If you are like most women, it is fairly easy for you to fall in love with a piece of jewelry, buy it, wear it a couple of times, store it inside your drawer, and then forget it ever existed. Out of sight; out of mind. It comes as no surprise that most women have tangled bracelets and necklaces that are hardly usable. If you are looking for an easy way to organize your jewelry, here are some easy jewelry organizer ideas.
Framed Jewelry Organizer
Look for frames that you can attach your burlap, ribbon, or corkboard. Use a glue gun to secure the material at the back, and you can start using it immediately. If you have the corkboard, you can use it to hang both stud and fish hook earrings. If you want the frame to be more multi-purpose, you can also drill small screw-in hooks on the side of the frames to hang necklaces. You can embellish it with lace, flowers, or slather on a fresh coat of paint.
Antique Ice Molds and Muffin Tins
Go to a flea market or a swap meet, and you are bound to find vintage items that you can use to store your jewelry. Beautiful vintage ice molds and muffin tins that are no longer safe to use to bake muffins or make ice can be used to store your earrings. You may find that a quick trip to your attic or garage is all you need to do to find your new jewelry organizer. Of course, you can always decorate it in the style that suits your room best. If there is some rust or imperfections, you can use spray paint to give it a shiny new finish.
Jewelry Tree
A fascinating way to showcase your jewelry is by hanging it on a jewelry tree that you have made yourself. If you live in the suburbs, keep your eyes peeled for interesting looking branches that you can dress up. The best branches are ones that are not too heavy or too slim. Instead of wandering around, you can also buy it from the craft shop. You will also need twine, a heavy vase, and a styrofoam block. Pick the base branch, and wrap several layers of twine around the branches that you choose to attach it. Make sure the twine is fully secured by putting on a layer of hot glue. If you want your jewelry tree to really make an impression, you can also spray paint it gold, fuchsia, black, or your choice of color. Cut the styrofoam block so that it fits inside your vase, and push the branches inside it. Voila! You can start hanging all sorts of baubles on your jewelry tree.
Whether you end up making a jewelry tree, jewelry frame, or using antique molds, make sure that you let your creativity shine through. You will find that there are more jewelry organizer ideas available online that you can mix, match, and make beautiful. If you do not have time to get crafty and make your jewelry organizer, you can purchase jewelry organizers from jewelry shops and craft stores.
