    What display do you use for colour pops?

    Wondering what of these you all prefer to use for displaying colour pops and nail art.... I like the idea of putting my logo in the middle of the wheel BUT I also like being able to have my colours in groups which is easier with display sticks??! Can't decide which to use!

    Where do you keep your wax pots

    Went to a salon the other day and they keep their wax pots in a draw thought it was a great idea as the room looked sooo neat and tidy. Only thing I didn't like is you actually didn't see anything so the room looked a little boring. How do you keep your room looking tidy?
