes from department stores, but some of my favorite (read: “easy to use”) are my drug store brushes! Ulta and Sephora also have good brushes via their store brands. Love the cosmetic roll! What makes it even better is that you can probably put into a lingerie bag and wash on gentle cycle when you need to freshen it up! Fabulous! Love your blog! Page McBay mcbaymom@yahoo.com
Sedona Lace Make Up Brushes are an absolute MUST in ANY make up lovers collection!! My favorite from their collection is the tulip brush!! sonya320@hotmail.com
I have to say my favorite brush is Trish Mcevoy’s Powder Brush , I always go back to it !!! By the way awesome brush holder Kate!!!! xoxo tonyadew@gmail.com
My FAVORITE of all times brush is my buffer brush from MAC! I love using it for my blush! It goes on perfect! I do not know what I would do with out my brushes! This is the best idea! I love it!:)
what a great way to store brushes! wish I knew how to use a sewing maching :(. My favorite “new” brush is my smudge brush by Sephora. bsawyer71@gmail.com
This is such a great idea Kate. I love my Kabuki brush from Bare Escentuals and my Coastal Scents brushes. Right now they’re an unorganized mess and would love this!!
I love, love, love my KABUCKI brush! I cannot live without it! If you don’t have one, I highly recommend it! P.S. Love your blog! Missy meesay@gmail.com
My favorite brush is my organic full coverage brush. Being that I have really bad allergies, I find this brush to be A-MAZING!!!!! It is all natural and gives me a flawless look while not affecting my allergies. Being that I have experienced an Anaphylactic reaction, I have to choose everyday items very carefully! I just came across your blog and have falled in love with it! In fact, I used your flat iron straight techniques this morning and have gotten so many compliments at work today!!! THANK YOU!!! If you were in Virginia, I would drive to you and let you be my hairstylist!!!
I love my mac eyeliner brush! It’s dainty and precise and always brings a smile to my face when I use it because knowing i’ve washed it and used it a million times that the quality is there and it looks brand new! give me the perfect cat eye with my creme liner.. oh Mac eyeliner brush.. I lurve thee!!!! <3 <3 <3 – I will take care of your brush mat and promise to LURVE it too! -Andrea …. amarin1718@yahoo.com
Genious! No more digging to the bottom of my makeup back for my brushes and liners! My fav is my bareMinerals Precision Concealer Brush – combined with the concealor it makes for one powerful weapon against my horrible skin. arsloan23@hotmail.com
I have a cheap one from target that I love. Of course, I’ve never even owned one brush until a couple months ago, so maybe I’m just getting into the brushes and would need this roll-up!
Ohh I would love to win this!! My favorite brush is MAC 209 Eye liner Brush. it’s the best, I use it to put my fluidline cream liner on my eyes. LOVE IT! kaylabrooke19@gmail.com
This is too cute! I love cliniques’ blush brush, its fluffy and covers the blush or bronzer in all the right places. I right now do not own many brushes, but I am seriously looking into bare minerals brushes after all the hype I’ve seen on the small things blog!
I love this …too cute! At the moment my favorite brush is clinique’s blush brush …I’ve found its great for using bronzer and blush. This brush is great at applying makeup in all of the right places. I do not own many makeup brushes, but i am looking inti bare minerald brushes after all of the hype that I have sern on the Small Things Blog!
Oh my gosh this is the most ingenious thing I’ve ever seen! Who needs to spend $30+ on buying one? Anyways – my favorite brush is my flat top synthetic kabuki from Sigma Brushes. It’s the most amazing brush for any kind of foundation – gives you an airbrushed finish! <3
I love this…it’s super cute! Currently my favorite brush is actually made by elf! I was shocked but this brush is actually a blending brush…its great at blending and removing the excess eyeshadoe. I am looking into bare minerals brushes after seeing all of the hype, here on thr small things blog!
I am so excited for this! I went to art school and paint on the side still, and this is SUPER cute! I have one of these for my paint brushes but NEVER thought of it for my makeup brushes!? I just have those in a little tall metal canister! this is genius!
My favorite makeup brushes: 1) brozer brush….what can i say? I LOVE bronzer! I used to work at a tanning salon, and since I dont anymore and my fiance made a pact with me that I am not allowed to tan, and when I travel to warm places I am required to wear spf 15 minimum…..bronzer is my friend <3 i actually prefer it to blush. i hardly ever wear blush. but bronzer i LOVE 2) my eyeshadow blending brush. I love being able to get a great fade/gradient in my eyeshadow colors, making the outer edges darker and having it be gradual and not super drastic. love this brush!
what a crafty lady you are 🙂 never would have thought of that! and your color choice is superb! very clean!
That is adorable. I need to learn how to sew. My mom is a pro at it, but I just haven’t picked it up. I would use this for all the random eye brushes I have scattered around my makeup drawer. Every morning while I’m still half asleep, I spend at least 5 minutes digging around until I find the right one.
I like my bare minerals concealer brush. It makes my well rested go on so nice that it looks like I am rested even though I’ve two very active little boys!
Well pretty much the only brushes I’ve ever owned are from ELF (that really cheap target brand) $1 dolla haaaay! And that’s because i’m 19 and extremely cheap b/c really i have no other option than to look out for the best deals. I’ve always wanted to have a mac brush (my older sister uses them) but i’ll have to wait till i either win the lottery, get her leftovers, or marry a man who is loaded. The most realistic is my sisters hand me downs. Yay siblings!
My favorite brush is my MAC 187 Duo Fibre Brush (had to look it up… I just always call it my “fluffy brush” hehe) because it allows me to control the amount of studio fix foundation I apply and it goes on so evenly.
I can’t live without my foundation brush. It creates the best finish! I also love my kabuki because it creates great coverage. Making a brush holder is such a great idea! It would be perfect for using at college. Katelyn kaphilipp@yahoo.com
Very cute. I love the ribbon. I have 2 brushes I use everyday. I have a MAC angled brush I use to apply color to my eyebrows. The other is just a short brush I use to apply eyeshadow…I think it’s Cover Girl. Lee leeleeberrie@gmail.com
I have some elf brushes too but I love my Sonia Kichuk brushes. I have had them a very long time though and would love to start building up a better collection. My fav brush right now is my foundation brush and my slanted point eye brush. You are such a thinker. I would live that carrier. 🙂
I’m a MAC girl all the way. I love my 187 Duo Fibre Brush and actually have two of them. One for my blush and the other I use with my minerals powder. : )
What a great idea. You’re so clever and crafty! 🙂 I love reading your blog. My fav brush right now is my Bare Escentuals Handy Buki. Jennifer jenny29078@hotmail.com
I love angled brushes! I use 3 different sizes for my eye makeup. They seem to be easier for me to use and very easy to clean. Your brush roll is an amazing idea! Also definitely a great gift idea! ceejay.johnston@yahoo.com
My Clinique contour brush for the eye crease. I love it because not only can it be used in the creases of eyes, but it’s perfect for highlighting under the brow, adding that shimmer spot in the corner of the eye, and even on the top of your cheekbones for some added highlight and shimmer! It’s like 4 brushes in one! LOVE your little makeup roll! thompson.jennifer@live.com
I love what you did that is a great idea. I wish I knew how to use sewing machine I would definitively make this. I just recently started buying good make up brushes and I love my Mac Kabuki brush. I would be interesting in know what kind of brushes you use not sure if you have covered that topic as well.
I love MAC brushes and would love this roll to put them in. Right now I just put them all in my makeup bag and it would be nice to pull them out of the roll and not be all smooshed! Thanks for the chance to win!
We (my teenage daughter and I) love your blog and this idea! A great friend turned me onto your blog, and I am so glad she did. My favorite brush is my kabuki brush. Kellie kellief@sbcglobal.net
Love this! I have no idea what my favorite brush is, but I adore it! I use it everyday for my powder and my blush. It’s so soft I only hope it lasts forever.
Thank you! Just love your blog. I look for it everyday. The two I have to have is the ones from my Bare Minerals and of course my blush brush. All from my lovely daughter. She is helping me out. Kathy kgbanff@gmail.com
I love this idea, I have one for all of my knitting needles!!! This is perfect and so easy!!! My favorite brush is the full coverage kabuki brush. I love bare escentuals brushed – I purchase them off of ebay because they are so much cheaper!!!
My favorite brush I would have to say is my MAC foundation brush. Of course I have plenty of brushes like you just for those times when I just may need them. This is a terrific idea, if I am not the lucky winner I may just have to make one. You should put this on Pinterest!
If I don’t win then i’ll have to ask my mom to help me make this since we are going on a vacation and i need something to put my brushes in:) My favorite brushes usually come out of the Costco Kirkland Holiday sets. I find myself reaching for these brushes very often. I noticed one in one of your pictures:)) Bianka lilcutcheerleader13@yahoo.com
I love my angled eyeshadow brush! It is just the right size and just glides smoothly across my lids. I really could use one of these fab brush roll ups! Nice job! joy4dbacks@yahoo.com Thanks, and I love your blog! God Bless, Joy
So before I even got to the part of the blog where you wanted to know our favorite brushes, I was going to comment to suggest a piece on all of your brushes(or what different types you suggest every girl should have!) I own a few, my favorite being my bare minerals foundation brush bc it seems to put the powder so evenly on my face and its lasted for years. But I noticed in one blog you said to use a eye shadow brush for light shadows only, and I never thought about that but it makes perfect sense not to mix light and darks. So anyway I would love to see something along those lines with all of your brushes!! Now I must go find (or make) a brush roll bc yours looks great!
Such a great idea!! I would have to say my foundation brush is my favorite right now. Soft, easy to clean and gets the job done. Did I mention it’s pink too…even better! 🙂 Danielle Danielle6408@yahoo.com
This is one of those ideas where you say to yourself….why didn’t I think of that???!!! Brilliant idea! My favorite brush is my Mac 217. Thanks so much for the great tips!!!
I love all my brushes! They all have a special duty and without them I feel lost. I also love the idea of taking better care of my brushes which this roll would certainly do!
I can’t live without my MAC brushes, especially my foundation brush! It has taken me forever to collect them all, but I now have two full rolls of them. This idea is genuis! I love to sew, so off to Target I go to buy a placemat haha! Thanks for the great idea!
Nice work!! Way to be crafty! My favorite brush has got to be my bronzer brush. I got it from Clinique and after a lot of use and washes it has held up perfectly!
My favorite brush is really ALL of my Bare Escentuals brushes – lol! It is amazing what you can do with a placement! I’ve made purses and bedside organizers with them! Love your brush roll!
Great idea! I have more than 100 makeup brushes, so it’s hard to narrow it down to one favorite, but if choosing one, I would have to say my IB106 – Italian Badger Angle Brush from Crown. A little tan powder contouring with this brush takes off at least 5 lbs.! I also can’t live without a metal-toothed eyelash comb! sareeves@cox.net
That is so cute! I’ve always despised the too-busy look on most carriers, but that is so easy to do! I like the sable tuft paint brush… I never learned the make-up stuff, but I love art:) breannapgray(at)gmail(dot)com
Great idea! I have over 100 makeup brushes, so it’s hard to choose just one, but I would have to pick the IB106 – Italian Badger Angle Brush from Crown. With a little tan powder and this brush, I can contour 5 lbs from my face! I also can’t live without a metal-toothed eyelash comb! Thanks! sareeves@cox.net
I love my MAC 217 brush because it’s so versatile for eyes, but I am getting ready to buy the Sigma Vegan Slanted and Pointed Kabuki brushes to add to my face collection!
LOVE this idea!!! My favorite is the kabuki brush, and it would be SO nice to put it in a nice place, instead of my makeup bag where it gets tossed around all the time! 🙂
Hi Kate – You are sooooo talented….I check your blog daily!!!! I would have to say my favorite makeup brush us the bare esentials max coverage concealer brush I use with my bisque….it is magical!!! I would love to receive a “gift” from you. My e-mail is cbeck3@hotmail.com Thanks for your terrific blog!
I am a newbie just starting to really get into doing my makeup. I love all your tutorials on hair also (just started enting to do cute things to my hair also) LOL.. So I dont have any brushes yet but plan on starting my collection NOW! Hope I can win!
My fave brush is the Laura Mercier Fan Powder Brush (see here: http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P277509&categoryId=B70). I have actually noticed that my makeup stays on longer just by using this soft, thin and flat, brush! It’s perfect for your makeup travel bag (or a brush roll!) because it’s lightweight and flat… but it gets the job done and really completes your look.
My Favorite is my Bare Minerals Powder Brush!!! It helps to distribute the powder evenly without caking it on!! Currently my brushes are scattered among my makeup bag and it’s a seek & find while getting ready to find the right one. My email is anitafinn@gmail.com
Hey Kate! I love your blog! My favorite makeup brush is the M.A.C dual fibre brush for foundation application. By the looks of your picture, you have a brush like this as well. It definitely gives my foundation a lightweight feel and helps to evenly distribute around the face.
Such a great idea! I am going to pin it on Pinterest! I’m sure you already have. 😉 I love my bare minerals eyeshadow brush…and all my brushes have a great purpose that I don’t want to live without. 🙂 I have several of the same brushes you have. 🙂 I REALLY hope I win!!!! Thank you!
My makeup brush inventory is slim to none, since finging your blog in December I have invested in and use many of the products that you sugest. I really only use like two make-up brushes but I have been wanting more ever since you did the your make up blog. I think that even if i don’t win this one that I will attempt to make my own so that I will just “do it” and invest in new brushes for myself! Thank you for your time!!

