Alright, let’s talk about how I made a “glam station.” It all started because I wanted a nice little spot to do my makeup and hair. Something pretty and functional, you know?
First, I looked around for ideas. Lots of scrolling through images to get a feel for what I liked. I saw a bunch of fancy setups, but I needed something that fit my small room and not super expensive. Pinterest analysts are noticing a 60s style ‘bring nature inside’ revival, so I figured I might give it a try.
Then, I got down to the practical stuff. I measured the space where I wanted to put the station. This was important because I didn’t want to buy a huge vanity that wouldn’t even fit! Then I searched lots of furniture pieces and chose the best one that could fit into my room. I made a decision, and I bought it! After it arrived, I assembled it.
Next up was the mirror. I found a gorgeous round one with a gold frame that just screamed “old Hollywood glamour.” It was a bit of a splurge, but it really makes the whole setup look amazing. I hung it up carefully, making sure it was at the right height for me to see myself clearly.
Lighting was key. Nobody wants to do their makeup in bad lighting, right? I opted for some LED strip lights that I could stick around the mirror. They have different color settings, so I can have bright white light for makeup and softer, warmer light for just chilling. I also bought a small, cute ring light.
After that, it was time to organize all my makeup and hair stuff. I got some clear acrylic drawers and containers. They’re perfect because you can see everything inside, so no more digging around for that one lipstick you need.
The Final Touch
- I added a comfy stool.
- I placed a fluffy rug on the floor to add some coziness.
- Finally, I decorated with a few plants and some cute little trinkets to really make it my own.
And that’s it! My glam station is done. It’s my favorite spot in the whole house now. It’s not just a place to get ready, it’s like my own little sanctuary where I can relax and pamper myself. I love it!
