jewelry organization

It took me awhile to decide what was the best system for all of my jewelry.
I wanted to share with you some of the tricks I've learned.

EARRINGS
---I have a love for earrings even though I'm to the point where I switch between about 2 different pairs.
I still want to keep them organized and open so if I decide to jazz up an outfit I have that option.

I found my earring organizer at Urban Outfitters. (click link below for options)

It's has the perfect amount of openings, holds studs and dangling, and it also rotates so I can see all of my earrings. My particular one is the, spinning bird jewelry stand.

NECKLACES
---I gravitate towards necklaces when I'm in a store. I have too many and I rarely even wear one. Just like my earrings I still want them to be available though.

I discovered that the best organization for this would be a diy project. I went to the local thrift store, got an old frame that had a thick painting inside of it, and then covered it with some fabric I had on hand.
Once I had completed that I just got push pins and then hung my necklaces from there.
It was very simple and cheap and it hangs in my closet.
*depending on the amount of necklaces will vary the size of the frame.

RINGS & BRACELETS

---For one of my birthdays years ago my sweet cousin gave me a jewelry box. I still have it and it holds my special jewelry along with a few rings and a few bracelets. Jewelry boxes usually can't hold all of your jewelry so choose a particular item to store and it will be a lot easier that way.

CATCH ALL

---Everyone needs a catch all. I have a small vintage dish that hold my wedding ring at night along with the two pairs of earrings I switch out. It's nice to have a place just for those items so you aren't misplacing those for any reason.

I've attached some links with great organizers and of course you can search pinterest for some fun ideas also.