My fave brushes are my MAC foundation brush (can’t imagine putting it on any other way), and my Sonia Kashuk eyeshadow brush (from Target)! kconkel@gmail.com
My favorite brush would have to be this eco tools face brush my 3 year old daughter picked out for me for Christmas and my husband let her glue pink rhinestones on it special for her mom! Love the brush and thanks to her the handle is cute too!
This is impressive! I can’t even sew on a button so your sewing skills far surpass mine 🙂 I am a Bare Minerals and Mac brush girl. I recently started applying liquid foundation with a brush and it changed my life!
I actually only have a few make-up brushes, none of which I would consider a favorite. But I am starting to get a bit more “girly” + into wearing make-up more often, so I’m pretty sure I’ll be doing a lot of brush buying in the future. Thanks for the chance to win 🙂
This may sound strange, but I just started using eyeshadow brushes last year when I started learning more detailed eyeshadow techniques for my wedding, and I purchased Target’s brand of eyeshadow brushes (Up and Up) and I think they work great. Maybe it’s just my novice talking 🙂 P.S. – I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog – even though I’m not creative like you with your hair and makeup ideas, you really inspire me to try new things! I have Pinterest to thank for introducing your blog to me! Rebecca rebsmusic@gmail.com
Love this! Great gift idea! I have my brushes in a cute clear glass vase with beads in it, but this would be perfect for travel. My dave brush is my MAC foundation brush, leaves a flawless finish! Make sure to clean your brushes ladies! If you notice breakouts for no reason, it may be your brushes! A little bit of baby shampoo works, no need for any fancy cleaners. Wash it till the water runs clear and let air dry. I do this once per week before I go to bed. 🙂 -tricia Yogitricia@gmail.com

