Necklace/Bracelet Organizer
Now that you’ve created your own custom drawer organizers (last week’s post) you might be like me and have a plethora of wood organizers with no home….so sad… Not to worry, a little spray paint, hooks and you can re-purpose them to organize your necklaces, earrings and bracelets.
Fish Tackle Box to Earring Sort
I still had lots of earrings that needed a home. I checked out the fancy clear organizers they had at Target (oh, Target, how I love thee…) but they were rather pricey. I stumbled over to the sporting good section and saw these — fish hook organizers — I think they are called tackle boxes…yes, my hubby confirms indeed they are. For a fraction of the price of the original organizers, I had just about the same thing — and these are customizable! You can make the compartments bigger or smaller instantly. (Another case of the Sporting Good section saves the day. I’ve opted for a $4 tackle case for makeup travel and for sewing organization. Gotta love thinking outside the box….or even close by the box….or is that even a box at all?)
Jewelry Boutique Display
I found two of these at the local Goodwill and I knew they needed to come home with me. One of them practically jumped in the cart — thanks to my 5 year old. I cleaned her up — I call her Jade — (the jewelry boutique display, not the 5 year old). I use Jade as a decoration and also a holder for the jewelry I plan to wear the next day (as I wear full jewelry every day — don’t you….aren’t you planning on sporting the pearls to vaccum later?!) Okay, so I only dress Jade when I have an event the next day that requires jewelry. I think she makes a nice addition to this jewelry station in my master closet.
Speaking of master closet, it’s one of the three projects I’m currently working on right now…(I need to stick to one and finish, but you know how inspiration goes…) Look for more coming soon.
