We have 3 quick tips to organize your jewelry collection.
Buy a Jewelry Box or Stand
The first step to getting organized is establishing a storage system. A jewelry box or stand provides the space you need to keep pieces separated.
A jewelry stand works well for hanging necklaces and bracelets, but we recommend a box to keep earring pairs together. If you have limited space, opt for a jewelry box that can store all types of jewelry.
Out With the Old
Many people have more clothing and accessories that go unused than are worn regularly. Carefully go through all earrings, necklaces, rings and bracelets – how often do you wear each piece? Set aside the jewelry that’s simply taking up space and any mismatched earrings.
If a piece is broken, you may be able to have it repaired or sold to a jewelry store. With less jewelry and more space, it’s much easier to keep everything organized and disentangled.
Travel Tips for Jewelry
Be sure to pay attention to your jewelry when packing for a trip. It can be easy for earrings to go missing and necklaces to get twisted in transit. One innovative tip for earrings is to pin your studs to an index card to avoid losing earring backs! For drop earrings, hook them through loose buttons.
Keep necklaces untangled by inserting the chain through a plastic straw and clasping it on the other end. If you’re short on time, snack-sized plastic bags are an easy way to separate your most treasured jewelry pieces.