Im not much of a makeup person simply b/c I haven’t had the time to explore it. But what i do love is eyes! I love my eye shadow detail brushes and smudge brushes. So this would be a great thing to get me organized with what little makeup stuff I have! and have room for more! 🙂 hpowers1129@gmail.com
And yet another great tute!…I would have to say my favorite make-up brush is my Bare Escentuals concealer brush! As a working mom of two active little boys, I always need the superb dark circle under eye coverage 😉
My Aveda angle brush, I also have a Sonia Kashuk one as well. They were perfect for filling my eyebrows, smudging eyeliner, and applying eyeshadow as eyeliner to my lower lid.
My favorite brush is my Everyday Minerals foundation brush. It is soft and works well and easy to clean. It has a wooden handle that feels good and is sturdy. The e-mail associated with my blogger account is valid.
What a neat idea. My favorite brush is my Blush Brush. The style of brush you use, along with the colors you choose, can really make your cheek bones pop.
I LOVE my entire set of make up brushes that I received as a graduation present! They are Bobby Brown brushes and my favorite one would have to be my concealing brush. It is so lightweight and doesn’t clump my concealing make up, making my zits way less noticeable! LOVE them, just need a brush roll for them! 🙂
I lovvvee this makeup brush roll up…so cute!! MY favorite makeup brush is the heavenly blush brush from bare minerals. I LOVE all their brushes and think they are all worth getting!!! Kabuki brush is also my favorite it gives you the more coverage!
I love my Mac large blush brush. An investment for sure, but I have had mine for years and it’s my favorite! My email is meliss.buck@gmail.com. Have a great day!
I love my Mirabella details brush. It holds the makeup so well and allows me to draw the perfect line just above my eyeliner. My next favorite would be the Mirabella crease brush. It helps those of us who are makeup challenged. I will begin filling the roll with my concealer brush.
I have Sonja Kashuck brushes and Bare Essentials brushes-I think my favorite one is my B.E. face brush-so easy to get my foundation on my face in the mornings!
Wow…I am amazed at your talent…God has definantly given you a talent and is using you to spread his word through your great blog. Thank you for sharing this, I would LOVE it so much as I have small counter space and this would work perfect. My favorite brush is the Mary Kay Mineral Foundation brush. Thank you for the opportunity to win this!!
I love this idea! I can’t find decent brushes that I actually love, but I would love to have a blush brush to fill the brush roll. I’m buying myself new sephora make up and brushes for my upcoming birthday! I absolutely love your blog, you have taught me so many useful tips! Thank you!
What a cute idea, and it matches the colors in my bathroom perfectly! My favorite brush would have to be my Bare Escentuals kabuki brush. I actually have two of them, one for foundation and one for bronzer. This would be perfect to organize all my brushes in!
Kate what a fabulous idea! I absolutely love my slanted contour eyeshadow brush by Sephora. It took me a long time to figure out that whole eye make-up thing and this brush makes things so much easier!
Hi Kate – You are so creative and talented.. I love this idea! I absolutely love my Sephora powder and blush brushes because they are ultra soft and the bristles never fall out. I do have a few Sonia Kashuk for Target brow and lip brushes that are also very good quality but for less money.
I’ve been looking for a sewing machine actually- can you recommend a particular one?
What a great idea!! I have Mary Kay brushes and I really like them all but I think my new favorite is the one that is used for the cream eye shadows. I have funny chubby fingers and it just makes it go on much smoother.
I am a HUGE fan of studio gear brushes… I love my foundation brush- it has to be my favorite!!! I also love my blush brush!!! They really are fantastic brushes.
I recommend my brushes from The Body Shop to EVERYONE, ALL THE TIME! They are so soft and so easy to clean. Face and body brush and slanted eye brush are a must! traceyjadefish@gmail.com
This is great idea! I can’t tell u how many times my brushes use to end up all over the house! I just had a baby this past summer and have fallen out of my daily makeup routine and am dying for an excuse to get back into it! The only brush I have and use now is my bronzer brush that’s about all the make up I had time for! But winning this I will def. Find the time, this idea is so cute and handy for us moms on the go! Thanks so much for this awesome blog! Katrina Kat818@live.com
I got my brushes as a gift from Target (glorious of all places) a few years ago and I love them! I have a few cheap-o ones from the elf section of Target that I can’t seem to stop buying…
I am desperate for a makeup brush solution and this is just what I need! I collect brushes so it is hard to pick a favorite, but I think it has to be my big fluffy Bare Escentuals flawless application face brush. It is so soft and provides great coverage. Thanks so much for your amazing blog! I’ve learned so many great tips and tricks!
OMG I love this!!! I wish I had the skills to make something like this because I’m in desperate need of one! All my brushes are Bobbi Brown and my fave is the foundation brush… love it! Thanks for hosting such an awesome giveaway! 🙂
I recently purchased a Bare Minerals Starter Kit and received three brushes in it! I absolutely love how soft they are 🙂 and I look forward to buying more!
I love the bare escentuals brushes, my favorite of which is the heavenly liner brush (it hasn’t failed me yet)! Thanks for the opportunity! Nicole coleedupont(at)gmail(dot)com
Very cool idea! U are so crafty… Love and kinda obsessed with Ur blog! If I won I would fill the makeup roll with my brand new bamboo Eco tool blush brush which is super soft! Thanks for posting this Ur awesome!
I love eye shadow brushes! 🙂 this is a great idea! If I don’t win one, I’m definitely going to try to make one for my sister … she would LOVE it! 🙂 sodoeshe@gmail.com
My favorite brush is my Mary Kay angled eye liner brush. I absolutely ADORE this brush because it is so soft but allows for the perfect eyeliner application every time!
I love my full coverage brush from bare minerals because I’m not a big makeup person so that brush fully covers my face with as little powder as possible! I also have no place to put my brushes so they sit on my dresser 🙁 My email is kgilmartin6@gmail.com
I love all your great ideas, suggestions, and insights into hair, makeup, and life 🙂 I would love to wrap-up all my brushes in your cute design. Pick me!! 🙂 ~Janelle Keller janellenicolekeller@yahoo.com
I love my eye shadow and my blush brush from Sonia Kashuk. I’m new to your blog and it has quickly become my favorite blog. I have to check it everyday!!! Thanks for all the great hairstyle ideas, I LOVE them.
It’s a tie between my big floofy blush brush and my small-medium eye shadow brush. I use them multiple times each day (have to shower 2-3x everyday at work) and I need something that I can put them in to protect them in my purse since I’m always taking them back and forth with me. Looks great!
My favorite brush is the Bare Escentuals “heavenly face” brush. I use it along with all my other Bare Escentuals products. Thanks for your insights into make-up and hair. I love every one of them. I’m so glad I found your site!!!
I actually LOVE the brushes that come with my Bare Escentuals make up. So soft and apply the makeup with ease. PS Love the make up bag wrap tutorial. I’m NOT crafty but may attempt this! Very cute! Email: kmiller720.km@gmail.com
Great project! And it looks like it would coordinate nicely with my DIY vanity! 😉 My favorite brush (of many! My friends say I’m a makeup hoarder!) Would probably be my slanted eyeshadow brush from sephora. I use it to fill in my brows for a quick, dramatic difference. Arielle arielle_thompson@hotmail.com
I love my bare essentials brushes, most specifically the concealer brush because it doesnt make your face look cakey! Would definitely love a brush roll up as I plan to invest in some sigma brushes!
This is so cute! I love my Bare Minerals concealer brush and my eye crease brush. I am working on my smoky eye technique:) I wish I could sew…not even sure i could sew a button on! drgirlie@comcast.net
Great idea!! If only I could sew!! My favorite brush is my ELF smudge brush. Its great for blending eyeliner to make the smokey eye look. -Shannon shannon_joy10@hotmail.com
I am not a sewer either so this tutorial ROCKS! I love all my Bare Escentuals brushes, however, I scored a Body Buki brush on QVC once and I love it in the summer for an all over shimmer! AND I love my smaller Buki brushes, too, however, I have an eyeshadow brush that I ADORE! It’s a simple brush on one side and a contour sweeper on the other side. Cannot live without it. Shannonfabulous@gmail.com Thanks for the opportunity to possibly NOT make a brush holder! LOL!!!
First of all..I love your blog. I recently discovered it and my hair thanks you for it :o) On to the post about the makeup brush… I would have to say my favorite brush is my large eyeshadow brush because I use it most frequently and its a nice size! Email address: alexispeterson01@gmail.com
Funny story…I was looking online earlier today for the PERFECT brush bag and couldn’t find ANYTHING. I gave up my search all together then hours later just browsing everthing on Pintrest I ran across this! An aswer to the Brush Bag Prayer!
My favorite brush is my crease brush! It makes adding the darker colors to the crease SO easy and whether I’m doing a more natural look or a smokey eye it turns out perfect everytime! I give the credit to my brush and not to me.
My favorite brush is my eyeshadow brush! It makes putting on eyeshadow so much easier and I love the way it blends my colors together with ease! The makeup brush roll is so cute and I would definitely have fun filling it with more brushes! 🙂
My sister in Christ, First, I just want to say how stinkin’ cute are you, your sister and mom! I am the middle sister of three girls….there’s nothing like some sister fun. Sadley I do not have a favorite brush to share. I however need to invest in a eyeshadow brush badly! =) sistwo@bellsouth.net
I wasn’t much of an eye shadow brush person till recently (I used the sponge applicators before) but now I love it and need to invest in better brushes. Having a brush roll to hold them would be fantastic!
I love my bare minerals brushes. The Flawless Application Face Brush is the perfect brush and applies the foundation so well. Love it! Thanks for the giveaway and good luck everyone! Thanks for showing us how you made it so those who really want one can make their own if they don’t win.
I love this idea!! My favorite brushes are my eye shadow and eyeliner brushes. They are the ones I couldn’t live without, although I don’t want to live without any of them 🙂 my email is caselynn85@gmail.com
This is such a cute idea! I happen to be one of those people that does not own any make up brushes….BUT I just bought a set of 13 brushes from The Brush Company online the other day that I’m waiting to come in. The brush roll would be a great thing to have for those new brushes. 🙂
My favorite brush is my Mary Kay eyeshadow brush. A close second is my Eco tools kabuki. I love brushes that are soft and pick up and hold onto color well. I’d love to have your cute little roll-up bag to keep mine in!
Have to go with my bare minerals brushes. Current they take up space in my makeup bag. I definitely could use a cleaner solution. bheckmanstoddard@gmail.com
So cute!!! I wish I even knew how to turn on a sewing machine. haha. All time FAV makeup brush is the Sigma E25 eye shadow brush. It is the PERFECT crease blending brush!!
I love this idea! I am just starting to accumulate make-up brushes (other than the ones that come with the eyeshadows, etc. 😉 I do love my powder/foundation brush. I don’t know what brand it is though.
I love your blog! I am a first grade teacher, and stumbled across it a few weeks ago! I literally just left Sally’s because I wanted to get a Hot Tools curling iron! My favorite brushes are from Sephora. My fave is the “Sephora Collection Pro Angle Liner Brush.” I use it with black eye shadow for my lower eyeliner. I love it!
This looks like the best brush roll. I have a few bare minerals brushes but there are some on my list I want but honestly didn’t have a place to store them that I likes so this would be perfect! I like the concealer brush, the eyeshadow brushes, the eyeliner brush, the eyebrow brush….. Thanks for a change to win! Katherine jnklee724@gmail.com
This roll up case it so awesome!! If I win I plan to put my new Bobbi Brown makeup brushes in it. I only have a eyeliner and eyeshadow brush, but a girl has to start somewhere. I just started using makeup brushes this week and have not purchased a roll-up kit.
This is such a cute idea!! My favorite brushes are from bare minerals — I would have to say the handy buki. I really enjoy your blog and all your helpful tips1 my email address is kcochran2@gmail.com
I currently am using make up brushes from Merle Norman. There #2 Shadow brush is the best thing ever! I don’t know what I would do without it. I also have been wanting to buy a fan brush for blush!
I recently spent the money and purchased the professional brush set from Sigma and I am seriously in love! I cannot pick just one because they are all so amazing! Why did I not buy them sooner?
This is adorable. To be honest, I don’t have many makeup brushes but I really like my blush brush that I use. I have to remind myself not to use it for everything.
Oh wow! Well, I have two.. yes only two brushes…one is for my powder on my face and the other is for my eye shadow..i like this one the best, the other one probably needs to be replaced soon! By reading the comments I think I need to invest in a few more! duggank09@yahoo.com
Sooo cute and practical! My favorite brushes are my large Bare Essentials Kabuki and Bare Essentials blending brush, but I have lots of others and I sure could use a new brush roll for when I travel!
I hardly ever wear makeup. I could totally use this as my motivation for getting back into wearing makeup more often. I have a few nice Mary Kay brushes.
Or I could give this to my “twinnie” & bff Eileen since I know she’d love something like this. Or I could make her one!
I love the make up brush holder you made- so clever! I love Bobbi Brown make up brushes- have two favorites- the feather brush for foundation- goes on flawlessly- and the eyeliner brush- makes putting on liquid eyeliner so easy! Thanks! Jennifer jotvos@comcast.net
I love a good contour brush! I must confess I have had the best luck with the cheapy elf brushes, maybe it is because I store them so poorly 😉 hollyewc@aol.com
Hi Kate! My absolute favorite is my MAC skinny gel liner brush. I’ve recently started doing a cat eye on my top lid for everyday…it’s super fun 🙂 I could definitely use the brush holder since I always throw my brush back into my makeup bag and black gel liner ges everywhere!!! Thanks! Kate Steffakathleen@gmail.com
i have a small, flat concealer brush that came with my Bare Minerals kit. i have learned that it is simply invaluable!! i’d be completely lost without it, now that i know it’s wonders.
I personally don’t have a favorite brush but would love to find one to fill that space. My makeup routine is very simple and quick but I’m looking for ways to glam it up, especially my eyes.
My favourite brush has to be my overall brush – it’s supposed to be a powder brush but when held (and cleaned!) the right way, you can use it for powder, blush, bronzer and contouring, all by holding the bristles in a different way. Even though I have all those brushes separately (hence the need for a brush roll bigger then my current!) my powder brush would definitely be a deserted island essential due to it’s versatility!
Great idea! These things are normally very expensive and this such an easy and inexpensive DIY! I absolutely love my Cargo Magic Brush – its good for everything, one of the best multi-use make-up brushes 🙂
I love my Mac angled eye brush that I use to outline the edge of my eyes with a darker shadow. I also use the same brush for my brows. Anneitta anneittab@yahoo.com
I love my kabuki brush because of how well it applies my mineral foundation! It is something that I have been using since high school. It’s so wonderful!
What a good idea!!! I don’t think I have the craftiness to come up with something like that 😉 My favorite brushes are eco tools – with my favorite one being my kabuki! SimplyKristi426@gmail.com
I LOVE this idea!!! I’ve been using Bare Minerals FOREVER…..so of course I love all their makeup brushes!! I think I have almost all of them!!! This would be the perfect thing for me to win for my brushes!! 🙂
Wow! How clever of you – what a great idea. I love how neat and organized my brushes will be with a holder like that. I have to say I love using a foundation brush now to apply my make-up instead of using my fingers or a sponge as I had done in the past. My brushes are my makeups’ best friends 😉 Jennie at jghear@hotmail.com
There are just so many brushes that I can’t seem to figure out what to do with! The two I mainly use are for blush and my eyes. Those are ok, but the fun one, the one I wish I knew what to do with is the fan brush. What do you do with that?!!!
It’s such a great idea! I have to have one! 🙂 I put all my brushes in a small but still tall vase so I always have difficulty to reach for the smaller brushes. The brush I prefer is my bronzer brush. Thanks for all the inspiration! I totally love your blog. cath.ouimet@gmail.com
How cute! I’m sure I could make sewing a straight line difficult though.. ha anyways I use pretty standard brushes but my favorite is my angled brushes! =)
My can’t live without brush is my Sephora eye shadow brush. I couldn’t find it for 2 days & had to resort to using another one & I about cried! sarah.helfinstine@gmail.com
I love my Mary Kay blush brush!! This was such a wonderful idea!! I just sild my sewing machine because I was sooo bad at sewing, I could really use a brush holder. :). Taraledford@gmail.com
I love the bare mineral brushes. My favorite one is the full body coverage one. I would love to win this as it would help me become a tad more organized =) Love your blog by the way I have perfected curling my hair from watching you. Email is jenifer.gottschalk@gmail.com
You are so creative! Love it. Wish I had a sewing machine too. My favorite is brush my kabuki by bare minerals. I think you should give it to me because I use a plastic zip lock bag to hold y brushes! : /
I love all my bare mineral brushes they are my favorite!! I love this roll up so cute! I love my handy buki brush and my full coverage brush my email is brandimollenhauer@yahoo.com
Love this idea! Such a great idea for birthday/Christmas gifts too 🙂 My fav brush is a higlighting brush…which I do not own…but would like to. A fav that I own is my blending brush. By the way, I rocked my first “Small Things Hair” (as I call it) to a party on Friday- to many rave reviews from my girlfriends. Thanks for helping this Mom of three who barely has time to shower feel not so “frumpy” 🙂 Carly
My fav brush is actually a metal eyelash comb. I finally found a long-handled one; I’ve been using the Japonais folding comb/brush. Thanks so much for doing this for us! 🙂
My favorite brush is a double ended brush that I got from Wal-Mart. I’m not sure of the brand but one end is fluffy and the other end is a pencil brush. Perfect for a smokey eye! Megan mmzbaker@yahoo.com
Holy brushes batman…I have an elcheapo dual ended brush from Avon with one small end for liner and the other is an angled brush I use for highlighting or a dab of sparkle. I think it was $0.99 with purchase last year. It’s the bread to my BUTTER! Mandi Moore (yes that is my real name)mmoore@acsd1.org
I love this!! my favorite brush is the MAC angled brow brush. I have 3 of them! it’s stiff and great for brow powder and powdered liner, but soft enough for contour.
I love my concealer brush…it hides everything! And I love this idea. I have been trying to find a way to store my brushes without just throwing them in a drawer or leaving them on a shelf to get dusty. This is perfect! mandacarlene@hotmail.com
For Christmas this year, I bought mysef the Elf professional kit and I love it, but my favorite brush is a mutt! I’ve had it forever, probably since junior high. I don’t even know what line it came from! It’s just a big huge fluffy brush and I use it for powder…blush…and bronzer. I mean, I use it on a daily basis and it’s still soft and never sheds, even after YEARS of use.
I too love my Bare Minerals brushes! My most favorite would probably be the kabuki brush…but the ultimate concealer runs a close second! Jessica Cromer.Jessica@gmail.com
How do you clean your makeup brushes? I have some that are years old but still in good shape. I don’t know if I should trash them or try to clean them. I don’t need the brush bag myself, but it was a great tutorial! Leslie Smith grubbsmith@yahoo.com
I love my contour eyeshadow brush from cvs. It’s not my most expensive brush but it really made a difference in how I do my shadow. If I don’t win I am def making one of these! Awesome idea. Love your blog! Been a follower for a few months now! Jess Jdeal19(at)live(dot)com
I love my make up brushes! You want me to choose only one???? hmm…probably my blush brush (it’s like a tall skinny kabuki= not sure the exact name). Love it!! jennifer(dot)goode22(at)gmail(dot)com
My favorite is the Bare Escentuals Full Coverage Kabuki Brush! All of my brushes are a mess right now, so having somewhere nice and neat to store them would be wonderful!
I think this is so clever! My absolute favorite brush is my eyeshadow brush that my mom got me from Sephora! It was the greatest “just because” present because I use it daily! 🙂 I love that you made your own- if I could sew I probably would make one too- I have trouble finding patterns and prints I can’t live without in almost any bag– my husband calls it being picky! Haha! Luel.love@yahoo.com
I sell Avon so naturally I use our brushes but do have a couple of favs…a full powder brush and eye shadow brush, are my favs. Would love a roll wrap to keep them all in.
I love my Handy Buki Brush from Bare Escentuals! It is perfect for applying my Bare Escentuals Light Foundation! I also love this idea and I may just have to make some of these for family this year for Xmas.. I better start on them soon so that I don’t wait till the last minute and then not have time, like I typically do! I love you blog! mom2pooka@gmail.com
A while back I splurged on a set of MAC makeup brushes and I am so glad I did. To me, the girl who gets blotchy at the touch of nearly anything, they make all the difference in the world. The foundation blush is my favorite, it helps to keep coverage even and smooth! This bag would be perfect for my many brushes which currently sit in a mason jar on my vanity and travel in a zip loc bag (GASP!).
Hi! My favorite brush is the eyeliner brush made by Bella Pierre. Have you ever heard of that makeup? It’s amazing! Definitely check it out. I only know you through your blog but I think you’d love it! I also have to say your sewing skills are pretty impressive. I would love this because I can’t sew, not even a button. My husband has to do that for me 😉 my email address is:
I love my Bobbi Brown brushes! All of them 🙂 But especially love Kabuki brushes of any brand, they are so great and feel so good on your skin 🙂 I love this Brush Roll, great job! Ellen Ludwick ej.ludwick@gmail.com
I love my double ended eyeshadow brushes! What a great idea and it turned out perfectly! Thanks for all the great tutorials you post, I’ve had a great time trying out new styles and passing the info on to my friends! Nikki – nimbarker@gmail.com
I love my eyeshadow brush.. I am always playing with my eyeshadow trying new colors and styles. I would love to win a bush roll, as mine are stored in a make up bag which is usefull but not ideal. My email is carissak87@gmail.com.
First of all, your blog and instructions have changed my morning routine for the better – and thank you for that! I have some fabulous hair now! My fave makeup brush(out of the 187 or so I have) is a ‘spouncer’ type from Sephora that I use for my Bare Escentuals. Helps cover up the reality that is the skin of my mid thirties (ie pimples and wrinkles oh my!) Michelle m_vogelman@hotmail.com
I am awful with make brush names but I love this blush brush that has the flat top. I guess it is used for highlighting your cheeks…. Anyway I am a newbie to it and have become a big fan fast! Lyndsay
I am a big fan of my MAC foundation brush. I would never go back to the sponges or fingers (YUCK)! I would love to have this roll so my other brushes aren’t just thrown in my makeup bag!!
What a cute idea! My fave brush right now is the Mark kabuki brush that I got through your sister. 🙂 Thanks for the great giveaway! talkinghands@comcast.net
I have some make up brushes from Sephora, I don’t know what the brand is, but I love them! I use my foundation brush the most! I’d love to have a make up brush roll to put all my brushes in to organize them since they’re just sitting a drawer in my bathroom. I love your blog!! You have such great ideas!!! 🙂
My favorite is my eco tools face brush my 3 year old daughter picked out for me for Christmas. What’s so great is she glued rhinestones on it so now its adorable too!
love it! I need some brushes like yours..it’s nice that they tell you what to use them for. I need a little extra guidance when it comes to using my brushes for the right things! 🙂 I look forward to reading your blog daily!
My favorite brush right now is the Bare Escentuals face and eye brush. The eye part is wonderful for blending. I also just got a crease blending eye brush from Ulta that i’m quite partial to also. Great job on the site!
LOVE this idea!! wish I had a sewing machine!!! I have been loving my tight angled brush to line my lower lashes! Watching your daily makeup tutorial changed my daily routine!!! I even use the espresso since it was already my favorite color!! I use mushroom from mac as the highlight!! LOVE!!!
I am just starting to buy make up brushes so most of mine are just cheap. I do want to order some good ones and I have read through your posts on brushes, so soon I will need a brush roll. Thanks you have a great blog. tl_63miller@yahoo.com
I don’t have a lot of brushes but my favorite is my full coverage brush from bare minerals. If I won this makeup brush roll I would got buy more brushes to fill it up 🙂 Ashly akidd21@msn.com
I am planning on buying a brand new set of brushes very soon, so this would be perfect to keep them pretty (unlike my old ones which I just tossed in my makeup bag).
You look pretty skilled in the sewing department if you ask me because that roll is awesome! I have an eyeliner brush from Mark that I love – it draws a powder eyeliner line like nobody’s business and I don’t know how I lived without it! andrea_bloomfield@yahoo.com
I LOVE LOVE my blush brush. When I get to put on my blush I get so happy because I just feel like blush add so much glow and warmth to your face. So my blush brush would be the first to fill it. I do also love my mascara….but you asked about brushes.
Hi 🙂 My favorite brush would have to be my blush brush! It is Mary Kay and it works wonders! I never have to worry about any bristles coming out on my face! I love it! lauraashworth12@hotmail.com
I loooove love love my Essence of Beauty brushes. I have almost all of the brushes in the line. The are affordable and work just as good as any MAC brush would work!!
I’m a bit lost, did you not include one of the steps? You mentioned placing pins for each brush space and they you mentioned sewing one straight line and they you are done?
Hi! Just love your blog and posts 🙂 My favorite brush is the Blush Brush from Mary Kay. It’s great to use, super fluffy and soft, and easy to clean! Hope you have a GREAT day!
I don’t own any name brand brushes but my favorite brush is the blush brush! I think it’s because that is my favorite cosmetic product 🙂 Thanks for doing this! steph 🙂 ssecada@gmail.com
I own brushes…well not sure if what I own is brushes or not. 🙂 I only have the little brushes that come with the eyeshadow compact it self, or blush compact etc… I use the sponge thingys to apply my foundation. I would like to try out the foundation brush. So if I had a makeup brush holder…i would probably try out several more brushes to better apply my makeup. 🙂 Love your blog too! Amber brandonandamber@comcast.net
Excellent idea…very creative use of a clearance item, too!
My fav makeup brush is my blusher brush. I’m on the hunt for a new concealer brush and foundation brush, too, since the ones I have are on their last leg. Guess I’ll need to spend a little more this time on them and get better quality!
I am make-up brush challenged!! I only use 2. My favorite, which I wish I could use is the fan brush. No idea what that’s for. Your make-up roll is super cute!
OMG do you really have over 700 comments!!!! Kate, you blog is awesome! I am excited to check it daily. I have all my coworkers hooked. I am a dermatologist so I can usually relate to a lot of your posts. I love all my make-up brushes. I guess the ones I use most are my eyelid brushes. I don’t know where I would be with out them:) I guess my blush and bronzer thick brushes are also a must. I love them all and I love your brush roll, Guinness.
I have had my favorite brush for about 20 years. I got it in high school in one of those kits you get for xmas from an aunt or something! It’s a cheapie but it’s stubby, compact bristles are perfect for blending my eyeshadow in the crease.
I wouldn’t know how to sew to save my life! So, yes, I would love to fill this beautiful little placemat/makeup holder up with all my brushes. And…my new favorite brush? My flat eyeliner brush. (:
My all time favorite brush is the Benefit Foundation brush. The bristles are soft and wide. It allows me to easily apply and blend my make-up. Thanks for having the give away! Sandy sandyrhoads@yahoo.com
I really haven’t found a MAC make-up brush I won’t use. I still have some in the package that I need to get out and use! My email is talana99@hotmail.com
What a great idea! One of my treats to myself this year is to continue to invest in some new makeup brushes, but for now my favorite is my big ole’ Sonia Kashuk bronzer brush.
Thanks for such a great blog, I love checking in each day to see what’s new!
Love this idea!!! I’m making one or two or seventeen as soon as I figure this sewing machine out. Or maybe I’ll win the extra you made and then I can just con my mom into making one for some of my friends 🙂
As for my favorite makeup brush, that’s a no-brainer, I LOVE my blush brush. I’m more obsessed with the actual blush then the brush, but the brush gets it on my face so I can’t exactly have one without the other 😉

