I've got a Helmer!!!! now how do I organise it?

I'm pruning hard. I don't want two helmers, I'm concerned I won't be able to find anything at all. I have a big blue chest with deeper drawers (the Flormars with their bloody great long handles don't fit in the helmer) which will house care and 'accessories' and all oddbodds.
My favourite helmer drawer is called 'pricey but nicey' I also have Indies and Global, Purely OPI, China Glaze and Essie and I already can't remember what's in the other two....

Nope - I'm helmer-less too. Nowhere to put one, and I don't really have enough to make it worthwhile

I'm the 4th helmer-less person here

It's probably only worth getting a Helmer if your collection is quite large. The trouble is, once you have one the temptation is to fill it up!  

i have over 400 polishes, but to be honest, i dont think they sell helmers here hahah... and what i really want is a huge rack :Dso i can see all the polishes

You lot make me feel angelic - all my polish fits in two drawers of my helmer!
The rest have nail art stuff, removers, stamping stuff, etc.
Do agree with those who said it is tempting to fill it though haha.

Ha ha, I am not buying a third (she claims today!)

OH is already working on where he can put my second helmer for me!! Personally I'd like to think I could part with some of them before that happens.

i'm seriously toying with the idea of buying a helmer. I bought 9liter boxes from home base about 6 weeks ago and already have run out of space. Even if I slow down my buying, the existing still need a nice home...

I read on here a while back that they were being discontinued
I really thought back then that I didn't need one, now I want another one  

croydon ikea has 17 in stock... I could go tonight instead of spending a sunny Sat morning in a busy Ikea... will be in and out in an hour...

Are they really going to be discontinued?! If so I may purchase another just in case!!

(To which you replied 'Oh Bugger'.      )

I didn't see a sign on Saturday, so maybe they've sensibly changed their minds  

Yes I remember that, I just thought I hadn't actually heard that they weren't in stores anymore which made me think they weren't REALLY going to discontinue them!

God imagine the uproar if they did!! I wonder if they know what their helmets are actually used for!! Lol

They might just have discontinued one colour? I know they do that with other stuff. I've got a couple of lack tables - you can still buy the exact same ones, but the range of colours has changed. They definitely had helmers a few weeks ago when I went to check out the sale

I have a dark brown lack table but its slightly ruined, due to *ahem* nail polish (I should put down a cloth but I forget) and I noticed the new colours they have - glossy pink!! not sure if thats too girly for my living room. Although it is MY living room...
Might have a squiz tonight.

One of mine is purple  Little bit ruined, but due to being generally mistreated over quite a long time rather than anything specific
