This may be a stupid question, but I bought my color line and artist tote, but I have no idea how to organize it. smileys/smiley9.gif I want to have it so I canbring it with me for one on one's and easily just pull out a color or2 that people are intersted in,and not have to set up the whole thingon them, or be pulling out evey color just tofind the one they want to see. I put all the pencils in the little "pencil slots", but once they are in there, you don't know what color it is unless you pull it out. And, where do you put your lipsticks? Do you put them in one of those big pockets? Which one? One of the clear ones in the middle or one of the ones attached to the side? I hate for someone to say, "hey what does Whisper look like" and I have to pull out every single one just to show them. But maybe it's unavoidable??
I guess I am looking for the best way to organize it so I can find what I need quickly.
Any and all ideas on how to do so are VERY welcome! smileys/smiley1.gif
Thank you!

smileys/smiley36.gif I know, I'm always rearranging mine... I've had to label the color name on them all so I can read them better, the little round sticker on the bottom I can't read unless I stick it a half inch from my eyeball,smileys/smiley36.gif then I have them look first at the catalogue, then tell me which ones they want to see, then I can "see" the names without having to pick them up one by one. All my lipsticks are in the biggest clear pouch, the eye and lip liners are in the smaller clear pouches, and all the disposable applicators are in the flat pouches on the side. I have my brushes in the slots where you put your pencils. My palette goes in the back zipper compartment, along with the foundation samplers, I have one or two each of each kind, and the compacts and powders.

Thanks for the tip! I guess those weren't "pencil slots then"? smileys/smiley9.gif They fit in there pretty nice though! smileys/smiley36.gif I like your idea of labeling all them. Thank you!