My favorite brush is the Sonia Kashuk large blending brush with the swoopy black handle. I love her brushes! I really need a brush roll so I hope I get this! If not I’ll definitely be using your idea and making one of my own. Thanks! aprila0215@gmail.com
hey kate 🙂 awesome idea 🙂 if i dont win i might just make my own. I love love love the bare minerals eye shadow brush i have! its awesome 🙂 jennifercwhitt@gmail.com! love the blog
I am in desperate need of something to hold all of my makeup brushes! Right now I am currently using a small turquoise vase that an edible arrangements fruit tree came in (yes i know what your thinking) But if I get this brush roll I would be most excited about putting my eye shadow brushes in it!! Because there are so many!
So exciting! I have tons of brushes but only travel with the few essentials I can fit in my makeup bag. I think out of those my double ended eye brush would definitely make the cut. Very exciting!
Love it and want it! Even if I don’t win yours, I will be looking for one! My favorite brush is my blush brush. It has lasted forever and I can’t even remember who made it…I know it was from a mineral makeup line. I have seriously had it at least 12 years! But I do take care of my brushes, especially the ones I spend a little extra on. Thanks, Tammy sonotammy@gmail.com
I love my Estée Lauder foundation brush, but I like my Mac brushes too! I would love to win this roll up. I currently have mine in a pencil cup (I mean…Really? Come on…).
Hey, I have never worn much make-up so I don’t have any brushes… BUT I am planning to get married in about a year and have already started looking into various make-up for engagement/wedding/honeymoon pictures and would LOVE this for the new make-up 🙂
So cute and clever!! I’m thinking we’d get along great;) I do hair, love your blog, and if I don’t win your fab brush roll, will try to make one myself! OH, and I love all my MAC brushes and have some great Mally brushes as well. traciefaler@yahoo.com
Oh, my how cute! I own a small compact brush set purchased at wal-mart. (I just ask for a good set of brushes for my birthday!) No clue what to actually buy…eekk, I know, I must get with it! I use my eye makeup brushes the most. Came across your blog by Pinterest, love it!! Kinsie kinsie_shea@yahoo.com
This is such a great idea! I just ordered several brushes from everyday minerals. I hope I like them! I bet you are getting a ton of pageviews on this post. I pinned it on pinterest and it is going crazy! Ashley ashleydunn2003(at)yahoo(dot)com

This is Awesome! I love my brushes from perscriptives. Its my makeup brand but they went out of business so I am trying to make them last for as long as i can!
I love this idea! I just bought a sewing machine. I’ll be running out to buy a placement soon! My favorite brushes are from bare minerals. I love the blush brush and concealer brush! Hkhan0425@yahoo.com
My favorite brush is my blush brush from Sephora. My goal is to use & master a foundation brush. I love your creative brush holder. Well done! Diane. richards728@comcast.net
I love your blog and the makeup brush roll bag! My favorite brushes are BareMinerals concealer brush and handy buki brush. Both give great coverage! The concealer brush is especially great with well rested by BareMinerals. That stuff is a miracle worker in the mornings! I am also a hairstylist and love your how to hairstyles! My clients have shown me some of your pictures and thought I would check out your blog. It’s great that you are showing so many people easy ways to fix their hair, wear cute outfits and diy crafty ideas!
I absolutely LOVE my ecotools blush brush…it’s inexpensive and works great! Love your blog-it inspires me to more crafty and I’ve gotten so many compliments everytime I try one of your hairstyles!
My must have brush is the soft focus eyeshadow brush from BareEscentuals. I love how it applies my shadows to my crease, inner and outer eye areas! It also blends multiple colors together well on the eye.
My favorite makeup brush is my big clinique powder brush. I’ve had it for years and I love it. Even if I don’t win, I’m going to make one of these. Maybe more so I can give them as gifts. Thanks Kate.
my favorite brush would definitely be the round top synthetic kabuki brush! I also have the angled synthetic brush but I use the round top to apply my foundation and it works wonders! your makeup roll is so cute, I don’t sew at all so if I tried… it would be a disaster =( I’ll hear from you through my email at b.quachh@gmail.com soon… right???? hehe
Awesome. I have been trying to figure out what to put my makeup brushes in so they are not scattered. (My bobby pins stand in a small baby food jar…perfect!). I don’t have a sewing machine so let’s hope random.org picks ME! 😉 I love my Bare Minerals max coverage concealer brush but also the BE kabuki brush and angled eyeshadow/liner brush. Hard to pick a fave! By the way, I LOVE the key on your giveaway roll. I am wanting a key necklace so bad! trrcabbey(at)gmail(dot)com
Honestly, I’m am shocked how many brushes you have! I just wish I understood what they were all for because I’m sure they are amazing! Guess I need to read your blogs about makeup more often 🙂 I have 5 brushes and my favorite is probably my blush brush! I guess it’s because I can’t live without blush….it totally changes what I look like, can’t live without it!
I have to say I can’t believe how many brushes you have! I wish I knew what they were all for because I’m sure they are amazing! I only have 5 brushes and my favorite has to be my blush brush because I can’t live without blush! It totally changes my look!
I am so impressed that you made up your own pattern! I could never! I have to follow instructions exactly…luckily we have people like you who can do stuff like this!
Such a creative idea! Well let’s see… My favorite brush has to be Sonia Kashuk’s powder brush. It’s soft and easy on the skin, allows full coverage, and it’s been the faithful brush in my bag for some years now. And just for kicks, I’ll add that my other favorite brush next to that is the Bare Escentuals concealer brush. Perfect for extra coverage on those needed areas!
My absolute favorite brush is the MAC 193 angled foundation brush. Without this little beauty, I would die. I get complete all-over coverage with a very naturally smooth look, and the angle is perfect for getting around the eyes and mouth. Definitely worth every penny!
My fave is bare minerals full tapered blush and eye. I use the blush end for my bare minerals powder and the eye end to dab a little under my eyes! Pjkerr0702@aol.com
Love my all natural kabuki brush for my mineral powder used for my all over finishing look…its soft and with the mineral powder I feel as though I’m not wearing any make-up….I would go into my eye brushes by sephora, but that would be a novel on its own…love the brush roll…great idea!!

My favorite brush is my Powder brush by Crown Makeup Brushes. I <3 <3 <3 all of their tools. It is so fluffy an nice. I will fill my makeup brush roll with that brush first.
Love the brush bag. At the time i haven’t used brushes, didn’t really know how to until I seen your tutorial. WOW how easy is that, you have motivated me and I wonder how could I have used the little sponges for so long. What brushes would you recommend for a starter? Agatha guyasyl@mindspring.com
What a cute idea! My favorite brushes are anything by Bare Escentuals, but I especially love the Feather Light brush. I use it to apply blush. It gives me just the right amount!
I really love the Bare Minerals eye brushes I have collected them with various boxed set but my favorite is the crease brush. It gives me the best angle to get that smokey eye look. Right now I have no organization for my brushes. I love what you made!!
Such a great idea! I’d love to win this as I don’t have a sewing machine and would love a brush holder! My favorite brush is my benefit foundation brush. my email is esthers_mom@yahoo.com
I just found your blog and LOVE IT! I tried several of your hair tutorials and discovered I need new products! On my way to cuter hair and make up! 🙂 My favorite brushes are my eye shadow and blush brush. Thanks!!
While I cannot afford the MAC brushes I so very much long for one day…I would use the brushes which get me through my make up with every so thrifty paintbrush set I use for make-up (a trick a friend taught me who was a makeup artist for MAC!!)
LOVE THIS!!! My favorite brushes would be from MAC. I have almost everyone that they sell! Without a good brush, makeup is nothing! smithlindsay94@gmail.com
Hi Kate – This is a wonderful idea!! I love my blush and powder brushes from Sephora – they are high quality, very soft and the bristles don’t fall out when you wash them.
I was thinking about purchasing a sewing machine .. do you recommend any one in particular? THANK YOU!! Jodi Peroutka jperoutka@pvlearners.net

My brushes from ELF would look beautiful in this bag! Favorite brush is from eye crease brush, it’s perfect and I use it almost everyday! rmm2011@live.com
I love my kabuki brush from Bare Escentuals! it helps me make sure all my make up is blended not only on my face but on my neck as well, which seems to be a problem area from most women. my email is: maleliefeld@gmail.com
I love this! So cute and practical! 🙂 I’d love one! I’m new to your blog but am a little obsessed and am getting my hair cut today and using some of your pics and tips! 🙂 timetoshine (@) gmail (.) com
I honestly don’t know what all of the different brushes are called, but I can’t live without the one I use to apply translucent powder. I would love to win this brush holder! It would give me a reason to learn about all of those brushes!
I got a set of Costco’s Kirkland brand makeup brushes for Christmas last year and I LOVE the big blush brush! It SO soft! I love the idea of making a brush roll instead of buying one! So creative!:)
I love my brush that is a general shadow depositor. I use it every day. Not sure if it has a real name. I would love to learn more about different brushes since I know htey make make-up application easier. cmcrandell@gmail.com
My favorite brush is my kirkland powder brush. It’s so soft and soothing! But if I had a sweet brush roll like this I wouldn’t use it for my makeup brushes: I just started taking a painting class and would rock my brush roll in class!
I love using a lip brush! I think you have more control on the depth of color more than when you just apply lipstick directly to your lips. Thanks for all your great tips! Love the brush case! kimnbell@yahoo.com
My favorite is a very thin, angled eyeshadow brush that I can use to put a thin layer right at my eyelash line. I have a lot of trouble putting eye-liner on, and this one does the trick! Love the brush roll…and all your other projects!
I don’t know if my post went through or not, I was having technical difficulties. I love this DIY project. Wish I could find the time to make one (maybe I won’t have to if I win). I love, love, love my foundation brush by Estee Lauder.
I love my Trish McEvoy eye shadow brushes…cannot choose one. They are so soft and do not fall apart. Just found your blog and cannot wait to start trying some of the hairstyles.
I have just cheap makeup brushes from Target-the E.L.F. ones (don’t judge me;). I do love the brush for eyeshadow and eyebrows! They changed the way I put on makeup!
I absolutely love my Sigma brushes! Their new synthetic line is the best for applying foundation flawlessly- and they are super reasonable! Thanks so much for the giveaway 🙂 ~wonderland622@gmail.com~

LOVE THIS! My fave brush is the Bare Escentuals Contouring Brush!
What a cool idea! Sometimes I find that with DIY items I end up spending more than the actual item were to cost if I bought it, but this one is great!! I recently purchased a stipple blush brush from ELF and love it, but I have my old standard Trish McEvoy brushes from college that I will never give up. Love your blog!
My favorite brush is an organic blush brush. I just purchased a few organic brushes the other day and they are so much softer on my skin than the others I used to buy!

