15 TRULY INNOVATIVE JEWELRY STORAGE IDEAS

As a woman who loves to collect baubles and all things shiny, I’m often perplexed about how to organize my goodies.  Take a peek at my favorite 15 ideas for jewelry organization.  Hopefully you can implement one of these ideas into your home.

1.  Strategically place an antique tea set atop your dresser and fill with your most precious jewels.  The uniqueness of the tray and tea set will set the tone for the beautiful jewels that sit stored inside each piece.

2.  What great idea…use a cheese grater for your earrings!

3.  Use an antique dressform to add some style to your room and drape her with your favorite necklaces.  You can also pin a couple brooches into the bust for added storage.

4.  Buy a towel bar or short curtain rod and add “S” Hooks to it as method of organizing your necklaces.  Its clean, simple and an inexpensive solution to your jewelry organization needs.

5.  Picture Perfect!  Utilize some of your unused wall frames as a creative way to display your jewels as wall-art.

6.  Au Natural.  Take a piece of nature (branches from your back yard…or your local Michael’s store), pop into a vase and hang your jewels- its simply beautiful.

7.  Hit up the hardware store and grab a handful of drawer pulls (Anthropologie also has an incredible selection of vintage-inspired hardware).  Screw the pulls into a backer-board (perhaps a piece of wood covered in burlap) and use the pulls as earring displays.

8.  Similar to #6, use drawer pulls as a means to hang necklaces and bracelets.

9.  Stop throwing away those cardboard egg crates and put them to good use!  We’re in love with this idea – its green and super inexpensive…

10.  Another inexpensive tray-style organizational idea is the use of a painter’s tray.  Pick one up at your local art-supply store for only couple dollars and fill with your bling.

11.  Similar to #5, use small table-top picture frames to display your earrings.  String a short piece of fishing wire across the frame and decorate with drop earrings.  You’ll have to remove the back of the frame and lean the frame against the wall.

12.  Pick up some colorful bowls, place in a drawer or atop your dresser/nightstand for a simple and practical jewelry solution.  I like to assign one for rings, a few for bracelets and use #8 for my necklaces.

13.  Put a cork in it and drink! Host a dinner party and put the empty bottles which remain to good use.  Take an old frame, fill with corks (hot glue will be your best friend in this project) and slide your post earrings right into the supple cork.  What a fun idea!

14.  Hang it with style.  Use an old fashioned hanger to hang…jewelry.  This solution works great for necklaces you can unhook and clasp around the bottom bar of the hanger.  Its streamlined and can hang directly in your closet if you’re short on space.

15.  Pull from the kitchen and utilize your muffin tins for a crafty storage solution.
