Organising: Jewellery

Some of us can pay thousands for a custom designed jewellery organiser/organisation system. But most of us... well. Can't. But I love seeing some of us have gotten creative with it.

Just some inspiration for organising those littlies:


Easy peasy done... take the backs from old gilt dressing table trays and thread wire through at intervals! Picture this sprayed a lovely bright yellow enamel!

I must say, this one I do like. Inspired by George Nelson's drawers, Angie's hacked Ikea and come up with a really good compromise! One for the projects for me.

For those of us who have room in our bedrooms for a dressmaker's mannequin, this makes a stunning feature.

Vintage egg trays are great for storing earrings and rings...

And my own solutions:

Inspired by Decor Amor's jewellery organising post, I started a while ago collecting pretty small dishes and nipping from my dinnerware collection some quaint pieces. Have started to use them too. (Master bedroom reveal soon.)


These French-inspired wire frames for holding photos and letters and cards. I got one on impulse (clearance!) a year ago intending to display some cards and photos. I found it bent my precious photos, disappointed, it was abandoned. After I painted and organised Hannah's room soon after moving, I needed something for Hannah's growing motley collection of hair pretties, brooches, necklaces and bracelets. Walah!