My favorite brush is a bare escentuals perfect application foundation brush. I LOVE their products. I really want to invest in some MAC brushes soon though…
Great job – these would make great gifts! My all time favorite EVER brush is the MAC 217. If I could only have 1 brush for eyes, this would be the one.
It’s awesome that you used a placemat for this! I would have never thought of that. So clever!
I love my eyeshadow contour brush! I never wear just one color on my eyes!

emenchhofer@yahoo.com

Thanks!

My favorite brush is my Kabuki brush which is used for the all-important bronzer. I use it to brush it on my cheeks, sometimes my eyes when I when I don’t want to wear too much make-up, and even the cleavage just to accentuate a bit.
ADORE your blog!!! I’m so glad I stumbled upon it.
Smylystar@gmail.com

aemerson122201@gmail.com
I didn’t know what a brush roll was until this post! Now I need one 🙂 My go-to brush is my big, fluffy powder brush from Clinique, though I’d like to give a foundation brush a try. I’m just intimidated at the idea of having to clean it every.single.day…
bonnieshee[at]bellsouth.net
Kate… you’re adorable! What a clever little idea. My favorite brushes are definitly my Bare Essentials brushes. The blush brush… the eye shadow brushes… I use them all daily! This role would be a highly used item!
amarple@westga.edu
My absolute favorite makeup brush is a MAC 217 blending brush! I use it everyday!
pkaye921@yahoo.com
This is so cute!
My favorite brush is by Sonia Kashuk. It came in a 5-pack of brushes and it’s a big, fluffy blush brush that is so soft that putting on blush has become my favorite part of my makeup routine! And, to top it off, it has the cutest black and white patterned handle!
c_stanton@sbcglobal.net
I love this!! What a great idea! My favorite brush is my contoured blush brush. I don’t know the brand, but it is so soft and does its job perfectly!
blue_skies (at) ymail (dot) com
I LOVE this!! One more reason I NEED a sewing machine!! My favorite brush WAS my Kabuki Brish from Bare Esuentials, but my cat ate it. Seriously… my cat found it and all I found was the handle. I don’t even know where all the bristles went!!! I kept waiting for the mother of all hairballs, but it never came. (???)
So happy to be following your blog.
I Love my bare essentials eye shadow brushes!!! Softballash05@GMAIL.COM
I can’t live without my kabuki brush.

Very cool project I love my shadow brushes because they are the ones that get the most use…I can’t remember the brand they are, and I’m too comfy on my couch to go see {sad, I know}, but I’d love to have the brush roll to put them in!
How cute! My favorite brush is my e.l.f. bamboo foundation brush. The bristles are so stinkin’ soft!
Thanks for the giveaway!
alayna.tobey(at)gmail(dot)com
This is quite neat!!!
My favorite brush is a blending eyeshadow brush made my Sonia Kashuk for Target! I also have an eyeliner from Clinique in a little pot that comes with a tiny applicator paint brush that I’m always losing and it needs a permanent home!
Keep up the great work!!

Jamie
jamiemcsherry@earthlink.net
My favorite eye brush is the crease brush. All of my gf’s always ask me, “how do you get that definition in your crease? You will have to show me one day.” Little do they know thats its not my magician techniques of makeup application, but just the simple little crease brush which is amazing. One which they will all be receiving in a goodie bag for being a bridesmaid in my wedding! Great idea in using a placemat btw, and I am jealous of all of your mathcing, clean brushes.

ssrobinson76@yahoo.com
I love this! My only DiY downfall is sewing, and my mother is literally a master seamstress, go figure. My favorite brush is my Ulta blush brush. It has a short, fat handle so it fits perfectly in my make-up bag. Something like this would give me an excuse to add to my collection!
So cute! My favorite brush is my Bare Escentuals dual ended contour brush and eyeshadow brush. So soft!

My favorite brush is my crease brush from Sonia Kashuk. I have an entire set of her brushes and I just love them. But the crease brush is my favorite. If I could just have one, it would be that one.
jameskimdennis@yahoo.com
I have no idea what brand my brush is but it is a family hand me down. It is my powder brush. It started with my grandmother, made its way to my mother and now to me. They don’t make brushes like they used to. It is so durable and has just enough bristles that it doesn’t grab to much powder and it doesn’t loose bristles like the new ones do.
jpfravel@madisontelco.com
This is so cute, and genious!! My favorite brush is the MAC flat angled eyeliner brush!

emilydemyen@hotmail.com
This is a great idea! I really like the angled brush for doing eye liner. I love mixing my bare minerals eye lid primer with a little bit of shadow and using an angled brush.
Being a college student, I normally go to http://www.eyeslipsface.com to buy my brushes. I have always wanted to try brushes from Jane Iredale, though.
P.S. This is an AWESOME idea. More DIY projects, please! (I need study breaks : ) )
cbotma@purdue.edu
I am not entering since all my brushes have mini handles to fit in my medicine cabinet (small NY apartment bathrooms!) but I just wanted to comment that your post is inspiring me to check the placemat section of the store more often. I have a 2 year old so we avoid cloth placemats at all costs since she gets food on everything at every meal. Sometimes I miss the pretty colors but had never considered buying placemats and using them for other projects. Thank you!!!!
Hi Kate! My favorite brush is my eyebrow comb/eyelash separater… gotta keep those things in line! 🙂

I had to go to the derm and ended up getting some new makeup and am loving the Jane Iredale foundation brush.

I have a set of Mary Kay brushes. My fave is the non angled eyeshadow brush…but I do love them all and an in need of a new “carrying case” for them.

I have just entered the wonderful world of makeup burshes! I always just used the little sponge applicators that came with the makeup or my fingers! I really love one of my ecotools eye shadow brushes. It is an angled crease brush. It really helps me out 🙂 Love your blog and thanks for sharing your wonderful tips and tutorials! Magen914@gmail.com
My favorite brush is my Bare Essentials Kabuki Brush..it’s perfect for applying a powder foundation. Love the idea of a brush roll! I don’t have a sewing machine or I’d try to make it myself! Thanks so much for the opportunity to win!
Thanks again,

I have tons of brushes that I’ve gotten over the years. I have them all in a drawer right now and honestly don’t use most of them because I forget that they are there, so this would be PERFECT for me! My favorite brush is my contour brush! Crossing my fingers in hopes of winning this! katherineprice07@gmail.com
What an adorable idea! My Favorite brush is the Bare Escentuals Wet/dry shadow brush I absolutely couldn’t live without it!
cort_lynn_lee@yahoo.com
Oh wow! Awesome giveaway, and I love that it is hand made 🙂
I have two brushes that I always claim I can’t live without. If I had to pick just one it would without a doubt have to be my eyeliner brush. I am addicted to powder/gel liners. I have used them so long that pencil liners are difficult for me to put on now, lol! My pencil brush for crease application is a close second 🙂
email: helennaturally@gmail.com
So cute! My favorite brushes are made by Eco (i think that’s the name…) They have a bamboo handle and put on makeup like a dream 🙂
Kym.Ridl@gmail.com
I love my eyeshadow contour brush. I’m at a loss if I ever can’t find it. This turned out great! I love the placemat you chose.
I love this makeup roll! I need to dump all of my brushes on a towel everyday — and it’s very disorganized. My favorite brush is the Bare Essentials Heavenly Face Brush — it’s perfect!
Love your blog!

My favorite is Sephora’s mineral foundation brush – I actually use it for my BE and MUFE HD foundations… liquid or powder, it applies like a dream!!
My favorite brush is the $14.99 Sonia Kashuk synthetic flat brush from Target. I use it for my foundation! lmillerharris (at) gmail (dot) com
I really love eye shadow and blush brushes. I have been looking for a new set though and have been trying to find some that are nice so this would be a great way to keep new brushes nice longer.

I admire your patience–every time I get near a sewing machine, I get overwhelmed. I’d say the one I use the most is the Sephora Professional Contour brush (a round, flat top brush) so that one would my favorite/and/or necessity for me!
E-mail bridgetshops925@gmail.com
Thanks! 🙂
I have a lot of great brushes, but my favorite is an Elizabeth Arden shadow brush that my mom gave me when I was about 12 years old (I’m 37 now). I can remember playing with it in her bathroom before she gave it to me. I use it every day!
kristen.baggett@gmail.com
Love the brush roll….looks so simple to make! If I don’t win I will make one! I really don’t have a favorite brush I really love all of them I have Mary Kay and Bare Essentials. If I had to pick one it would be my angled brush from bare essentials for my eye shadow.
I love your blog – and all your hair tutorials. I always get complements on my hair when I try one of your styles
First of all, I LOVE your blog! I found it through Jenna’s (eatliverun) blog and am officially addicted! My favorite brush would have to be the one I use for all-over shadow. Not sure what the name of it is, but its fat and fluffy. I have way too many brushes, so this would be so awesome to help me organize!!
My email address is:
meganmckee1@hotmail.com
My all time favourite brush is my sigma flat top kabooki brush! Foundation goes on like butter!
Thanks!
emily_osmer@hotmail.com
This is the neatest idea! I hate the way my brushes “tint” everything in my makeup bag… I would have to say my favorite brush is either my Bronzer brush or my eye shadow brush. I would love to win this item!
semory@bbandt.com
I love ALL of my brushes from ELF! If I had to pick one, I’d have to choose my eye crease brush. It is perfect that smoky look and I use it every single day.
Thanks!
amanda.reinert@bryancave.com
I love my Laura Mercier concealer brush. It does the trick every time and creates a flawless, even look.
So crafty, I love it! My fave brushes right now are the Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman-I have several, and they are all amazing! Email: bpopro(at)att(dot)net.
Favorite Brush is my angled eye liner brush from Smashbox. I love your blog and I love the make up roll bag! Sweet!
I have a lot of brushes…2 different sets from E.L.F. I would add my most used brushes to the roll. I think my favorite brush that I have would be the flat top blush brush that I use for foundation.
janders509@gmail.com
My favorite is my Bare Escentuals foundation brush. Thanks for the giveaway!
My favorite brush is my MAC eye liner brush. I would fill the bag with all of my eye shadow, blush, and foundation brushes!
This looks like a perfect first sewing project! I love my blush brush by Sonya K from Target. amfflores@gmail.com
Lovely idea 🙂
I love my MAC angled eyeliner brush that I just got a few weeks ago. I hope I win 🙂
Pastorswife1998@sbcglobal.net
I don’t have a sewing machine, but I may head to my friends house (that has one) and make it a group project. Although I don’t have3 many brushes, I would like to add a foundation blending brush to my (small) arsenal. Or, I could just make the sleeves different sizes to accommodate my small hair cutting scissors and tweezers.:)
Jacksaves@hotmail.com
It’s a toss up for me! I’m stuck between my clinique bronzer brush and my clinique powder brush. I can do my eyes with pretty much anything, qtip, finger, sponge, but I cannot get the application of my powder foundation (glo minerals) with out one of this two brushes.
Love your blog! I check back daily hoping for a new post.
Amandajadeshaffer@gmail.com
My favorite make up brush is my eyeliner brush. I really enjoy the pop that eye color can give someone and the drama it can bring.
If I don’t win I will defiantly be making one!
bmbarrow@hotmail.com
I could definately use this! It is hard to choose a favorite, but use my Bare Escentuals Shadow brush every day and love it! Thanks for the great idea!!!
Erin
klekar26@sbcglobal.net
The brush I use everyday is for my mineral foundation from Mary Kay so that would be my favorite because without it I would have no makeup on 🙂 ! I have had it forever and defintely need a new one (plus all new brushes 🙂 )
michelleremund@hotmail.com
How awesome! I love the Kabuki brushes from Every Day Minerals! 🙂
I love my eye liner brush! Rreat givaway! So nice of you! koozig5@yahoo.com

I would have to go with my Tarte blush brush as my favorite! I have so many brushes and have been trying to figure out a way to organize them. The solution for now is to throw them in a drawer but this is so much better!
mnbjragb@gmail.com
I LOVE this idea!! I was just looking for something like this for the many brushes I have. At the moment they are sitting in a make up bag and it is a pain to not see them all laying out when I use them. My favorite brush is my Bobbi Brown Face Brush! I have had it forever and is the one I use every single day.

This is sooo cute! I’ve been looking for something simple also! My new favorite brush is my new foundation brush. I used to just use those sponges, I just never spend the money on a foundation brush but now that I have it I love it! I love all my brushes but its my new favorite!

I LOOOVE my eco tools large blush brush!
elebeda@gmail.com
Wow! Another great idea. I need one of these! I have recently developed a new obsession with make-up and brushes. My latest favorite is one I got free at sephora (gotta love those freebies) that I didn’t even notice for several weeks after I got it. On one end it is a liner and the other is just a perfect blending tool for eyeshadow. If I don’t win yours, I am going to brush the dust off my sewing machine and see if I can make it work.
Christine
christine@danna-elmers.com
Such a great idea! I thoroughly suck at using a sewing machine though, so I’ll have to enter your giveaway. 🙂 My favorite brush is the Real Techniques Deluxe Crease brush. It’s perfect for blending your eyeshadows.
sara.bofferding@gmail.com
I love all my brushes for bare minerals…I have 2 favorites that I cant live without!! The full coverage and the handy buki… I just got a bunch of new brushes too & I have no place to put them so that cute little wrap would be perfect!!! My email is Allie.gramme@gmail.com
Ps I LOVE your blog!! 😉
I love, love, love my Studio Gear brushes. The kabuki brush is my favorite because it’s super soft and fluffy. The one I use the most is the foundation brush. They’re fabulous brushes.
Stephanie

I use my bronzing brush practically every day, cuz I like being tan :). Great idea on the placemat/brush bag! If I don’t win, I’m going to have my mom make one for me (she’s the whiz with the sewing machine!).

