My super fantactic face painting case!!

I think the idea of a Spruce up your Kit thingy would be great!

Suzy, I'm working with my head in the clouds...anything below my waist is under my radar (blasted legs are almost 3.5ft long).

oh lol... I am lazy, I just sit down right next to it.

I like very much!!! No Menard by me either....will start looking for alternate solution. Nice job!

Corinne Rodgers recommended paint pens and I love the results on my Fat Max! They come on different colors!

I like the idea of paint pens! I'm going to try that. Well, I couldn't find the colors I wanted in the paints, so I went with black burgundy and lavender...I don't know why I like that color combination..but I do. So I have the outer doors/lid burgundy and the inner drawers and bucket lavendar. I still have to decorate before I take any pictures, but they will be forthcoming. I like the fact that my box doesn't violate my anti-girly sentiment (it's a long story and involves explosive ammunition) but it's not something a guy would touch voluntarily. The paint is awesome and the box looks like I bought it that way! Naturally, because I am impatient, I didn't tape the box up to paint it...I found a way to tap out the suspension pins and latches and took the box apart.

Yes...I'm insane...thanks for asking.

ha!!! Glad it worked out for you.. I can't wait to see the finished product

wow your case looks cool... I need something like this. I bought a stanley for my leads when Im dj-ing or doing other things with the business, but its not as good as this, it doesnt have drawers or anything!

That's a terrific case, you both put a lot of work into this!
I actually have a cart just like that , that my hubby got me eyars ago for my painting. Its sitting int he garage, collecting sdust!

it's very well done! My entire kit fits in a shoulder bag..haha.

I also sit next to mine...makes everything accessable

Suzy u rock!!!!!

awww!! Thanks

Suzy, Do you mind - what is the silver thing in the third photo?

hmm.... I see a green thing in the third picture... maybe it comes off as silver on your screen... It is just the blunt end of a paintbrush

I see it now! Thanks

Could you please, oh, please give me the dimentions on the entire unit and the depth of each drawer?
I'm looking at having my dad pick this up for me and ship it, but I want to be absolutely sure it will fit my supplies.
Do you think a gallon milk jug will fit in the bottom compartment?
Thanks!!!

you should be able to get a gallon milk jug in the bottom and then some its a great case...i have mine set up a little different but all my stuff fits. i put my scrap book case my sponges towns flyer in the bottom..the top of the case has my book more baby wipes..eye shadow pallets..and my insurance papers.. the 1st drawer has more paint..the 2nd has small rain bow cakes and some eyeshadow brushes and glitter powder...the 3rd drawer has glitter another paint brush holder and misc stuff..I carry my water separate.

wow!!!! what a beautiful kit. it must make u want to paint even more. so cute and fun for the kiddos

I GOT MINE!!!
My dad lives in WI and has a local Menards. I had him pick it up and bring it with him when he came to visit.
Now I'm looking for the plastic spray paint in a color to match my pretty, pretty new banner...
And yes! It is everything I hoped it would be and MORE!

WAY TO GO!!! Isn't it fabulous!!

That is SO pretty!

I LOVE this! Even though I paint standing at a table, I am still looking for an attractive and efficient method to transporting all those little (and big!) things we can't live without. I wonder if I could take a FatMax to an auto paint shop and what they would charge? That would be an awesome Christmas gift to ask my dh for!

Fabulous is definitely the word!!

Kym, did you ever find out?

Suzy, thanks for sharing. I'm soo envious. It's all sorts of lovely.

We don't have a Menards in Canada, and it isn't available for online shopping.

BUT he also cleans the house, does the dishes, hangs and folds my clothes, all while holding down a full time job as a truck painter... Yeah, I think he is a keeper

Then I suggest...you don't marry him!...hahaha!...jk....I have been married almost 41 years...and my husband do a LOT around here now...okay he cooks...does fold my stuff but he has done his own for years...
When I learn to post picture here. I will show you what i painted on my old case...palm tree scene...and i also just got a fatmax about a month ago...and will be paintng on that one. I just use plaid outdoor paint...works great....will probably paint another tropical scene since I think i should really be ...a .... "island girl!"....but can't figure out how to post pics yet...will work on that in the next week or so....
Love learn from you ALL!...thanks for sharing!
