Pretty Organization: Jewelry


I love to accessorize.  I have more baubles than I care to admit (or count for that matter).  With different colors and textures, jewelry collections can be very beautifully displayed.   However, I have had trouble in the past organizing my jewelry in a way that doesn't look cluttered.  Today I thought I'd share a few great ways to style or store your jewels. 
The first option is to display necklaces and bracelets on pretty trays.  





These tray are all very visually appealing- with different materials, stones, and beads, the jewelry laid together looks very pretty.  If you lack counter space, another option is to organize jewelry inside a drawer.  Even though your collection is hidden, you can still keep it organized within small bowls, tea cups, or jewelry dividers.




This divider from The Container Store is a great option to use and fits right inside your drawer.  Here's another great option.  I like to keep my earrings, rings, and pins in an array of pretty bowls, like the last image above.  I got most of mine at Anthropologie, but if you go antiquing, I bet you can find uniquely designed dishware that would be perfect for displaying jewelry.

Here's how I like to display my necklaces:



Once upon a time I was a Stella & Dot Stylist, and you could purchase these pretty necklace displays.  I keep mine in a shelf in my closet.  They Unfortunately, they don't currently sell these to customers.  Here is a great alternative I found on Etsy.  Etsy has many different options available for jewelry organization.  I was impressed!  Check them out here.

So tell me- how do you organize your jewelry?  Do you have an idea I didn't share?  Do tell!

P.S.- Today I am over at Three Pink Dots sharing what's inside my purse.  I hope you will go check out Lauren's beautiful blog!

  1. I need to be better about this! My jewels are basically in a ball on my dresser in a huge mirrored tray. Yikes!

  2. Your necklaces look beautiful displayed like that! I have started using bowls and teacups for my jewels, and also a vintage dalmation figurine that holds bracelets around his neck. It's my favorite!

  11. This is just what I needed to see! All of my jewelry is in little drawers where I can't see it and then I don't wear half of it! Blegh.

    Love your blog!

  13. I'm always looking for new ideas for storage especially jewellery as necklaces in particular so easily get tangled. Lots of inspiration here.
