UPDATE:
Please note, the black ones with caps are pictured for comparison only. I did not make caps for my homemade ones. Sorry for the confusion.
Pinterest, how I love thee! This idea is so simple, I literally smacked my forehead when I read it. I've had the stuff to make these forever and it just never clicked with me till I saw it done. Duh!
I had bought this set of 3 mini daubers with the idea that I would get more of them if I couldn't figure out how to make my own after seeing them in person. Before I even had a chance to think about it, I find this pinterest idea. So, one pack of 32 Dollar Store make up sponges already in my stash....
...and a chunk of PVC pipe from the hub's scrap bin in the shop later and VOILA!!!!!
But I couldn't just leave them like that, oh my heck, no! Had the purtty 'em up and what better to do the job than PINK acrylic enamel paint {by FolkArt}, also from my stash. Psshhttt! Cutest daubers on the block.

What are the lids, they look like they make things stay cleaner in a drawer with them on.
ReplyDeleteThose look like some bought daubers which were posh enough to come with their own lids... Must have a go at making my own now I've seen this.
DeleteHi. Love these! What did you use for the caps? They almost look like roll-on deodorant lids??? lol.
ReplyDeleteWhat did you use as caps for your finger daubers?
ReplyDeleteMay I ask what u used for the lids? I can’t figure out what u used!
