Accessories & Jewelry…
They are actually one of the harder things to keep organized because, by nature, they are a bit messy…dangly earrings, multilayered necklaces, chunky bracelets, and intricate costume jewelry.
Easily tangled and frequently used which places them in the high-risk category of a clutter catastrophe.
And before I jump in to share all the amazing jewelry organization products I’ve found and several I personally use, I’m going to give you the real deal…
Keeping my jewelry collection organized has not recently been my strong point!

EXHIBIT A:
Prior to writing this blog post, this is EXACTLY what my “jewelry organizers” consisted of:
- A few broken and worn out Dollar Spot cardboard storage boxes
- A travel zippered cosmetics bag
- All shoved on a shelf in my bathroom linen closet
Which ultimately meant it was in utter disarray…a cluttered and tangled mess!
So now that we got that embarrassing confession out of the way, let’s chat about how it got that way and how I remedied it with a few jewelry organization tips and products.
THE PROBLEM:
No Designated Space:
In my previous home, I had a built-in drawer in the master bathroom which I used to store all my jewelry. It was by no means a magazine-worthy display of epic jewelry storage ideas, but it was functional and worked for me.
Inefficient Tools:
Although I was using “organizing products” to store my jewelry which essentially consisted of old inexpensive boxes from the Dollar Spot at Target, the products did not work well…especially for storing earrings because there were no small compartments to keep them in separate slots and necklaces because they were prone to getting tangled.
My current method of organizing jewelry also was not effective because I could not really see what jewelry I had because in a zippered pouch it was not easily accessible or visible.
THE SOLUTION:
Assigned Space:
To remedy my jumbled jewelry collection quandary, I decided to create space in the top drawer of my dresser designated only for my bracelets, rings, earrings, watches, and pendants – it’s a jewelry drawer only!!
Customized Tools:
I tossed the old broken box cheap-o jewelry organizers and decided to purchase a few items that were specific to my own jewelry storage needs.
The two organizing products I bought were:
A. Small Velvet Stackable Jewelry Storage Trays
This purchase insured that I had storage compartments for small items like stud earrings, but also space for larger accessories like watches and bracelets.
B. A 3-Tier Table Top Hanging Organizer with Jewelry Base Trays
Hanging organizers like this one work perfectly for both longer and shorter necklaces because they utilize vertical space with three tiers to hang jewelry to keep every necklace chain separate.
It also has a small dish at the bottom to hold earrings and rings…or any other small items!
There are several styles available but I chose the nickel version because it fits better with my overall home decor theme.
The third item I used for organizing my jewelry was a bamboo desk drawer organizer that I already owned and wasn’t using…and it worked perfectly for larger jewelry pieces like statement necklaces and bulkier bracelets.
THE RESULT:
I honestly couldn’t be happier with the finished products. All of my jewelry is neatly placed in my dresser that is in my master bedroom closet so it does not look cluttered and unkempt anymore.
I also like that my necklaces are hanging neatly and untangled, creating an organized cohesive look.
If you are wanting to organize your jewelry, I have done extensive research for my own project and have lots of recommendations of amazing jewelry storage ideas with links included to purchase any of these items for your house.
