Storage Ideas

I have been searching for ways to display the mess of earrings, brooches, necklaces and bracelets that I own... I don't have a lot of space and so I've been looking for ideas that are space saving and pretty. This is such a pretty and practical way of displaying earrings. I need to visit a few vintage shops to buy an ornate frame.

And I love this idea too with the pretty hooks and the frames and the small mirror! Its like a little jewellery shop on your wall.

Now I just need to find the time to do this DIY jewellery storage...

How do you store your jewels?

  1. I love the frame idea - it would be a pretty piece of 'art' and it needs to stay tidy!
    Here is another cool one from pinterest which I will eventually make:

  2. I use two unattractive, but practical, clear plastic earring stands from PillowTalk. They each hold 15 pairs of studs and 15 pairs of dangly earrings.

  3. I recently started reordering my shoe collection into those clear plastic boxes from Howards. To be honest, I don't love them. For example, I always knew that my patent Mary-Janes were in a wide yellow shoe box, so they were easy to locate in my collection, but now they're one of many pairs of black shoes in a clear box, so they're harder to locate :(

  4. I use vintage bowls for bracelets & earrings and for necklaces (which i have dozens of) I use a tie rack and hooks p;aced throughout the wardrobe.
    These ideas are gorgeous but I would mess them up pretty quick i think.

  5. kb - love that jewellery holder on makeit-loveit!

    Laura - I like those plastic jewellery holder whatsies but I don't think I have enough space on my dresser for them. Maybe you could tie a coloured ribbon to your mary-janes box to identify them more easily?

    Aneets - awesome idea re: tie racks in your wardrobe. I think if I had a big wardrobe I'd do the same. I unfortunately have only half of a two door built in... well, if I'm being honest, maybe two thirds of it... poor Mr B has been pushed into one third of the built in!

  6. C, what about all your clothes in the spare room cupboard?? And, sadly, the Mary-Janes were just an example, I have the same problem with all my shoes!! :(

  7. L, my spare room cupboard is now clear! The clothes there are either packed up with the winter stuff or in a bag on the way to Salvos :) Two words. Hardcore Declutter.