Cute Idea 🙂
I love my large round brush, good for all kinds of makeup applications. Plus after finding your blog i am so much more into brushes now. 🙂
carla_moo_moo@yahoo.com
How beautiful! My favorite brush is the angled brush (from Costco!) So handy! If I had a brush wrap I would definitely put that in first because I’m always losing it!
blueroxy6@yahoo.com
WOW.. YOU ARE SO CREATIVE AND CRAFTY 🙂 I dont even know where to begin to sew. hehe.. I love all kids of brushes. But my favorite is the big powder brush. I got it from clinique. I love the way it feels on my skin. My email is jwagner@dpisd.org ;0)
This makeup roll is so cute! I wish I could sew! My favorite makeup brush is my Clinique Blush Brush. My Blush Brush would be the first one I’d put in the roll!
kmm5355@gmail.com
I’m a lover of the bare minerals brushes I have, which is most of them! I really love the blush brush and crease brush. My e-mail is sbjerklie@hotmail.com.
My roommate has been nagging me for the past week about how i keep my makeup brushes in a little basket beside the sink in the bathroom! He will get mad at me and sit a couple of my little eye brushes out on the sink for the water to drip all over. I’ve been looking for one of these, but i don’t like busy patterns or plain black and haven’t been able to find one! This is such a great idea! If i don’t win this, I will definitely try to make one. Although, I haven’t used a sewing machine since I was a Freshman in High School! My favorite EcoTools Kabuki brush definitely needs a better place to be stored! Thanks so much for posting this!

Bare Minerals brushes! They come with a brush cleaner, which I love. I also have a couple brushes from Benefit of San Francisco, but BM is my go-to brush 99% of the time!

I was just saying last week how badly I need one of these! I just got a ton of new MAC brushes for Christmas, and I need something to keep them organized. It’s so hard to pick my favorite, so I’d have to say it’s between the 217 eyeshadow brush, and my stippling brush.
michea_johnson@yahoo.com
I love my Clinique foundation brush. I couldn’t live without it.
julie1feist@gmail.com
Great tutorial! My favorite brush is probably the kabuki because it’s great for putting on powder foundations. If I don’t win, I’ll likely try to make one of these myself!
I totally love a good blush brush. Even if you’re in a rush there’s still probably a little blush left in the bristles for a quick swipe across the cheek:) Great DIY idea Small Things! Love it. It’s adorbs!
Kate, I just discovered your blog and love it!
I have the Mary Kay brush set, and I love the blush brush- especially for these winter months with my pale skin! 🙂
Sarah
sarahh6@iastate.edu
What a great idea! I have a sewing machine, but I can never figure out how to thread the thing, and I am too ADHD to sit and read the directions – zero patience! Anyway, my favorite brush is my dual ended eyeshadow brush from bare escentials. Use it every day!
Melody
mdtraugott@yahoo.com
I’m a serious Bare Escentuals fan and my favorite brush is the Double-Ended Precision Brush for eyes. Easy to do everything at once!
I would fill it with my bare minerals makeup brushes, especially with my concealer brush!

I actually am in the process of redoing my makeup set….my old brushes are all off brands from discounts stores. Decided this is the year to ‘grow up’ and treat myself on all beauty products, etc. that I want. I work hard and deserve it 🙂 Great idea!
I just love eyeshadow brushes in general, they work way better than those little things that come with eyeshadows. I have 4 different ones, different shapes/angels and for different purposes.

I love my kabuki brushes! Great for full coverage!
Meghan3180@gmail.com
The brush I use daily for stippling my liquid foundation is made by Elf. Elf makes some nice brushes for VERY reasonable prices. I don’t have a makeup brush roll but would love to use one!
ametris1981@yahoo.com
Oh this is a good idea!!! I have some MAC brushes that came in a case but I’m not a super big fan of the case anymore. I bought my brushes a LLLOOONNNGGG time ago and I absolutely love them but a new case would be just what they need!
Question – when you need to wash the case, do you just throw it in the washing machine?
My favourite is a Sephora smudge brush I have but I’d love to get my hands on some Sigma brushes!
I love the color and the idea…you are a GENUIS ! I love all my brushes, but I really like my kabuki brush that I apply my bare mineral makeup with. It is so cute and small…just a fit for the hand!

Genius! This is one of those “why didn’t I think of that?!” projects. I can’t wait to attempt it myself! My favorite brush is my blush one from Eco Tools. It’s the softest one I have EVER purchased, which is staying a lot for a brush junkie like me. The fact that it’s inexpensive makes it even more fabulous!
My email: shelbyrj@gmail.com
LOVE this idea!!!! I have been wanting a new brush holder!!! I currently use a caboodle (YUCK) and they are jumbled together and it DRIVES ME CRAZY! But I wanted something inexpensive. Anyway, I would fill mine first with my eye brushes…I ALWAYS have to do my eyes. I don’t leave home without eye makeup.
email: heather.beach.100408@gmail.com
This is adorably clever! Im loving my foundation brush makes everything so smooth and flawless. Thanks for the giveaway!
My favorite brush is the MAC 225. Totally awesome blending brush for your crease. I use it every day!
My favorite makeup brush is the blush/powder brush. I love my blush brush. It is big, it is soft, and it is so easy to use. I loved swirling it around on the powder and then applying it- it is a comfort tool.
My favorite is my Bare Escentuals foundation brush. BTW, love the makeup roll. You’re so crafty! If I had a sewing machine I would have no idea how to use it! Good for you!
I just purchased a set of new brushes, and since I don’t have a rollup like this, I just keep them in the container they came in, not attractive :/ I dont’ know which brush I like best, I love them all, and I enjoy using different brushes for different things and challange myself :]

Love it!! My favorite brush is my daughters! She uses brushes from bareMinerals. I guess I will have to buy my own as soon as she figures out I have one and takes it back!
My favorite is a fluffy eyeshadow brush (not sure what the number is) from MAC.
thresholdofgreatness@gmail.com
SO cute!!! I LOVE all of my Bare Escentuals brushes!!
I seriously need a sewing machine in my life. I’m not sure I could justify the expense to the hubs though. My favorite brush is my Sonia Kashuk Flat Blusher Brush, which is perfect for foundation.
oh my this wrap is so perfect! if I don’t win this i’m going to try and make my own 🙂 my favorite brush is the flat top kabuki by sigma!
I love my Bare Minerals Kabuki Brush. It is fabulous!
I love my eyeshadow brush. It is an absolute must when applying eyeshadow. You just cannot use those little plastic things with “sponge nubs” that come in the compacts. Another one I can’t live without is my blush brush. I don’t wear foundation for the most part, but I do like to add color to my cheeks, and this soft, fluffy, but not overly large brush provides just the amount of color and slight contour needed to make a face beautiful. dorothy(dot)wu(at)live(dot)com
Too many to choose, but I do love my big powder brush.
Love the make up roll idea, if I don’t win, I may just make one myself!

Oh my gosh i love love love love this!!! all my brushes are floating around in my makeup bag. My favorite brush is the full coverage one that I put my mineral veil on with. It’s so soft and it does the perfect job!
Sadly, my favorite brush is my blush brush from Avon years ago! The way it’s shaped just fits perfectly to where your blush should go on your face, and it’s the right thickness too! Just haven’t felt a need yet to find another one! My favorite eye brush set though is my sigma ones, they work wonders!

Hi,
I am very challenged when it comes to make-up as I am the only girl in my family that wears more than lipstick. I know, gasp! I have recently discovered ELF for practice make-up and currently have that brush collection even though I am not quite sure how to use them yet. ha! Cute idea!

I love Sonia Kashuk eyeshadow brushes…they work well and are a great value. I love the brush roll and your creativity is amazing…who would have thought a simple placemat would double as a brush roll…love it!!!
Such a great project! I’ve been wanting a brush roll forever for travel, and this one would be perfect 🙂 My favorite brush is a $1 e.l.f. eyeshadow brush…in fact, I own 3. Super inexpensive and they work great.

I love the angled eyeliner brush. I’d love for you to do a tutorial on how to utilize different types of eye brushes… I feel like I’m not ever sure what each one in my big set is for (mine aren’t all labeled like yours! What brand are yours?) Thanks for the chance to win. I love your blog!
I love me Sonia Kashuk blush brush from Target!

Believe it or not, my favorite brush is an eye shadow brush made by “Jane” cosmetics—a drug store cheapie that I’ve had for years! Thank goodness I purchased more than one since they no longer make them. It’s a perfect narrow brush great for doing my creases with shadow. It’s not even contoured. I’ve purchased more expensive brushes from department stores, but some of my favorite (read: “easy to use”) are my drug store brushes! Ulta and Sephora also have good brushes via their store brands. Love the cosmetic roll! What makes it even better is that you can probably put into a lingerie bag and wash on gentle cycle when you need to freshen it up! Fabulous! Love your blog!

My favorite brush is my organic full coverage brush. Being that I have really bad allergies, I find this brush to be A-MAZING!!!!! It is all natural and gives me a flawless look while not affecting my allergies. Being that I have experienced an Anaphylactic reaction, I have to choose everyday items very carefully! I just came across your blog and have falled in love with it! In fact, I used your flat iron straight techniques this morning and have gotten so many compliments at work today!!! THANK YOU!!! If you were in Virginia, I would drive to you and let you be my hairstylist!!!

Shelby Hart
shelbyleehart@gmail.com
Oh my gosh this is the most ingenious thing I’ve ever seen! Who needs to spend $30+ on buying one? Anyways – my favorite brush is my flat top synthetic kabuki from Sigma Brushes. It’s the most amazing brush for any kind of foundation – gives you an airbrushed finish! <3
I love this…it’s super cute! Currently my favorite brush is actually made by elf! I was shocked but this brush is actually a blending brush…its great at blending and removing the excess eyeshadoe. I am looking into bare minerals brushes after seeing all of the hype, here on thr small things blog!
Etagurl89@gmail.com
oops and my email is Kerrylake2@gmail.com
I am so excited for this! I went to art school and paint on the side still, and this is SUPER cute! I have one of these for my paint brushes but NEVER thought of it for my makeup brushes!? I just have those in a little tall metal canister! this is genius!
My favorite makeup brushes: 1) brozer brush….what can i say? I LOVE bronzer! I used to work at a tanning salon, and since I dont anymore and my fiance made a pact with me that I am not allowed to tan, and when I travel to warm places I am required to wear spf 15 minimum…..bronzer is my friend <3 i actually prefer it to blush. i hardly ever wear blush. but bronzer i LOVE
2) my eyeshadow blending brush. I love being able to get a great fade/gradient in my eyeshadow colors, making the outer edges darker and having it be gradual and not super drastic. love this brush!
what a crafty lady you are 🙂 never would have thought of that! and your color choice is superb! very clean!
melissa.pattee@gmail.com
I am not sure about their names. Just call them my big brush and little brush. 🙂 But I would like to add a few more. Love the roll. Thanks!

That is adorable. I need to learn how to sew. My mom is a pro at it, but I just haven’t picked it up. I would use this for all the random eye brushes I have scattered around my makeup drawer. Every morning while I’m still half asleep, I spend at least 5 minutes digging around until I find the right one.
I like my bare minerals concealer brush. It makes my well rested go on so nice that it looks like I am rested even though I’ve two very active little boys!
breanneo{at}gmail{dot}com
Well pretty much the only brushes I’ve ever owned are from ELF (that really cheap target brand) $1 dolla haaaay! And that’s because i’m 19 and extremely cheap b/c really i have no other option than to look out for the best deals. I’ve always wanted to have a mac brush (my older sister uses them) but i’ll have to wait till i either win the lottery, get her leftovers, or marry a man who is loaded. The most realistic is my sisters hand me downs. Yay siblings!

angib@charter.net
My favorite brush is my MAC 187 Duo Fibre Brush (had to look it up… I just always call it my “fluffy brush” hehe) because it allows me to control the amount of studio fix foundation I apply and it goes on so evenly.
alice(dot)harvey(at)gmail(dot)com
I can’t live without my foundation brush. It creates the best finish! I also love my kabuki because it creates great coverage. Making a brush holder is such a great idea! It would be perfect for using at college.
Katelyn kaphilipp@yahoo.com

Very cute. I love the ribbon. I have 2 brushes I use everyday. I have a MAC angled brush I use to apply color to my eyebrows. The other is just a short brush I use to apply eyeshadow…I think it’s Cover Girl.

I use Mary Kay. Love their brushes but want to try MAC brushes soon!
I love angled brushes! I use 3 different sizes for my eye makeup. They seem to be easier for me to use and very easy to clean. Your brush roll is an amazing idea! Also definitely a great gift idea!
ceejay.johnston@yahoo.com
My Clinique contour brush for the eye crease. I love it because not only can it be used in the creases of eyes, but it’s perfect for highlighting under the brow, adding that shimmer spot in the corner of the eye, and even on the top of your cheekbones for some added highlight and shimmer! It’s like 4 brushes in one! LOVE your little makeup roll! thompson.jennifer@live.com
I love what you did that is a great idea. I wish I knew how to use sewing machine I would definitively make this. I just recently started buying good make up brushes and I love my Mac Kabuki brush. I would be interesting in know what kind of brushes you use not sure if you have covered that topic as well.

