Looking for ways or ideas on how to get a good and inexpensive jewelry box or storage to keep those necklaces and earrings from being a pile of mess? Well, here are some pro-tip we can give you to keep your treasured jewelries well-organized.
• Look for something conventional!
You want something that's both going to look good and be functional. When looking for a conventional jewelry box, first it should be cheaply constructed, doesn't contain all the organizational features you need, and will have an easy access, but will also help preserve your jewelry and prevent them from tangling.
• Or try something unconventional…
Be creative and use the simplest objects you can find at home as your jewelry organizers such as…
o Nuts and bolts organizer for storing your bracelets and rings. We love the fact that the hardware organizer rotates for a quick scan of your jewelry.
o Vintage aluminum ice cube trays for earrings. Even though these are ice trays, they feel glam and chic because of their aluminum coloring.
o Vintage mug stand is a great way to store and display necklaces. You can also spray paint the mug if it's plain white, and decorate it.
• Avoid those tangles.
Long boxes help necklaces--especially those with chains--stay separated, which prevents damage and a lot of swearing in the morning when you're trying to choose one. While space constraints may force you to keep them in a box, your best bet is to hang them. You can buy a back-of-door necklace rack as your necklace display, but I find that tie racks work just as well, have more pegs, and are available inexpensively at most thrift stores.
• Box within a box strategy allows you to customize for your storage needs.
Craft stores sell boxes meant to organize beads, and happen to be the perfect size for small earrings. If you have expensive/delicate jewelry, I'd recommend keeping it in the box you received it in, as that will protect it best. You may also want to consider a separate lock box for truly expensive pieces.
• Think about access.
Which pieces do you wear the most? Do you use your jewelry box when getting ready for bed? Consider keeping a very small box next to your bed to take out those earrings after a long night.