So before I even got to the part of the blog where you wanted to know our favorite brushes, I was going to comment to suggest a piece on all of your brushes(or what different types you suggest every girl should have!) I own a few, my favorite being my bare minerals foundation brush bc it seems to put the powder so evenly on my face and its lasted for years. But I noticed in one blog you said to use a eye shadow brush for light shadows only, and I never thought about that but it makes perfect sense not to mix light and darks. So anyway I would love to see something along those lines with all of your brushes!! Now I must go find (or make) a brush roll bc yours looks great!
Runk.rr@gmail.com
Such a great idea!! I would have to say my foundation brush is my favorite right now. Soft, easy to clean and gets the job done. Did I mention it’s pink too…even better! 🙂

My powder foundation brush from clinique. It is so soft on my face!
I can’t live without my MAC brushes, especially my foundation brush! It has taken me forever to collect them all, but I now have two full rolls of them. This idea is genuis! I love to sew, so off to Target I go to buy a placemat haha! Thanks for the great idea!

mreavill28@gmail.com
My favorite brush is really ALL of my Bare Escentuals brushes – lol! It is amazing what you can do with a placement! I’ve made purses and bedside organizers with them! Love your brush roll!
Great idea! I have more than 100 makeup brushes, so it’s hard to narrow it down to one favorite, but if choosing one, I would have to say my IB106 – Italian Badger Angle Brush from Crown. A little tan powder contouring with this brush takes off at least 5 lbs.! I also can’t live without a metal-toothed eyelash comb! sareeves@cox.net
That is so cute! I’ve always despised the too-busy look on most carriers, but that is so easy to do! I like the sable tuft paint brush… I never learned the make-up stuff, but I love art:)
breannapgray(at)gmail(dot)com
I love the maximum coverage concealer brush because it covers up the dark circles under my eyes!! Magic!
:o) Very cute idea!!

Great idea! I have over 100 makeup brushes, so it’s hard to choose just one, but I would have to pick the IB106 – Italian Badger Angle Brush from Crown. With a little tan powder and this brush, I can contour 5 lbs from my face! I also can’t live without a metal-toothed eyelash comb! Thanks! sareeves@cox.net

My fave brush is the Laura Mercier Fan Powder Brush (see here: http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P277509&categoryId=B70). I have actually noticed that my makeup stays on longer just by using this soft, thin and flat, brush! It’s perfect for your makeup travel bag (or a brush roll!) because it’s lightweight and flat… but it gets the job done and really completes your look.
xoxo,

Hey Kate! I love your blog! My favorite makeup brush is the M.A.C dual fibre brush for foundation application. By the looks of your picture, you have a brush like this as well. It definitely gives my foundation a lightweight feel and helps to evenly distribute around the face.
Such a great idea! I am going to pin it on Pinterest! I’m sure you already have. 😉
I love my bare minerals eyeshadow brush…and all my brushes have a great purpose that I don’t want to live without. 🙂 I have several of the same brushes you have. 🙂 I REALLY hope I win!!!! Thank you!
My makeup brush inventory is slim to none, since finging your blog in December I have invested in and use many of the products that you sugest. I really only use like two make-up brushes but I have been wanting more ever since you did the your make up blog. I think that even if i don’t win this one that I will attempt to make my own so that I will just “do it” and invest in new brushes for myself! Thank you for your time!!
I just love my big powder brush.
Thanks, Tara

Mahumphrey21@yahoo.com
My favorite brush I use is my Kabuki brush I use to put on my powder to set foundation!

I actually only have a few make-up brushes, none of which I would consider a favorite. But I am starting to get a bit more “girly” + into wearing make-up more often, so I’m pretty sure I’ll be doing a lot of brush buying in the future. Thanks for the chance to win 🙂

This may sound strange, but I just started using eyeshadow brushes last year when I started learning more detailed eyeshadow techniques for my wedding, and I purchased Target’s brand of eyeshadow brushes (Up and Up) and I think they work great. Maybe it’s just my novice talking 🙂
P.S. – I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog – even though I’m not creative like you with your hair and makeup ideas, you really inspire me to try new things! I have Pinterest to thank for introducing your blog to me!

Love this! Great gift idea! I have my brushes in a cute clear glass vase with beads in it, but this would be perfect for travel. My dave brush is my MAC foundation brush, leaves a flawless finish! Make sure to clean your brushes ladies! If you notice breakouts for no reason, it may be your brushes! A little bit of baby shampoo works, no need for any fancy cleaners. Wash it till the water runs clear and let air dry. I do this once per week before I go to bed. 🙂

This may sound strange, but I just started using eyeshadow brushes last year when I started learning more detailed eyeshadow techniques for my wedding, and I purchased Target’s brand of eyeshadow brushes (Up and Up) and I think they work great. Maybe it’s just my novice talking 🙂
P.S. – I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog – even though I’m not creative like you with your hair and makeup ideas, you really inspire me to try new things! I have Pinterest to thank for introducing your blog to me!

Im not much of a makeup person simply b/c I haven’t had the time to explore it. But what i do love is eyes! I love my eye shadow detail brushes and smudge brushes. So this would be a great thing to get me organized with what little makeup stuff I have! and have room for more! 🙂
hpowers1129@gmail.com
And yet another great tute!…I would have to say my favorite make-up brush is my Bare Escentuals concealer brush! As a working mom of two active little boys, I always need the superb dark circle under eye coverage 😉

I LOVE my entire set of make up brushes that I received as a graduation present! They are Bobby Brown brushes and my favorite one would have to be my concealing brush. It is so lightweight and doesn’t clump my concealing make up, making my zits way less noticeable! LOVE them, just need a brush roll for them! 🙂

I forgot my email! It’s rebeccamh03@hotmail.com 🙂
Hi Kate – You are so creative and talented.. I love this idea! I absolutely love my Sephora powder and blush brushes because they are ultra soft and the bristles never fall out. I do have a few Sonia Kashuk for Target brow and lip brushes that are also very good quality but for less money.
I’ve been looking for a sewing machine actually- can you recommend a particular one?
THANK YOU!

I just had a baby this past summer and have fallen out of my daily makeup routine and am dying for an excuse to get back into it! The only brush I have and use now is my bronzer brush that’s about all the make up I had time for! But winning this I will def. Find the time, this idea is so cute and handy for us moms on the go! Thanks so much for this awesome blog!

I got my brushes as a gift from Target (glorious of all places) a few years ago and I love them! I have a few cheap-o ones from the elf section of Target that I can’t seem to stop buying…
I am desperate for a makeup brush solution and this is just what I need! I collect brushes so it is hard to pick a favorite, but I think it has to be my big fluffy Bare Escentuals flawless application face brush. It is so soft and provides great coverage. Thanks so much for your amazing blog! I’ve learned so many great tips and tricks!

It’s a tie between my big floofy blush brush and my small-medium eye shadow brush. I use them multiple times each day (have to shower 2-3x everyday at work) and I need something that I can put them in to protect them in my purse since I’m always taking them back and forth with me. Looks great!
My favorite brush is the Bare Escentuals “heavenly face” brush. I use it along with all my other Bare Escentuals products. Thanks for your insights into make-up and hair. I love every one of them. I’m so glad I found your site!!!
I just posted a few minutes ago (about having to shower at work) and my email is Lake.69@osu.edu
I actually LOVE the brushes that come with my Bare Escentuals make up. So soft and apply the makeup with ease. PS Love the make up bag wrap tutorial. I’m NOT crafty but may attempt this! Very cute!
Email: kmiller720.km@gmail.com
Great project! And it looks like it would coordinate nicely with my DIY vanity! 😉
My favorite brush (of many! My friends say I’m a makeup hoarder!) Would probably be my slanted eyeshadow brush from sephora. I use it to fill in my brows for a quick, dramatic difference.

I am not a sewer either so this tutorial ROCKS! I love all my Bare Escentuals brushes, however, I scored a Body Buki brush on QVC once and I love it in the summer for an all over shimmer! AND I love my smaller Buki brushes, too, however, I have an eyeshadow brush that I ADORE! It’s a simple brush on one side and a contour sweeper on the other side. Cannot live without it. Shannonfabulous@gmail.com Thanks for the opportunity to possibly NOT make a brush holder! LOL!!!
First of all..I love your blog. I recently discovered it and my hair thanks you for it :o) On to the post about the makeup brush… I would have to say my favorite brush is my large eyeshadow brush because I use it most frequently and its a nice size! Email address: alexispeterson01@gmail.com
Funny story…I was looking online earlier today for the PERFECT brush bag and couldn’t find ANYTHING. I gave up my search all together then hours later just browsing everthing on Pintrest I ran across this! An aswer to the Brush Bag Prayer!
My favorite brush is my crease brush! It makes adding the darker colors to the crease SO easy and whether I’m doing a more natural look or a smokey eye it turns out perfect everytime! I give the credit to my brush and not to me.
Trista – EuropeCrazed@hotmail.com
I love contour brushes!! Kathleen (kjpwv5@mail.umkc.edu)

I hardly ever wear makeup. I could totally use this as my motivation for getting back into wearing makeup more often. I have a few nice Mary Kay brushes.

Amy Adkins
Amyadkins3455@aol.com
My favourite brush has to be my overall brush – it’s supposed to be a powder brush but when held (and cleaned!) the right way, you can use it for powder, blush, bronzer and contouring, all by holding the bristles in a different way. Even though I have all those brushes separately (hence the need for a brush roll bigger then my current!) my powder brush would definitely be a deserted island essential due to it’s versatility!
Amanda

I love all my Clinique brushes! Can’t choose just one!
And I may have to make one…if I don’t win that is! 🙂 Fun gift for friends though!
What a good idea!!! I don’t think I have the craftiness to come up with something like that 😉 My favorite brushes are eco tools – with my favorite one being my kabuki! SimplyKristi426@gmail.com
I LOVE this idea!!! I’ve been using Bare Minerals FOREVER…..so of course I love all their makeup brushes!! I think I have almost all of them!!! This would be the perfect thing for me to win for my brushes!! 🙂

Wow! How clever of you – what a great idea. I love how neat and organized my brushes will be with a holder like that. I have to say I love using a foundation brush now to apply my make-up instead of using my fingers or a sponge as I had done in the past. My brushes are my makeups’ best friends 😉 Jennie at jghear@hotmail.com
I love my foundation make up brush. It is the brush I use everyday.
Wish I knew the basics to sewing! Looks great!
kaitywarren@gmail.com
There are just so many brushes that I can’t seem to figure out what to do with! The two I mainly use are for blush and my eyes. Those are ok, but the fun one, the one I wish I knew what to do with is the fan brush. What do you do with that?!!!

It’s such a great idea! I have to have one! 🙂 I put all my brushes in a small but still tall vase so I always have difficulty to reach for the smaller brushes. The brush I prefer is my bronzer brush. Thanks for all the inspiration! I totally love your blog.
cath.ouimet@gmail.com
How cute! I’m sure I could make sewing a straight line difficult though.. ha anyways I use pretty standard brushes but my favorite is my angled brushes! =)

Marklovessue@numail.org
Love this idea! Such a great idea for birthday/Christmas gifts too 🙂 My fav brush is a higlighting brush…which I do not own…but would like to. A fav that I own is my blending brush. By the way, I rocked my first “Small Things Hair” (as I call it) to a party on Friday- to many rave reviews from my girlfriends. Thanks for helping this Mom of three who barely has time to shower feel not so “frumpy” 🙂
Carly
My fav brush is actually a metal eyelash comb. I finally found a long-handled one; I’ve been using the Japonais folding comb/brush. Thanks so much for doing this for us! 🙂

Holy brushes batman…I have an elcheapo dual ended brush from Avon with one small end for liner and the other is an angled brush I use for highlighting or a dab of sparkle. I think it was $0.99 with purchase last year. It’s the bread to my BUTTER! Mandi Moore (yes that is my real name)mmoore@acsd1.org
I love my blush brush! It’s the perfect size and it’s super soft and light so the color goes on perfect every time.
cm(dot)abrahams(at)gmail(dot)com
I love this!! my favorite brush is the MAC angled brow brush. I have 3 of them! it’s stiff and great for brow powder and powdered liner, but soft enough for contour.
My favorite brush is my big fat blush brush! What a cute idea and giveaway!! 🙂 hannahwing319@gmail.com
I absolutely love my Mary Kay brushes!! And I love the DIY project…you did a fantabulous job!!!
My favorite “face” brushes are from Bare Minerals and my favorite “eye” brushes are from MAC. My email is juliaelam@yahoo.com! Thanks! =]
I love my concealer brush…it hides everything! And I love this idea. I have been trying to find a way to store my brushes without just throwing them in a drawer or leaving them on a shelf to get dusty. This is perfect! mandacarlene@hotmail.com
For Christmas this year, I bought mysef the Elf professional kit and I love it, but my favorite brush is a mutt! I’ve had it forever, probably since junior high. I don’t even know what line it came from! It’s just a big huge fluffy brush and I use it for powder…blush…and bronzer. I mean, I use it on a daily basis and it’s still soft and never sheds, even after YEARS of use.
I too love my Bare Minerals brushes! My most favorite would probably be the kabuki brush…but the ultimate concealer runs a close second!

How do you clean your makeup brushes? I have some that are years old but still in good shape. I don’t know if I should trash them or try to clean them.
I don’t need the brush bag myself, but it was a great tutorial!

I love my contour eyeshadow brush from cvs. It’s not my most expensive brush but it really made a difference in how I do my shadow. If I don’t win I am def making one of these! Awesome idea. Love your blog! Been a follower for a few months now!

I love my make up brushes! You want me to choose only one???? hmm…probably my blush brush (it’s like a tall skinny kabuki= not sure the exact name). Love it!! jennifer(dot)goode22(at)gmail(dot)com
My favorite is the Bare Escentuals Full Coverage Kabuki Brush! All of my brushes are a mess right now, so having somewhere nice and neat to store them would be wonderful!

I think this is so clever! My absolute favorite brush is my eyeshadow brush that my mom got me from Sephora! It was the greatest “just because” present because I use it daily! 🙂
I love that you made your own- if I could sew I probably would make one too- I have trouble finding patterns and prints I can’t live without in almost any bag– my husband calls it being picky! Haha!
Luel.love@yahoo.com
I sell Avon so naturally I use our brushes but do have a couple of favs…a full powder brush and eye shadow brush, are my favs. Would love a roll wrap to keep them all in.
This is awesome! Makes me wish I could sew!
My favorite makeup brush is anything by Bare Minerals, especially the concealer brush!
angelatfisher@gmail.com
That is so cute and creative! I love bare essentials brushes!
I love my Handy Buki Brush from Bare Escentuals! It is perfect for applying my Bare Escentuals Light Foundation! I also love this idea and I may just have to make some of these for family this year for Xmas.. I better start on them soon so that I don’t wait till the last minute and then not have time, like I typically do! I love you blog! mom2pooka@gmail.com
my fav brush is a big soft blush brush!
my e-mail – judyvanwye@bellsouth.net
This is a great idea!
A while back I splurged on a set of MAC makeup brushes and I am so glad I did. To me, the girl who gets blotchy at the touch of nearly anything, they make all the difference in the world. The foundation blush is my favorite, it helps to keep coverage even and smooth! This bag would be perfect for my many brushes which currently sit in a mason jar on my vanity and travel in a zip loc bag (GASP!).
Thanks for your consideration!

My fave makeup brush(out of the 187 or so I have) is a ‘spouncer’ type from Sephora that I use for my Bare Escentuals. Helps cover up the reality that is the skin of my mid thirties (ie pimples and wrinkles oh my!)

I’m a bit lost, did you not include one of the steps? You mentioned placing pins for each brush space and they you mentioned sewing one straight line and they you are done?
I love all my brushes from E.L.F. – especially the blush brush. I would *love* a brush roll…you’d hate to see my makeup bag I currently use. Ugh.
You did a great job on the bag! Wish I knew how to sew.

How cool!! I may have to try this on my hardly-ever-used sewing machine!!
My old fave is the Sephora eyeshadow/smudge brush. My new fave… Bare Minerals!! I’ve fallen in love!!
I own brushes…well not sure if what I own is brushes or not. 🙂 I only have the little brushes that come with the eyeshadow compact it self, or blush compact etc… I use the sponge thingys to apply my foundation. I would like to try out the foundation brush. So if I had a makeup brush holder…i would probably try out several more brushes to better apply my makeup. 🙂 Love your blog too! Amber brandonandamber@comcast.net
I LOVE my bronzer brush! It is by far my favorite one because it is big and poufy and makes my bronzer look natural!
breannielyssie14@hotmail.com
Excellent idea…very creative use of a clearance item, too!
My fav makeup brush is my blusher brush. I’m on the hunt for a new concealer brush and foundation brush, too, since the ones I have are on their last leg. Guess I’ll need to spend a little more this time on them and get better quality!

My all time FAV brush is my bare esentuals full flawless application brush. I use it for my foundation and love on evenly it applies. 🙂
I have had my favorite brush for about 20 years. I got it in high school in one of those kits you get for xmas from an aunt or something! It’s a cheapie but it’s stubby, compact bristles are perfect for blending my eyeshadow in the crease.

Love this idea!!! I’m making one or two or seventeen as soon as I figure this sewing machine out. Or maybe I’ll win the extra you made and then I can just con my mom into making one for some of my friends 🙂
As for my favorite makeup brush, that’s a no-brainer, I LOVE my blush brush. I’m more obsessed with the actual blush then the brush, but the brush gets it on my face so I can’t exactly have one without the other 😉

This is such a cute idea. I don’t own any brushes but my daughter has some and this would be an awesome gift for her!
I am in desperate need of something to hold all of my makeup brushes! Right now I am currently using a small turquoise vase that an edible arrangements fruit tree came in (yes i know what your thinking) But if I get this brush roll I would be most excited about putting my eye shadow brushes in it!! Because there are so many!
Devin

Love it and want it! Even if I don’t win yours, I will be looking for one! My favorite brush is my blush brush.

I love your blog and the makeup brush roll bag! My favorite brushes are BareMinerals concealer brush and handy buki brush. Both give great coverage! The concealer brush is especially great with well rested by BareMinerals. That stuff is a miracle worker in the mornings! I am also a hairstylist and love your how to hairstyles! My clients have shown me some of your pictures and thought I would check out your blog. It’s great that you are showing so many people easy ways to fix their hair, wear cute outfits and diy crafty ideas!

I love your idea! My favorite brush is my eyeliner brush…until I discovered it I failed a eyeliner. I’m Pat, my email is pat.cedillo@gmail.com
My must have brush is the soft focus eyeshadow brush from BareEscentuals. I love how it applies my shadows to my crease, inner and outer eye areas! It also blends multiple colors together well on the eye.

Love my blush brush from bare minerals. My email is martier1@yahoo.com
My favorite makeup brush is my big clinique powder brush. I’ve had it for years and I love it. Even if I don’t win, I’m going to make one of these. Maybe more so I can give them as gifts. Thanks Kate.
What a great idea! I love all my brushes but I couldn’t live without my foundation brush.

I’m actually in the process of finding some brushes, cause right now I’m just using Sonia Kashuk travel set. I’m a big fan of the crease brush!!

Great Blog! And I would first put my bare escentials full flawless face foundation brush! My email is knik2008@yahoo.com hope ur having a great day!
my favorite brush would definitely be the round top synthetic kabuki brush! I also have the angled synthetic brush but I use the round top to apply my foundation and it works wonders! your makeup roll is so cute, I don’t sew at all so if I tried… it would be a disaster =(
I’ll hear from you through my email at b.quachh@gmail.com soon… right???? hehe
Such a great idea, love it! My favorite brush is my Sonia Kashuk blush brush. It is SO soft! Again, great idea! mfahilga@yahoo.com
Awesome. I have been trying to figure out what to put my makeup brushes in so they are not scattered. (My bobby pins stand in a small baby food jar…perfect!). I don’t have a sewing machine so let’s hope random.org picks ME! 😉 I love my Bare Minerals max coverage concealer brush but also the BE kabuki brush and angled eyeshadow/liner brush. Hard to pick a fave! By the way, I LOVE the key on your giveaway roll. I am wanting a key necklace so bad!

MAC Brush #239 Eye Shader!
Honestly, I’m am shocked how many brushes you have! I just wish I understood what they were all for because I’m sure they are amazing! Guess I need to read your blogs about makeup more often 🙂 I have 5 brushes and my favorite is probably my blush brush! I guess it’s because I can’t live without blush….it totally changes what I look like, can’t live without it!
I have to say I can’t believe how many brushes you have! I wish I knew what they were all for because I’m sure they are amazing! I only have 5 brushes and my favorite has to be my blush brush because I can’t live without blush! It totally changes my look!
I am so impressed that you made up your own pattern! I could never! I have to follow instructions exactly…luckily we have people like you who can do stuff like this!
My favorite makeup brush is the stippling brush.
ischalyn@gmail.com
love it! My favorite are the Bobbi Brown brushes…they were my first “real” brushes.
maneyrk(at)gmail
Such a creative idea! Well let’s see… My favorite brush has to be Sonia Kashuk’s powder brush. It’s soft and easy on the skin, allows full coverage, and it’s been the faithful brush in my bag for some years now. And just for kicks, I’ll add that my other favorite brush next to that is the Bare Escentuals concealer brush. Perfect for extra coverage on those needed areas!
My absolute favorite brush is the MAC 193 angled foundation brush. Without this little beauty, I would die. I get complete all-over coverage with a very naturally smooth look, and the angle is perfect for getting around the eyes and mouth. Definitely worth every penny!

My fave is bare minerals full tapered blush and eye. I use the blush end for my bare minerals powder and the eye end to dab a little under my eyes! Pjkerr0702@aol.com
Love this!! I have 2 favorite brushes that I can’t be without…the Sonya Kashuk blending brush & the MAC 217. They’re both perfection in my eyes 🙂

Love my all natural kabuki brush for my mineral powder used for my all over finishing look…its soft and with the mineral powder I feel as though I’m not wearing any make-up….I would go into my eye brushes by sephora, but that would be a novel on its own…love the brush roll…great idea!!

Love the brush bag. At the time i haven’t used brushes, didn’t really know how to until I seen your tutorial. WOW how easy is that, you have motivated me and I wonder how could I have used the little sponges for so long. What brushes would you recommend for a starter? Agatha

What a cute idea! My favorite brushes are anything by Bare Escentuals, but I especially love the Feather Light brush. I use it to apply blush. It gives me just the right amount!
Got any tips on cleaning brushes? Mine need a good clean!!

I love this giveaway!! I have only one lonely foundation brush but would LOVE this bag to put all my paintbrushes in!!!
I really love the Bare Minerals eye brushes I have collected them with various boxed set but my favorite is the crease brush. It gives me the best angle to get that smokey eye look. Right now I have no organization for my brushes. I love what you made!!
victoria_salv@yahoo.com
I have some Mary Kay brushes that I really love. They are all eye shadow brushes, and I love all of them!

I just found your blog and LOVE IT! I tried several of your hair tutorials and discovered I need new products! On my way to cuter hair and make up! 🙂 My favorite brushes are my eye shadow and blush brush. Thanks!!
kduthrie@gmail.com
While I cannot afford the MAC brushes I so very much long for one day…I would use the brushes which get me through my make up with every so thrifty paintbrush set I use for make-up (a trick a friend taught me who was a makeup artist for MAC!!)
LOVE THIS!!! My favorite brushes would be from MAC. I have almost everyone that they sell! Without a good brush, makeup is nothing!

I don’t have a fav. but i would love to start collecting and see what I do love best! 🙂

Hi Kate – This is a wonderful idea!! I love my blush and powder brushes from Sephora – they are high quality, very soft and the bristles don’t fall out when you wash them.
I was thinking about purchasing a sewing machine .. do you recommend any one in particular?
THANK YOU!!

I love the cheap eye shadow brushes I get at target. They work just as well as many other name brands but they only cost a couple of bucks.

I love my kabuki brush from Bare Escentuals! it helps me make sure all my make up is blended not only on my face but on my neck as well, which seems to be a problem area from most women. my email is: maleliefeld@gmail.com
I love this! So cute and practical! 🙂 I’d love one! I’m new to your blog but am a little obsessed and am getting my hair cut today and using some of your pics and tips! 🙂 timetoshine (@) gmail (.) com
I honestly don’t know what all of the different brushes are called, but I can’t live without the one I use to apply translucent powder. I would love to win this brush holder! It would give me a reason to learn about all of those brushes!
wundergrl21@gmail.com
My sister in law has one of these and it looks so functional. Would love to try adding one to my life. What a great idea!

I love my brush that is a general shadow depositor. I use it every day. Not sure if it has a real name. I would love to learn more about different brushes since I know htey make make-up application easier. cmcrandell@gmail.com
My favorite brush is my kirkland powder brush. It’s so soft and soothing! But if I had a sweet brush roll like this I wouldn’t use it for my makeup brushes: I just started taking a painting class and would rock my brush roll in class!

I love using a lip brush! I think you have more control on the depth of color more than when you just apply lipstick directly to your lips. Thanks for all your great tips! Love the brush case!
kimnbell@yahoo.com
My favorite is a very thin, angled eyeshadow brush that I can use to put a thin layer right at my eyelash line. I have a lot of trouble putting eye-liner on, and this one does the trick! Love the brush roll…and all your other projects!

I don’t know if my post went through or not, I was having technical difficulties. I love this DIY project. Wish I could find the time to make one (maybe I won’t have to if I win). I love, love, love my foundation brush by Estee Lauder.
I am actaully just getting into makeup so I really don’t have a preference as of yet! I’m 26 so better late then never, right?

This is a brilliant idea. So much better than all my brushes crammed in a pencil case inside my makeup bag!
Fave brush? A big, fluffy blush/bronzer brush. I think it is Smashbox or tarte.
I love all my bare escentuals brushes!
I love all my Mac brushes. I own almost every one! Makeup is nothing without a good brush to apply it with! Smithlindsay94@gmail.com
This is a great giveaway! My bronzer brush is my favorite.

This is great as I’ve been trying to look around for empty pouches to buy but they’re always sold with brushes (I’ve got more than enough that I need to organise into pouches!). Turns out empty pouches on its own are pricey (and pricier than those sold with brushes already) so this has inspired me to rather design my own!
Thanks again!

Wow, I am so impressed, very resourceful!
